Five StarsBy athena roseLoved this book!! The Doctor brings the TARDIS to London, the year 1666. However, the Doctor and his friends are not the only visitors. Death stalks the local woods, complete with cloak, scythe and a skull-like face. In fact, "Death" is an android brought by a group of alien Terileptils whose spaceship has crashed. With Adric and Tegan captured, the Doctor and Nyssa team up with out-of-work actor Richard Mace to try to deal with the deadly android. Can they prevent the Terileptils from unleashing an even more deadly form of the Black Death? This novel is based on a Doctor Who story which was originally broadcast from 15-23 February 1982. This title features the fifth Doctor as played by Peter Davison with his companions Adric, Nyssa, and Tegan. About the AuthorBorn in 1944, Eric Saward worked initially as an estate agent.

I Am the Doctor, Whether You Like It Or Not
Colin Baker. The Doctor who will be remembered by many readers of this article as the only actor to play the part indubitably to have been dismissed by his BBC employers. Even before this unhappy event his characterisation had proved one of the most controversial in the programme's history. ‘Change, my dear. And it seems not a moment too soon.’ Thus spoke the sixth Doctor as he confronted an incredulous Peri and a more accommodating audience in the final part of The Caves of Androzani on March 21, 1984. However, one could say that Colin Baker had been the Doctor for as long as seven months, as it had been in August 1983 that the BBC had presented him as the Fifth Doctor's successor. It was thought in some quarters at the time that Colin Baker was the ideal Doctor of the BBC executives, thought to be reflected in his much-reported ambition to outlast Tom Baker's seven season tenure, and in the outlandish costume premiered at the January photocall, indicating the contrast between the sixth Doctor's outspoken ebullience and his predecessor's subdued — some may think even bland — character. One criticism of the Peter Davison Doctor had been that he, and the stories in which he appeared, lacked humour. The secret of success appeared to lie in the overstatement for which it was thought the public remembered Tom Baker (still the Doctor to much of the audience in 1983/4) and this was reinforced in Colin's first script. ‘I am the Doctor, whether you like it or not.’ The Twin Dilemma was a decisive break with what had been built up over the previous four seasons, but in a sense fulfilled it.

Yorick Sarrail-Dupont Sous la direction de M. le Professeur Laurent Mellet Acknowledgments My utmost gratitude goes to Laurent Mellet, for his support and his faith in me. Under his guidance, I grew up a tremendous amount, both as an aspiring researcher and as a person. Without his patience, I would not have been able to make it through. I would like to thank Colin Baker and Nicola Bryant who agreed to help a person they had never met before and share some of their first-hand knowledge. My gratitude also goes to Matt West, who let me access some of the sources he had collected throughout the years, and to Nathalie Rivère de Carles and her sources on the Commedia dell’arte. Finally, I would like to thank the DEMA department, their encouragement, their feedback, and for the nurturing environment built by the various members of the department.

From Balaclavas to Jumpsuits: the Multiple Histories and Identities of Doctor Who’S Cybermen
ATLANTIS. Journal of the Spanish Association of Anglo-American Studies. 30.1 (June 2008): 85–100 ISSN 0210-6124 From Balaclavas to Jumpsuits: The Multiple Histories and Identities of Doctor Who’s Cybermen Lincoln Geraghty University of Portsmouth [email protected] Through a detailed analysis of the Cybermen’s narrative evolution and changing cyborg appearance, this essay maintains that throughout the decades that spanned its series’ run, Doctor Who addressed key fears present in British society: fear of technology, loss of identity, American economic power and totalitarianism. These fears not only evolved alongside the physical appearance of the Cybermen, but also changed in significance as British television audiences accepted the consequences of technological assimilation and looked to the future in anticipation rather than apprehension. The general field of study on the cyborg in popular culture remains transfixed on the products of the big screen; American cinema is the focus for many works which continue to examine the cyborg as a predominantly American reality, for example Star Trek’s The Borg dominate the work done by scholars in these fields. Fear of technology, or fear of the automaton, is thus depicted as somehow an inherently American fear. However, this essay attempts to correct this imbalance and bring close attention to bear on the Cybermen as televisual figures of a technological complexity; one that is not necessarily American or cinematic, but rather British and televisual in origin and nature. Keywords: Cybermen; Doctor Who; cyborg; technology; television; Pedler, Kit; Science Fiction; British Culture; history; totalitarianism “Resistance is useless… you will be eliminated”.
