the legend

Friday, 28 March 2003 - Reported by Shaun Lyon

The Doctor Who hardcover anniversary book we reported several days ago now has a title: Doctor Who: The Legend. Contrary to the report on BBCi the book is actually written by Justin Richards, not co-written with Andrew Pixley (who pointed this out in a post on the Outpost Gallifrey forum). It is said to be "the most comprehensive guide to the series ever" and will be out on November 13. (Thanks to BBCi, Justin Richards, Andrew Pixley)
