Space Helmet for a Cow: The Mad, True Story of Doctor Who by Paul Kirkley

5.0

The best book about Doctor Who I've ever read, and I've read quite a few (or I've started to read quite a few!) I only bought it because I'm an obsessive completest; I'm not sure I ever meant to read it. I mean, "Space Helmet for a Cow"? How good can a book be with a title like that? Very good.

It's very funny, and spends a LOT of time poking fun at Doctor Who. But not in a mean way - it's also very affectionate about the programme.
