I was approached by the BBC production team in October 2014 to consult on a Science Fiction timeline that they were organising, to advertise the BBC's forthcoming Science Fiction iPlayer 3-part documentary. You can view the timeline by clicking on the image below, or visiting the weblink: http://www.bbc.co.uk/timelines/zp7dwmn.

Since I was teaching a new Science Fiction module at Birkbeck (shared across 2 terms with my colleague Dr Joe Brooker) at the time of consulting on this timeline, it was useful to share with students to give them a brief overview of key "moments" in SF literary and publishing history. Please do feel free similarly to share with your own students! To see more information about the iPlayer Science Fiction 3-part documentary click here.
