I'm with you, great books from the best era of Dr Who, Jon Pertwee's run👍

[@Mondasian]

Brilliant video, those copies are in great condition. My favourite from this batch is 'The Ark in Space' where Ian Marter makes it into a full on horror story!

[@JulesBurt]

Agreed mate, Ark in Space is an absolute classic. I loved Ian Marter as an author.

@@JulesBurt I was after that badge cant seem to find it mate do you collector figures

[@JulesBurt]

John, that badge is so scarce, I waited for about 2 years until one showed up on eBay, got it for a fiver in the end, patience is the key mate. No, I have a few figures, but not that many.

Very informative video!

[@JulesBurt]

Thanks my friend!

[@SLPRODUCTIONS]

Awesome video. Also done a couple of videos featuring target books

[@JulesBurt]

Thanks, will check them out!🙂

[@garybryant1501]

The Cover for The Dalek Invasion Of Earth having the film Roboman and Saucer with the First film Dalek design suited it because most fans knew the film version better in the 7Os

[@JulesBurt]

Absolutely, that was most definitely me🙂

[@garylovisi357]

Jules, the covers on these are terrific, they seem to have improved with age from when I remember them first published. Great video!

[@JulesBurt]

Thanks Gary, I love them!

[@tintomara6209]

I remember reading The Ice Warriors on the coach to Blackpool with my Mum and Dad, to visit the Dr Who exhibition. It was when The Hand of Fear was being televised and they had the actual hand of Eldrad in the exhibit. It was magic

[@JulesBurt]

That's a great memory! I remember being at a neighbour's birthday party when Hand of Fear, part 3 maybe, was on!

[@saoirsehann6392]

Loved this so much. I’m thinking of starting a collection as I’ve started to really get into doctor who recently

[@JulesBurt]

Fantastic, they are great fun to collect 🙂

[@tintomara6209]

Wish I still had my collection, many of them were better than the televised adventures

[@JulesBurt]

For sure, very easy to start a collection cheaply through eBay.

[@Blackedoutewoks]

Great stuff! I read quite a few many years ago 😎

[@JulesBurt]

Thanks mate, didn't know you had an interest in these as well. I love these old books!

[@Blackedoutewoks]

@@JulesBurt I read so many in the late 70s and early 80s! I used to get them from the local library in Ladbroke Grove London, so it would have been the first four Doctors only 😎

[@JulesBurt]

@@Blackedoutewoks Right, the most classic period for these books to be honest!

[@Davy.J.Y]

The illustrator Chris Achilleos died on 6 December 2021. He created a fantastic set of artworks for the Dr Who books.

[@JulesBurt]

Absolutely, a lovely man and supremely talented. 👍

[@chrislackey775]

LOVE IT! THANK YOU!

[@JulesBurt]

Thanks Chris, glad you enjoyed it🙂

❤❤ I have a brand new movies that was one of the first Doctor Who books I ever owned dad got it for me for Christmas and I have it signed Now by Terrence sticks

[@JulesBurt]

Excellent, Terrance Dick's was the father of Doctor Who books.

[@kamandi1362]

Great video. Shame how Terrance Dicks went from writing great novelisations to just churning out hack work with the barest minimum page count. A lot of great stories were done a disservice by this.

[@JulesBurt]

I totally agree with you there. I am pleased that some of the historical stories did get decent treatment, some by the original writers.

[@benmiller3252]

The five faces of doctor who

[@JulesBurt]

Indeed👍
