Found an interesting article on the BBC Online: apparently the network was once upon a time nervous about putting together a science fiction show called DOCTOR WHO.
Funny now, considering how long it’s been running and how much money the show has made them over the years… 😉
You can read the full article here, including the debate over the nature of the Doctor’s time machine: should it be a strong visual symbol, like a police box, or should it be an “invisible machine covered in light-resistant paint” revealing to the viewers only “a shape of nothingness”?
Hilarious.
