The Hinchcliffe Years: A Masterclass in Doctor Who

Recently acquired this beautifully produced book from CutAway Comics, The DNA of Doctor Who: The Hinchcliffe Years.

This has always been my favourite era of the programme, and so it's heartening to see that Gareth Kavanagh has produced another winner!  

This large-format book is available to purchase here.

The Daleks' Master Plan — Hardback Update.

 Due to the large number of orders received for the hardback edition of The Daleks' Master Plan: The Making of a Television Serial, I am temporarily suspending sales and conducting a full count.

 

Customers can be assured that all orders received will be honoured, whatever the final tally.

 

The paperback edition remains on sale as normal.

Order The True History of Faction Paradox six-disc collection, and you will also receive a signed autograph from Gabriel Woolf, ten Blake's 7/Dalek art cards, and the full-cast audio drama Daleks: The Mechanical Planet.

Please note: remaining stock of the bonus disc is running extremely low, so copies will be allocated strictly on a first-come, first-served basis.

Ta-Dah!

Another super photo of Sara Kingdom, taken on the 'Hollywood set' for 'The Feast of Steven' (Episode Seven of The Daleks' Master Plan).

 

For the recording of the character's death, an instruction on the surviving 'Cutting Script' reads:

 

'Whip tilt to Sara’s sleeve. Skeleton hand has now gone, in place of skeleton’s fingers traced out in bicarbonate of soda as if they are the remaining lime deposits of what was the skeleton.'

 

This fascinating behind-the-scenes detail comes from one of the 890 endnotes featured in Magic Bullet Publishing's forthcoming book, The Daleks' Master Plan: The Making of a Television Serial.

 Amazing photo of Sara Kingdom, taken on the 'Hollywood set' from 'The Feast d Steven', Episode Seven of The Daleks' Master Plan.

The 'space age machine gun' Sara is holding was designed by Bill King of Trading Post. The prop would appear again during the classic 1968 Cyberman adventure, The Invasion.
