Constituting the largest reference work on Doctor Who ever written, the
six-volume About Time strives to become the ultimate reference guide to
the world's longest-running science fiction program. Written by
long-time sci-fi commentator Tat Wood, About Time focuses on the
continuity of Doctor Who (its characters, alien races and the like), but
also examines the show as a work of social commentary. In particular,
Wood dissects the politics and social issues that shaped the show during
its unprecedented 26-year run (from 1963 to 1989), detailing how the
issues of the day influenced this series. As part of this grand opus,
About Time 6 examines Doctor Who Seasons 22 to 26 (1985 to 1989) - the
end of the show's classic run, starring Colin Baker and Sylvester
McCoy - as well as the 1996 TV Movie starring Paul McGann. Among other
things, About Time 6 answers such vitally important Who questions as Is
Continuity a Pointless Waste of Time?, What are the Oddest Romances in
the Programme's History? and Does Paul McGann Count?
