Doctor Who: The Doctor – His Lives and Times
Doctor Who: The Doctor – His Lives and Times
‘I’m the Doctor. I’m a Time Lord. I’m from the planet Gallifrey in the constellation of Kasterborous. And I’m the man who’s going to save your life.’
He’s made a mark on almost every era of history, and he’s touched millions of lives across space and time. In these pages you’ll find just some of the stories behind those brief encounters, each of them addressing the question that must never, ever be answered: ‘Doctor Who?’
This is the story of an impossible life – of a man who borrowed a spaceship, travelled through time and continually saved the universe – as told by the Doctor’s friends, by his enemies, and by the man himself. Letters, journals, trial records, secret government files and the occasional bit of tabloid journalism reveal the never-before-told story of Gallifrey’s last Time Lord.

MasterKasterborous
October 6th, 2013 - 8:19amBut Who-ology and this are quite different books though written by the same people.
Mister
June 4th, 2013 - 8:04amAll these books contain the same things: TARDIS stands for Time and Relative Dimension In Space, Amy Pond saw the Doctor after he regenerated…
The 2009 and 2010 Official Annuals are practically the same. If you are not going to remove old things, why not update them?

May 28th, 2013 - 12:46amI hope there is a PNG image available of The Doctor in that beautiful font online to incorporate into Who related photoshop jobs.

May 28th, 2013 - 12:45amThere are so many reference books being released this year which is great. I only hope I don’t end up reading the same things over and over again after reading Who-ology.

May 27th, 2013 - 9:12amNotice the least successful Drs are on the right side

May 27th, 2013 - 12:28pmActually no, it goes 1,2,3,4,9,10,8,6,7,5. Basically placing the recent doc in the middle and evening the rest either side.

May 27th, 2013 - 1:50pmPlus the fact that Paul Mcann was an amazing Doctor!

May 26th, 2013 - 10:38pmWhat about John Hurt?
Scott the Raptor
May 27th, 2013 - 9:04amHe is not The Doctor. He is whatever The Doctors name is.

May 26th, 2013 - 7:53pmIt annoys me that the eleventh doctor is always featured the most on these sorts of things. He’s bigger than all of the doctors put together on this cover! look how small the first doctor is!
I know he’s the current Doctor and everything (and he’s definitely not the best), but give the others a bit of respect.
the astronaut of death
May 26th, 2013 - 8:04pmI don’t mind its just the way things work
their not going to have like the 5th or the 7th doctor bigger that all the others are they
McGann is the Doctor
May 26th, 2013 - 8:45pmHe is the current Doctor therefore it makes perfect sense.
What bugs me is that they Doctors aren’t in order, making the lamest Doctor, 10th, the centre of attention among them
and once again, they have tried to make the 6th Doctor as inconspicuous as possible, shrouding him in shadow 😡 how dare they shroud that beautiful outfit !

May 26th, 2013 - 9:18pmlol i just got that joke
MAXP
May 27th, 2013 - 12:10am6th doc’s outfit unfortunately is quite painful on the eyes
olletsoc
May 27th, 2013 - 4:40pmyes, but this is about all incarnations of the doctor (excluding Hurt for obvious reasons), so it would make sense to feature them all in order, like ‘McGann is The Doctor’ said, and to have them all the same size.

October 7th, 2013 - 12:06amsorry MATT SMITH IS TH BEST
I Ended the Time War
October 7th, 2013 - 12:33amNot in my opinion. In my opinion, David Tennant is the best.
the astronaut of death
May 26th, 2013 - 10:55amim getting this it looks fantastic
Scott
May 26th, 2013 - 12:04amLooks like they’ve been a bit too loose with the fake tan to be honest
Mr Evil Fez
May 26th, 2013 - 7:27amLol!

CG
May 25th, 2013 - 11:26amAt lease this is official rather than all the unofficial ones!
RORY DOCTOR RIVER POND
May 25th, 2013 - 11:17amhalf of these books look like they contain the same stuff!
Mister
June 4th, 2013 - 8:02amI’m sure they do.
