Script Doctor: The Inside Story of Doctor Who 1986-89 by Andrew Cartmel

4.0

I bought and read this in Nottingham in 2006. Just reread it ten years later to coincide with my complete DW rewatch finally reach the Seventh Doctor and the end of the Classic series. In 2006, I hadn't seen most of the stories Cartmel worked on. Now, of course, I have and it obviously makes a difference in how the book reads. It's a shame Cartmel and co. didn't get a fourth year on the show. The powerful 1 2 3 punch of Ghost Light, Fenric, and Survival suggest the show was really coming back to full power.
