Doctor Who: Shada
Synopsis
Shada is a prison constructed by the Time Lords to hold defeated would-be conquerors of the universe. A scientist named Skagra seeks the assistance of one of the inmates, but he discovers that no one knows the location of Shada anymore, except for an aged Time Lord who has retired to Earth and is a professor at St Cedd's College. Fortunately for the universe, Skagra's attempt to extract the information from Professor Chronotis coincides with a visit by the professor's old friend, The Doctor.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 18
These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
