‘The Doctors’ – behind the scenes of the William Hartnell and Jon Pertwee ‘Doctor Who’ eras coming to DVD

‘The Doctors’ compilation series of classic ‘Myth Makers’ interviews proved incredibly popular with fans of classic Doctor Who (1963-1989). Now, the creators of the series anticipate issuing the complete catalogue of interviews with behind-the-scenes production staff taking centre stage (plus a few extras!).

The first in a planned series of 13 new titles, ‘The Doctors: The Jon Pertwee Years Behind The Scenes Vol. 1’, contains interviews with the men and women who brought the Jon Pertwee era of the show to life. This includes legendary producer Barry Letts, fondly-remembered Terrance Dicks (Script Editor/Writer), Don Houghton (Writer of the classic serial ‘Inferno’, among others), Christopher Barry (Director of ‘The Daemons’ and others), Paul Bernhard (Director of ‘Day of the Daleks’), plus bonus interviews with actors Anna Barry, the recently-deceased Damaris Hayman, Terance Lodge and Valentine Palmer! They are presented by “voice of the Daleks” for the new series, Nicholas Briggs.
