Welcome to the Whoniverse. First stop: everywhere. Six decades may
only be a handful of heartbeats to a Time Lord, but for Doctor Who
it's the adventure of several lifetimes. Evolving over 60 years,
the world's longest-running sci-fi TV show has gifted us a universe
of menacing monsters and unforgettable heroes. You might even call
it a 'Whotopia'. Now you can roam free through the Doctor's
dimension as never before in this special commemorative book for
Doctor Who's diamond anniversary. Join all the Doctors as each
tells their own story. Learn about their legions of legendary
allies - and hear from the monsters' own mouths about what makes
them tick. Find danger on alien worlds and threats here on Earth in
all eras. And explore the gadgets, robots, spaceships, computers
and mind-blowing creations that crowd the never-ending corridors of
Whotopia. Crammed with exciting new images and in full colour
throughout, Whotopia: The Ultimate Guide to the Whoniverse is the
essential celebration of 60 years of Doctor Who.
December 1917. An important visitor arrives at a field hospital not
far from the front, who makes sharp deductions about the way the
ward is run based on small details that he sees. Sherlock Holmes is
apparently only present for a tour, but asks searching questions
about a young officer who apparently died in the hospital, but
whose records have mysteriously vanished. As Holmes digs deeper,
details emerge pertaining to a cover-up that stretches from the
trenches to the top of the War Office, and conspiracy on both the
British and enemy fronts.
In a paved garden outside time, the Doctor is presented with an
awful prophecy: the conquest of all time by the Daleks. To prevent
this terrible fate, the Time Lords have decided on a radical course
— to weaponise time themselves, and destroy the Daleks before
they were ever created. And they want the Doctor to carry out this
extraordinary task! Soon, he and his companions Sarah and Harry are
on the battle-ravaged planet Skaro, where a war has been raging for
centuries. The war is now waged by teenagers using the last
surviving weapons. Everything is desperate. But the Kaled’s chief
scientist has a new weapon that he thinks might just change
everything… This is the original version of what became Genesis

can Leela and the Doctor stop them? 2. The Moonrakers. Life is hard
for the early pioneers building the first settlements on the Moon.

and Zara strive to use their powers for good but it’s clear they

This is the first in a story split across two releases (to be
followed by Shadow of the Daleks 2 releasing December 2020)
recorded and produced entirely during the Covid-19 lockdown.
Together, the two releases make up a 'mini-season' for Peter
Davison's Fifth Doctor as he is caught up in the Time War. Each
part contains four one-episode adventures, in which the Doctor
lands in different times, different places and keeps meeting the
same faces, but as different people. 1. Aimed at the Body by James
Kettle. An encounter with a notorious cricketing legend should be
right up the Doctor's street, but the unexpected appearance of an
old enemy is about to send the Doctor on a quest. 2. Lightspeed by
Jonathan Morris. The trail has led the Doctor to a spaceship in the
far future - where he finds himself trapped in the middle of a
terrifying revenge plot. 3. The Bookshop at the End of the World by
Simon Guerrier. It's very easy to forget yourself and get lost in a
bookshop. But in some bookshops more than most... 4. Interlude by
Dan Starkey. The play's the thing! Or is it? The Doctor is roped
into a theatrical spectacular - but who is he really performing to?
CAST: Peter Davison (The Doctor), Nicholas Briggs (The Daleks),
Dervla Kirwan (Mrs Calderwood/Yost McCormack/DI Wright/Anna-Maria),
Anjli Mohindra (Flora/Kathy Dafoe/Madeleine Williams/Bianca), Jamie

women throughout space and time. Beautifully illustrated by a team
of all-female artists, this collection of inspirational tales
