Step into the world of velvet jackets, UNIT headquarters, and Venusian Aikido with Doctor Who – An Anthology: The Third Doctor. This essential guide takes readers on a thrilling journey through every televised adventure of the Third Doctor, portrayed by the iconic Jon Pertwee.

Exiled to Earth by the Time Lords, the Doctor forges an alliance with UNIT to defend the planet from alien invasions, megalomaniacal scientists, and ancient evils. With the help of steadfast companions like Liz Shaw, Jo Grant, and Sarah Jane Smith — and alongside the ever-suspicious Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart – the Third Doctor brings a unique blend of action, charm, and scientific brilliance to every encounter.

Inside this comprehensive episode-by-episode companion, you’ll find: Detailed synopses and behind-the-scenes insights for each story; Key character developments and returning villains like the Master, the Silurians, and the Daleks; Commentary on themes, production, and the evolving nature of the show during the early 1970s; and A celebration of Jon Pertwee’s legacy and his lasting impact on the Doctor Who universe.

Whether you’re a lifelong fan or a newcomer to classic Who, this anthology offers an engaging retrospective on one of the most dynamic and influential eras in the show’s history.
