What is the Movie folks keep referring to and how can I see it?
SA) Doctor Who The Movie (1996) made by The BBC and Fox. It’s on DVD. LA) After the original series stopped being produced in 1989, several attempts were made to revive it, but the only one that saw light of day was a TV special starring Paul McGann as The Doctor. It is out on DVD, known only as Doctor Who The Movie (1996), so get it from your usual DVD retailer/rental. There were two other movies from the sixties starring Peter Cushing as Doctor Who. These were adaptations of the first two Dalek stories from the TV series. Intended as a pilot for a possible new series, nothing else emerged from it, leaving Paul McGann as the George Lazenby of Doctor Who.
