Our next story in the regular series is the last of the pure historicals—making it the perfect time to reflect on the place of the historical adventure in early Doctor Who. To mark the occasion, Tim is joined by historian, broadcaster, and co-host of the acclaimed The Rest Is History podcast, Dominic Sandbrook. Dominic’s work on post-war Britain often considers how television both shaped and reflected the culture of the time—Doctor Who included. In this special episode, he discusses his love for the show, the historicals, their context, and how they fit into the broader legacy of the show’s formative years. So pull the caravan into a way station, put the human sacrifice on hold and delay storming the Bastille, because the podcast hiatus is over, literally the rest is history. (Sorry).
