The War Games saw the end of black-and-white Doctor Who. This documentary examines the artistic limitations - and advantages - of monochrome.
A 55-minute documentary, detailing the creation of Doctor Who, including a rare interview with creator Sydney Newman, and new interviews with producer Verity Lambert, directors Waris Hussein and Richard Martin, actors William Russell and Carole Ann Ford, title sequence designer Bernard Lodge, and TARDIS sound effect creator Brian Hodgson
Bernard Lodge graduated from the Royal College of Art, and went on to work for the BBC from 1959 to 1977. Known for his work on the television series Doctor Who, he designed the first four series logos, and the first five title sequences between 1963 and 1980. After leaving the BBC, Lodge set up a production company with Colin Cheeseman, in Soho. A pioneer in designing for computer graphics, which was still in its infancy, he worked on a variety of projects including effects for Ridley Scott's Alien, and Bladerunner. A innovator of graphic design in television, in 1974, he won a Royal Television Society Award for Best Graphics. These days Bernard can be found exploring the art of printmaking from his studio in Brighton.
