172: David Whitaker in an Exciting Adventure with Television

As we near the end of the 60th anniversary month, we're turning the clock back to look at one of the most important people involved in the creation of Doctor Who - David Whitaker. The original story editor wrote for the first three Doctors, became the first person other than Terry Nation to create adventures for the Daleks, but is often overlooked for this contribution to the show. We chat with author Simon Guerrier about his new book, from Ten Acre Films, looking at the works of David Whitaker, and Kenny, Dave, John and Steevie discuss their favourite stories which he wrote.

Om Podcasten

A podcast discussing Doctor Who-related items, more often than not in threes, whether stories, guests, or anything else. Featuring Big Finish's Kenny Smith, and in the early episodes, regular appearances from Tom Harris (the former Labour MP) and David Steel (not the former Liberal Party MP, MSP and leader). Dave still appears, as do Dr John Bollan and Stephen Day, with Tom fleetingly materialising. We also have a host of great Doctor Who guests using "Kenny's bottomless address book" (c) David Steel.
