An Adventure in Time and
Space - 2013 A one-off drama travels
back in time to 1963 to see how the beloved
Doctor Who was first brought to the small screen.
Actor William Hartnell felt trapped by a
succession of hard-man roles. Wannabe producer
Verity Lambert was frustrated by the TV
industry's glass ceiling. Both of them were to
find unlikely hope and unexpected challenges in
the form of a Saturday tea-time drama, time
travel and monsters! Allied with a team of
brilliant people, they went on to create the
longest-running science fiction series ever, now
celebrating its 50th anniversary. A must see
drama for all Doctor Who and drama fans alike.

Adventure in Space and Time is written by Mark
Gatiss, executive produced by Mark Gatiss, Steven
Moffat and Caroline Skinner and directed by Terry
McDonough.
