Trivia

This compiles decades of convention footage where cast members gradually became more honest about production nightmares as BBC contracts expired.

Cultural

The Peter Davison era (1982-1984) represented Doctor Who's desperate attempt to compete with glossy American sci-fi like Knight Rider, resulting in the infamous 'sticks of celery' costume decision.
