review 1: Oh my. As a Doctor Who fan, I thought this would be an interesting read about a fantastic lady. I've just finished it and it's left me on the verge of tears. Although it is an autobiography, it is also a moving tribute to Elisabeth Sladen, and all those she worked with.This was a book I didn't want to put down, and the further in I got, the harder it became. I never realised the full extent of her acting credits and I love the way she covers them all. This book is both witty and serious, fun and moving. Definitely recommend it for any fans of the show, or the lady herself.R.I.P. Elisabeth Miller
review 2: Highly entertaining, this gives a huge behind the scenes insight into early Doctor Who, and many of the actors and behind-the-camera people involved - a... morelong with a glimpse into the nuts and bolts of being an actress.Quite a few tasty bits of gossip as well, and particularly interesting for the light it shines on Jon Pertwee, and early Who script development. The indifference of some of the directors toward anyone but the Doctor, and some of the uncomfortable sexism which was embedded in the times.Very interesting to learn that the Doctor was totally going to wipe out the Daleks until Tom Baker stood firm on the likelihood of the Doctor committing genocide. less
