So close, you can feel their fire. So thrilling, you must be there ...' In 1965, two American filmmakers took the BBC's Doctor Who television series to the cinema. Starring Peter Cushing, Dr. Who and the Daleks and Daleks - Invasion Earth: 2150AD brought a colourful world of Dalek invaders and a time-travelling Police Box to the big screen for the very first time. In the decades since, many other filmmakers have tried and failed to replicate the success of those two movies. Barely a year has gone by without someone, somewhere, trying to make a new motion picture based around Doctor Who. Through new interviews with those involved and never before published paperwork from the British Board of Film Censors, the story of Doctor Who's difficult relationship with the cinema can now be told. This is the complete story of the few Doctor Who films that were made and the many more that were not. It is an exciting adventure of scarecrows, yeti and the deadly game of cricket. It is also a cautionary tale of a hopeless place called 'development hell' and the souls of the many lost motion-pictures that have ended up there.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Norton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1845839307\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781845839307\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Telos Publishing Limited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/13\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.65d","brand":"Charles Norton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44170027860223,"sku":"9781845839307","price":24.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f4db9dae-befb-4ea2-94d6-8b9ea13bfd42.jpg?v=1689656386","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/now-on-the-big-screen-charles-norton-9781845839307","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
