And for all you Dr Who fans out there – scriptwriter Andrew Cartmel will be talking about the claims that in the 80s the Time Lord wasn’t just battling Cybermen and Daleks, but Mrs Thatcher too.
Andrew Cartmel was a writer for Doctor Who in the late 80s and rumour has it that another “classic series” writer, TERRANCE DICKS, will also be making an appearance.
