Doctor Who the Handbook: The Fifth Doctor (Doctor Who Series)

About this book

When Peter Davison took over the part of the Doctor in 1982 he was already a familiar face on British television as the much-loved star of All Creatures Great and Small. Within a few months Davison had won acceptance for his sensitive portrayal and starred in some of the most adult and arguably best-written stories in the programmes history. This book is an in-depth study of Peter Davisons tenure as the Doctor including a profile of the actor a critical summary of each story in which he starred an extensive feature on the 20th anniversary special THE FIVE DOCTORS and much more. The authors have established their reputation with best-selling books such as THE SIXTIES and THE SEVENTIES and their acclaimed work on the three previous books in the handbook range.
