Talking Doctor Who – 60th Anniversary Documentary Presented by David Tennant
BBC4 will premiere a special documentary titled ‘Talking Doctor Who’ in celebration of the show’s 60th anniversary in November.
Presented by the Tenth and Fourteenth Doctor himself, David Tennant, the 60-minute documentary promises a nostalgic journey through the classic era of Doctor Who.
Programme synopsis:
As part of the 60th anniversary celebrations of Doctor Who, David Tennant time travels back through the BBC archives to tell the story of the Doctor’s classic era, with a selection of rarely seen interviews and clips covering William Hartnell’s first incarnation right through to the seventh Doctor, Sylvester McCoy.
On the way, David compares some of his own experiences with the actors who came before him and shares special archive moments that reveal, amongst other things, how to film a regeneration, which actor was a master of modern gadgetry – including a collapsible caravan – and what the factors were that helped to decide how a Doctor selects his own individual and distinctive costume.
‘Talking Doctor Who’ airs on Wednesday, 1st November at 7.30pm on BBC4.
