They lumbered through space,lurched from the sea,slimed along ventilator shafts and even visited St Paul's Cathedral.They were the scourge of the Doctor's many lives: they were the monsters.
Sending millions of children scurrying behind the sofa each week,Doctor Who has been host to some of the most weird and wonderful species ever to emerge from the imagination.Daleks,Ice Warriors,Sea Devils, Cybermen . . . whether they dreamed of intergalactic conquest or simply wanted to survive,the Doctor has met them all.'A Book of Monsters' takes you behind the scenes of Doctor Who to meet the monsters and their makers.
