Doctor Who turns 60!

Craig Charles celebrates Doctor Who turning 60 with Sophie Aldred, who played the role of Ace on the show. Fancy picking some Time Lord rock for the programme? Get in touch!

In celebration of Doctor Who turning 60, Craig chats to Sophie Aldred, who played the role of Ace on the show, and quizzes her on medical terms in a slightly off-brand game of 'Doctor Who?'

He also learns all about how the 大象传媒 is bringing its unique and extensive Doctor Who archive collections together for the first time across television, images, documents, music and radio, to tell the story of the ground-breaking series.

Also on the show, we will be opening up the Box that Rocks, playing three of the very best examples of Time Lord rock! And we will be playing a quick game of 'Either/Or' - two songs, same title, you decide which one gets played! To get involved, e-mail: craig@bbc.co.uk
