Welcome to the final week of our four-episode William Hartnell mini-season. The Romans is released in paperback in September 1987 and is the fourth straight Doctor Who novelization to come out of the First Doctor era.

Here on Doctor Who Literature, Jason Davis is back for the week to talk us through The Romans in both its print and TV incarnation. We also discuss lots of classic film and TV contents, and the particular perils of being an American Doctor Who working retail in the late 1990s.

Follow the Jason Davis by signing up for his irregularly offered newsletter at HumanityIsMyBusiness.com. Buy his book, Writing the X-Files, there or at Amazon, or books he edited from their respective authors: Stuntlady by Sandra Gimpel and Pleasure Thresholds by Patricia Tallman.

We pay our respects to William Russell, the actor who played Ian Chesterton, Doctor Who's original leading man. With Russell, Ian proved to be a solid and dependable man of action and reason. Along with Jacqueline Hill, who played Barbara Wright, the two provided the moral centre for the early show, which relied on their decency, normality, and dependability to guide the viewers in the early mid-1960s along this amazing adventure in space and time. The programme will likely never see another character like Ian again. The opening music is from "The Chase" soundtrack composed by Dudley Simpson and the closing music is from "The Aztecs" composed by Richard Rodney Bennett and performed by the BBC Concert Orchestra in 2021. We recorded this episode on 15 July 2024.

Welcome to the final week of our four-episode William Hartnell mini-season. The Romans is released in paperback in September 1987 and is the fourth straight Doctor Who novelization to come out of the First Doctor era.

Here on Doctor Who Literature, Jason Davis is back for the week to talk us through The Romans in both its print and TV incarnation. We also discuss lots of classic film and TV contents, and the particular perils of being an American Doctor Who working retail in the late 1990s.

We pay our respects to William Russell, the actor who played Ian Chesterton, Doctor Who's original leading man. With Russell, Ian proved to be a solid and dependable man of action and reason. Along with Jacqueline Hill, who played Barbara Wright, the two provided the moral centre for the early show, which relied on their decency, normality, and dependability to guide the viewers in the early mid-1960s along this amazing adventure in space and time. The programme will likely never see another character like Ian again. The opening music is from "The Chase" soundtrack composed by Dudley Simpson and the closing music is from "The Aztecs" composed by Richard Rodney Bennett and performed by the BBC Concert Orchestra in 2021. We recorded this episode on 15 July 2024.
