Doctor Who: 60 Years of Friends and Foes
Sue Perkins explores how Doctor Who has reflected our social history on and off screen - from advances in technology to politics, violence, gender and sexuality.
As Doctor Who celebrates its 60th anniversary, Sue Perkins explores how the programme has reflected our social history across the decades both on and off screen. From advances in technology to politics, violence, gender and sexuality.
Featuring archive footage, interviews and new conversations with showrunner Steven Moffat, script editor Andrew Cartmel, former companions including Anneke Wills, Katy Manning and Janet Fielding, and the voice of the Daleks Nicholas Briggs along with Dalek Operator Barnaby Edwards. Also, there's analysis from several academics who have published books on the subject.
Sue examines how progressive the show has been, questioning if our favourite time traveller has kept with the times.
