Graham Williams

Author

Graham Williams was a British television producer and writer who served as producer of Doctor Who from 1977 to 1980, overseeing some of the show's most popular and memorable serials. His novel Doctor Who: The Nightmare Fair is a novelisation of a serial that was written for the show but never produced due to the programme's hiatus in... 1985. The story features the Sixth Doctor and was later adapted into other formats as part of Doctor Who's extensive expanded universe. Williams's tenure as Doctor Who producer was notable for its emphasis on humour and adventure, often influenced by his love of literary genres and popular fiction. He worked closely with script editor Douglas Adams, whose involvement brought a distinctive comic sensibility to the programme. Williams died in 1990, but his contributions to Doctor Who have been celebrated by fans and historians of the programme. The audiobook edition brings this unproduced adventure to listeners who appreciate the rich literary tradition that surrounds Doctor Who and the stories that might have been. Read more Show less
