Doctor Who - The Handbook - The Fifth Doctor by David J. Howe PDF
This Handbook follows the same format as the others, with chapters on Peter Davison - in quotes, the Stories, Who Fax, Rewriting The Myth etc.
Each of the Handbooks has looked at a different aspect of producing Doctor Who; for the Fourth Doctor it was locations; the Sixth was the role of the companion, and the First was the wonderful Production Diary. For the Fifth the authors examine the function of the script editor, in this case Christopher H Bidmead, Antony Root and Eric Saward, who speak about their individual contributions to the Fifth Doctor's era.
This chapter features an interesting table, which sets out the unused storylines that had been commissioned between 1980 and 1983 - Soldar and the Plastoids indeed!
An informative read, which will certainly appeal to those who like behind-the-scenes analysis of Doctor Who.
