The Essential Doctor Who: Invasions of Earth includes interviews with:
- Anna Barry (Day of the Daleks)
- Ray Brooks (Daleks’ Invasion Earth 2150 A.D.)
- Johnny Byrne (Warriors of the Deep)
- Michael Ferguson (The Seeds of Death, The Claws of Axos)

Other highlights include a tribute to Nicholas Courtney, a look at Terry Nation’s original storyline for The Dalek Invasion of Earth, Jon Pertwee’s unmade story The Spare-Part People and much more.
Editor Marcus Hearn says: “Invasions of Earth have been central to Doctor Who since 1964. It was a big subject for us to tackle, but we’ve managed to cover almost every major era of the series with some fascinating articles and plenty of rare images. This is the story of our planet’s most epic battles!”
