A wonderful tour de force of the Whoniverse spanning several decades! Every nook and cranny is explored via interviews, adverts, conventions, specials, retrospects, episodes, biographies, investigations, and summations, etc. There is something for everyone. I did my own research and discovered that the first "Romana" - Mary Tamm - had family members who collaborated with the Nazi Germans in Estonia during WWII. Tamm omits this in her 2009 biography (giving a false anti-Soviet narrative left unchallenged by the BBC). Russell T Davis is presented as the greatest thing to ever appear in the Dr Who genre - ignoring all the other great writers who made the series what it is. Also bypassed is the fact that RTD is now single handedly destroying Dr Who with his antagonistic and unnecessarily conflictive storylines and inappropriate actors and characters. Look back and marvel at what Dr Who once was and the greatness it definitely possessed. See how we were educated, entertained, lied to, and manipulated, it's all here. Corporate bullshit was transcended for a time by superb writing, acting, and filming. Enjoy this diverse selection and remember all the voices of those actors we have loved.
