Science Fiction and Fantasy.
A series where hosts talk about Science Fiction and Fantasy in the form of books, movies, TV series, etc.
This is a look at the very first serial of Doctor who, and how the cast was first put in place. It is in many ways an unlikely story for a show that has gone on for 60 years and counting. I find the early stories to be charming and worth a look, and many things from these early stories come back in later stories as well.
