A Review by Stuart Gutteridge 1/10/01
Reeltime's latest video is something of a must see release.It is basically a celebration of the twentieth anniversary of Doctor Who and covers the events of the Longleat Exhibition and the festivities of that weekend. Covering preparations, the likes of John Nathan-Turner are interviewed, as are several of the Longleat staff, giving the viewer an insiders story. Much of the tape is made up of unseen footage (although some has appeared on one of the "Years" tapes, and of particular interest is that featuring Patrick Troughton, which alone should make this tape worth buying. The presentation by John Leeson is enthusiastic, and the other interviewees including Mark Strickson, Brian Hodgson and Richard Franklin provide clear memories. For the nostalgia value alone, this is worth buying, whether you're a longtime fan or a recent convert.
