Part of the Who Watching series
See all formats and editions

Watching Doctor Who explores fandom’s changing attitudes towards Doctor Who.

Why do fans love an episode one year but deride it a decade later?

How do fans’ values of Doctor Who change over time? As a show with an over fifty-year history, Doctor Who helps us understand the changing nature of notions of ‘value’ and ‘quality’ in popular television.

The authors interrogate the way Doctor Who fans and audiences re-interpret the value of particular episodes, Doctors, companions, and eras of Who.

With a foreword by Paul Cornell.
