Tis a good book. Some really good ones released around that time. Have you got the decade themed ones by the same authors? They are also well worth looking out for.

Agreed

'The Sixties', 'Seventies' and 'Eighties' are all essential for the Doctor Who fan. Also worth getting is 'The Dis-Continuity Guide' by Paul Cornell, Martin Day and Keith Topping

Now we just need a 'Dis-Continuity Guide, Vol 2'!
