An Adventure in Space and Time: The Trailer

An Adventure in Space and Time: The Trailer

This special one-off drama travels back in time to 1963 to see how Doctor Who was first brought to the screen.

Actor William Hartnell felt trapped by a succession of hard-man roles. Wannabe producer Verity Lambert was frustrated by the TV industry’s glass ceiling. Both of them were to find unlikely hope and unexpected challenges in the form of a Saturday tea-time drama. Allied with a team of unusual but brilliant people, they went on to create the longest running science fiction series ever made.

    I can remember watching Doctor Who as far back as 1973 but have never been excited as I am now: Doctor Who celebrates it’s 50th birthday on my 46th birthday…. And I feel like a child watching Jon Pertwee for the very first time… being excited and scared with the same breath!

    Its a shame Bradley as the Doctor is not going to be in the 50th.

    The chances of David Tennant or Matt Smith appearing in this special are very low. This is about the BEGINNING of Doctor Who, not it’s present.

    Two words: Simply. Amazing. Except those Menoptera costumes. I haven’t seen The Web Planet for years, but I could’ve sworn they looked more convincing than that. On the bright side, the Daleks, Cyberman, and William Hartnell aspects are looking great! 😀
