Doctor Who fans from around the world have joined forces to raise funds for Scope, the disability equality charity in England and Wales. This unofficial and unauthorised anthology of 50 short stories, interspersed with poetry and artwork, weaves its way through time and space visiting the Doctors and their friends. Along the way, cast and crew share their memories of working on the show and projects from the wider Whoniverse.
Compiled entirely in lockdown in 2020, all 114 contributors have given their work freely in order to support Scope at a time when the charity’s income has fallen dramatically owing to the necessity of having to close charity shops and cancel fundraising events during the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic.
100% of the money raised by this book will be forwarded to Scope.
This is such a fantastic achievement under difficult circumstances and I am proud to have been part of it. The short story format means you can dip back into it time and time again and revisit favourite stories or re-read a particular Doctor's era. A great companion to the show itself, with so many different voices and different interpretations of characters we all know and love.
A great collection of stories relating to Doctors 1-12. The Seventh Doctor's stories are particularly good. Some stories are based during the 2020 lockdowns, which is a really interesting idea, but these come sparingly enough that this isn't an overdone experience. I'd thoroughly recommend it; and it's for a good cause too!
