On this Episode

The Doctor Who community is full of passionate and talented fans. Among those fans is Christel Dee. An avid cosplayer and enthusiastic fan, Christel rose in popularity among Doctor Who fan years ago while creating Doctor Who related content on youtube. Christel eventually went on to host the BBC’s Doctor Who companion series Doctor Who: The Fan Show, and is now part of Doctor Who’s digital marketing team.

On this episode of the Temple Of Geek Podcast, Christel joins our host Monica, at Gallifrey One to discuss her new book The Women Who Lived and chat about what it is like to go from the Doctor Who fan community into the professional world of Doctor Who.

The Women Who Lived

Doctor Who: The Women Who Lived is a collection of inspiring tales of the women of Doctor Who written by Christel Dee and Simon Guerrier. This collection of inspirational tales celebrates the power of women who change the universe.

From Sarah Jane Smith to Bill Potts, from Susan Foreman to the Thirteenth Doctor, women are the beating heart of Doctor Who. Whether they’re facing down Daleks or thwarting a Nestene invasion, these women don’t hang around waiting to be rescued – they roll their sleeves up and get stuck in. Scientists and soldiers, queens and canteen workers, they don’t let anything hold them back.
