1st Paperback[]

In 1997, The Nth Doctor was released by Virgin Books.

Cover blurb[]

Since 1977, when Tom Baker and his co-star Ian Marter tried to produce a movie to be entitled Scratchman, several different companies have held options to produce a Doctor Who movie — including Green Light Productions, Lumière Films, Amblin Entertainment and BBC Enterprises.

These projects have always obsessed Doctor Who fans, partly because they were and remain shrouded in secrecy. The show's absence from our screens for seven years only served to heighten the importance of these projects, as fans were starved of new Doctor Who.

This volume contains a detailed plot summary of each script, an account of the circumstances of its creation and the reasons why it was never made, as well as interviews with the various writers. The book will also explore the roles and input of the big names associated with each project — men such as Steven Spielberg, Leonard Nimoy and Johnny Byrne.

2nd Paperback[]

In 2003, The Nth Doctor was released by iUniverse.

Cover blurb[]

Over the last three decades, several film production companies have held the rights to make a Doctor Who movie. To this day, intense speculation surrounds the details of these unmade productions. Here, for the first time, is an in-depth exploration of the Doctor Who films that almost were, including detailed synopses and extracts from the scripts themselves, interviews with the writers, behind-the-scenes articles explaining how these productions came to be, why the contemplated films were never shot, and the role played by stars such as Leonard Nimoy and Steven Spielberg.
