Who Goes There
" ... Nick travels England and Wales, seeking locations used in the show, both classic (pre-relaunch) and new. Being an odd kind of show, its locations too are odd. This is no glamorous trip. Dungeness Nuclear Power Station, anyone? A flooded china clay pit in Cornwall? As he travels, so Nick discovers another side to our well-trodden country, which is no less evocative. Then he goes to the pub. As in Dalek I Loved You, the travel writing is backed up by Nick's childhood reminiscences and contemporary musings."--Publisher description.
Dalek I Loved You
Nick Griffiths watched his first Doctor Who aged four and a bit. He would have hidden behind the sofa but it was back against the wall and his parents didn't let him move furniture so he hid behind a cushion instead. This book details his lifelong obsession.
Looking For Mrs Dextrose
I glanced at Dextrose's nose, pock-marked, crimson and bulbous, the overripe strawberry that everyone leaves in the punnet. As I did so, his right nostril blew a bubble of snot that might fascinate a small child.' Having completed his quest to follow in the footsteps of intrepid explorer Harrison Dextrose, Pilsbury has been hit with a revelation - that he is the product of those terrible loins. And that's not all. His mother has been left behind somewhere on the globe and he must find her. (Dextrose's own words.) There ensues an unprecedented adventure. A shaman and his curious son, sozzled rednecks, a sweet old lady, nauseating poetry and the Nameless Highway all stand in Pilsbury's way. Is he up to the task? Aided only by his alcoholic father and a grumpy basketball player, our sort-of hero sets off - looking for Mrs Dextrose.
In Dependence
The author travels England and Wales, seeking locations used in the show, both Classic (pre-relaunch) and New. Being an odd kind of show, its locations too are odd. This is no glamorous trip. Dungeness Nuclear Power Station, anyone? A flooded china clay pit in Cornwall? This title tells his story.
The Daredevil Book for Anglers
Anglers can be odd types. Lawyers, bricklayers, bankers and double-glazing salespeople during the week, come the weekend they're up to their wrists in worms, waiting, hoping, waiting some more, hoping again, losing hope, more waiting... But why? The Daredevil Book for Anglers has the answer. This is a surreal and funny expose of one of the nation's most popular sports. Sections include: The Art of Waiting (Sitting around on a riverbank for hours and hours, watching a float bobbing about a bit, without going stark raving bonkers); How to Lie ( Caught anything? It's the question every angler dreads) and Yeah, Course Your Son's Desperate to Go Fishing with You (Why forcing the boy to learn to fish makes you a bit of a git). The perfect gift for the angler in your life.
The Daredevil Book for Dogs
You probably think your favourite mutt is a beast of little brain, who spends all day in front of the fire getting ready for 'walkies' and all night dreaming of bones. The Daredevil Book for Dogs is here to set you straight. This is a surreal journey deep into the canine psyche.
The Daredevil Book for Cats
Have you ever tried working out what goes on in the mind of a cat? Cats are an enigma within a mystery wrapped up in a glossy coat and curled up by the fire. But The Daredevil Book for Cats is here to spill the beans. Companion volume to The Daredevil Book for Dogs, and no more sensible (that's a promise).
Incredible Inventions
Uses color photographs and text to present interesting facts about inventions, looking at some common items such as popsicles, Barbie dolls, and Coca-Cola.
DeadStar
What's it like to reach for the stars, but end up floating in a tin can? Garth Tyson wanted to be the next David Bowie. He fell short. Waaaay short. Burnt out, he fled the stage at Glastonbury '85, having been pelted with mud, and was never seen again. You're familiar with the stars of this era: the Adam Ants, Duran Durans and Depeche Modes - musicians who successfully navigated punk and New Wave to become icons. Bet you've never heard of Garth Tyson - singer, brother, dreamer. Stallholder. That's why we're here. Decades after Garth's disappearance, former bandmates, friends, relatives, lovers, music-biz execs and two fans (you try finding more) reunite to tell Garth's compelling, tragicomic tale. Can any shed light on what really happened to him? Not everyone appears willingly. Here's Garth's 80-year-old mother, Doreen Thyssen: 'I don't like people who dig dirt. Fuck off.' The charmer. Loved Daisy Jones? Try this perfectly squalid British version.
