We continue our coverage of the Classic Dr. Who hardcovers by WH Allen with the year 1987. The company is being sold to Virgin books and sales are not going well. WH Allen is trying hard to liquidate assets and sell as many books in this final full year of publication. The books released are in a random order with only one Sylvester McCoy story making it to hardcover.  Tony Whitt, the host of the Target Book Club podcast, talks about the prose and story of each title citing reviews from his show.  With My Time and the Most Outrageous Offer, this will be a fun ride!

The Universal Tandem company’s imprint of WH Allen produced 9 hardcover books in 1982. The print runs are winding down and this money-losing venture continues and will continue for 5 more years. Some titles are old while only doing one Peter Davison story. Join me and Tony Whitt (Doctor Who Target Book Club Podcast) and we share the stories behind these elusive and highly collectible books!

Since my early start in Dr. Who watching Jon Pertwee as my hero, I got the chance to meet him in the early 80’s. When he passed in 1996 I never thought someone would come along and bring his essence back to the role.  Well, Tim Treloar is doing that for Big Finish! Tim plays the 3rd Doctor brilliantly! Listen to the interview to find out which famous Doctor referred him for the role!  I also have My Time and the most outrageous offer!

The Peter Cushing Dr. Who movies have been a popular part of Dr. Who. With many books and toys marketed to promote those films, collectors have swarmed to buy them up. Now, there is a new book going behind the making of these wonderful films. “Dr. Who and The Daleks: The Official Book of the Film” by John Walsh went to reprint in one hour after release. Today, I talk with John Walsh about this wonderful new book!

In 1981 there were 12 new hardcovers published with 9 novels, 2 reference books, and one reprint with a new cover. The writers strike is in full force making new books impossible to publish, but why not a few old titles in hardcover?  Join me and my guest Tony Whitt (host of the Dr. Who Target Book Club Podcast) on this part of the adventure in collecting classic hardcovers. I also have a most outrageous offer that even River Song can’t fix! See you there! Keep collecting!

It is rare to speak with a veteran Dr. Who companion. Mr. Peter Purves appeared in 46 episodes of Dr. Who with William Hartnell. He started as Morton Dill in part 3 of The Chase, then boarded the Tardis in part 6.  He continued his adventures until a new producer came in and told him The Savages would his last.  In this interview we learn about his role, his working relationship with William Hartnell, his working with Daleks, and a collectible prop that he threw away. I believe this to be my best interview and my highest ranking guest to date! I also have a most outrageous offer that is 10 times the going price of a new item! Welcome to the new year and the 60th anniversary of Dr. Who!  The continuing legend of Morton Dill!

The Most Outrageous Offer! 

Buy this from Amazon new! 

The price has gone up since publication! New copies can be had for $116 (approx)

Peter Purves as the legendary Morton Dill! Takes the piss out of a Dalek as he says. Had no idea it was his audition for Dr. Who.
