This handbook distils that same spirit into achievable, home-friendly projects. Karen Farrington draws on the expertise and ethos of the show's craftspeople to answer the questions we all quietly wonder about: how do you replenish the stuffing in a much-loved teddy bear or sagging cushion? How do you lift a water mark from a wooden tabletop, or stop a favourite leather bag from cracking with age? Rather than requiring specialist tools or workshop skills, the book focuses on simple, sensible techniques using materials most people already have to hand. It covers furniture, textiles, leather, ceramics and metalware, organised so you can find a solution for the item in your hallway or attic. Throughout, the tone mirrors the programme itself - patient, encouraging, and rooted in respect for craftsmanship over disposable consumerism. It's a book for menders of every skill level, whether restoring a childhood toy or simply making things last longer. Presented as a smart, durable hardback, it's designed to be kept on a shelf and returned to as new repair jobs arise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOfficial tie-in book to the hit BBC series The Repair Shop, with a foreword by Jay Blades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePractical, step-by-step fixes for furniture, textiles, leather, toys and keepsakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUses everyday materials and techniques - no specialist workshop required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaptures the show's warm, restorative ethos of \"make do and mend\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSturdy hardback edition built to be a lasting reference on the shelf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thoughtful gift for DIY lovers, crafters, and fans of the series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nKaren Farrington is an experienced non-fiction author and journalist who has written widely on history, popular culture and television tie-in subjects.

The Crimson Horror sees Mark Gatiss novelise his own Victorian mystery, while Robert Shearman revisits the story that reintroduced the Daleks in Dalek. The Witchfinders, by Joy Wilkinson, was the first Thirteenth Doctor story to join the Target range.

In the recognisable Target livery, the set lets fans revisit beloved televised stories in expanded prose, with extra scenes and character detail no episode could show. It's a shelf-ready treat for lifelong Whovians and a starting point for readers curious about the Doctor's many faces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Fourth Doctor era brings The Stones of Blood, uncovering druidic ritual and alien justice, and The Androids of Tara, delivering swordplay on a planet of android doubles. Warriors' Gate and Beyond strands the Doctor, Romana and Adric in a collapsing void as they bargain with the enslaved Tharils, plus two linked short stories. The Tenth Doctor features in Planet of the Ood, exposing exploitation of a telepathic species; The Fires of Pompeii, set in AD 79 on the eve of Vesuvius's eruption; and The Waters of Mars, a siege where infected water turns deadly. The Thirteenth Doctor's Kerblam! traps her inside an automated warehouse hiding a sinister secret, while The Zygon Invasion updates the classic shape-shifters for a modern plot. The Eaters of Light follows the Twelfth Doctor, Bill and Nardole into Roman-era Scotland to solve a lost legion's fate. The TV Movie sends the newly regenerated Eighth Doctor to 1999 San Francisco for a clash with the Master. Together the ten books tour the Whoniverse in one matching, collectible format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTen Doctor Who adventures in one cohesive, shelf-matching paperback set.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpans classic 1970s stories to the modern revived series.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpanded Target-style prose reveals character thoughts beyond the episodes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarriors' Gate and Beyond includes linked short stories for added value.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact, travel-friendly paperbacks, easy to shelve or gift.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA ready-made gift for any Whovian building a Target Collection library.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author(s):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nEach novelisation is written by a different author closely associated with Doctor Who, commissioned by BBC Books to expand a televised story into prose. Stephen Gallagher, who wrote the original 1981 screenplay, personally novelises Warriors' Gate and Beyond, while other titles are penned by writers steeped in the show's eras, preserving each Doctor's voice while adding fresh, page-only depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy You'll Love This Set:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nOwning the full collection means matching editions, no gaps in the story, and hours of immersive escapism spanning decades of Doctor Who history in one satisfying paperback bundle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePlease Note: The individual books included in this listing will be dispatched as per the original UK ISBN and UK edition cover image shown.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Various Authors","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57595255980414,"sku":"PLD25667","price":21.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0642\/4549\/8093\/files\/doctor-who-target-collection-10-books-set-paperback-front.jpg?v=1784448415"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.letsbuybooks.com\/collections\/bbc-books.oembed","provider":"Lets Buy Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
