Honest Trailers Commentary - Doctor Who (Classic)
I applaud Dan for this undertaking, because 11 years ago, I started watching both classic and modern around the same time, boy that classic series is a Herculean effort to get through, even with the stuff I loved.
yeah! this is some effort they did
Dan "gets it". so good, not insulting at all. He wasn't a fan, he's still not but understands. and yeah, that was a lot of work.
Well done Dan!
Absolutely! Love modern Who (I even love Capauldi), tried watching what I could get my hands on of classic Who. It's an effort, some I loved, some I admired their effort, some is some good flashing lights to put you to sleep. It's a mixed bag and a different method of storytelling than modern
It took me 5 years from 2013 to 2018 to watch all existing serials of Classic Doctor Who.I followed along with the podcast "Who's Who" with Breki and Petter in Sweden who speak very good English. I have no regrets watching the first 8 doctors. I watched the series at first on Hulu. I ended up watching a majority of the series on Dailymotion under very different language titles after BBC pulled everything from Hulu. And the last 6 months I watched the 6th and 7th doctor serials on Britbox. It really is a Nerd Everest achievement to watch all of Classic Doctor Who. But if your a fan of Doctor Who, it's worth it to experience how the party started. Congrats for Dan for taking the journey so few ever do in the franchise.
I don't think we as people can't fathom the crazy undertaking Dan put on himself.
Classic Who is nigh impenetrable by modern standards. Even the "best" episodes take forever to get to the point.
Ragerodracir He got paid to sit and watch a tv series. He'll be ok.
jon williams Ifs not just watching, it’s note taking and picking it apart piece by piece.
If you’ve ever done a long essay on a movie, you’d know it takes most the fun out of it.
I did it on a whim. It's not as hard as you think. Maybe it'll get harder later (currently on State of Decay, and I skipped the first two Doctors (plan to go back to them when I'm done with Seven), for those of you who understand what that means) and I haven't not been able to find a single episode.
@@karkatvantas9557 you can't really say it isn't hard when you skipped the first two.
Fairplay to Dan he's now probably seen more classic who than most fans
I've only seen a handful of Hartnell and Troughton episodes, but I've seen every episode from Pertwee onward.
I saw about half of Hartnell, the War Games, then every episode after that. Well I say every, I've been working my way through for three years...
As "a fan of Doctor Who" who has tried to go back and watch the classic series, I give Dan a lot of credit. It couldn't have been easy. I hope he gives the modern series a chance in his down-time eventually. Great trailer and good commentary.
As a "Doctor Who Fan" I have to say, what were you guys thinking!?! You obviously didn't look at the number of episodes and do the maths, if you thought that one mere mortal could watch the entirety of Classic Doctor Who for one project, while splitting modern Doctor Who between three people!
Well done, Dan! Marvellous effort and video.
Dan: on Classic Doctor Who... "It got difficult!" how's that for an understatement.
The thing to remember is in the 60s there were only 2 TV channels, 3 in the 70s, and 4 during the 80s. There wasn’t much else for kids to watch early on a Saturday evening.
Also, it was pretty much the only sci-fi show for kids for many years. The no-budget special effects were the only special effects on TV. In later years there were other sci- fi alternates, and Dr Who lost it’s way.
By the end of the 70s it was just waiting for someone at the BBC with the balls to kill it.
Personally, I was a kid during the 3rd and 4th doctor era. Tom Baker is ‘my doctor’.
To be fair, there was some good stuff in the 80s. McCoy's final season (Season 26) is a perfect season and, if it wasn't for Silver Nemesis, Season 25 would've been perfect. Granted, there were some duds. Davison's easily the worst classic doctor, who was mostly given lackluster stories. As for Colin, other than Twin Dilemma and Timelash, his era ranges from decent to brilliant.
@@BernardJKD
The Davison era is easily the weakest in the original run. He only had 5 good stories: The Visitation, Earthshock, Mawdryn Undead, The Five Doctors, and The Caves of Androzani. The remainder of his stories aren't even worth watching. The only thing his stories are good for is curing insomnia.
Davison definitely had more than two bad stories. You cannot tell me that stories like Castrovalva, Four to Doomsday, Arc of Infinity, Terminus and The King's Demons are good, let alone better than The Visitation. I *WILL* admit that I forgot how good Black Orchid and Enlightenment were.
Got to disagree with you regarding Davison - he's my favourite Classic Doctor with Turlough my favourite companion. Bang on with Colin Baker and McCoy, though.
And of course television was much more slowly paced back then. Even the later "action" shows like Blake's 7 contain a lot of filler if you watch them now. Plus comically shonky sets and special effects it goes without saying.
Dan has earned a lot of cred with taking on classic Who episodes.
A big thank you to Dan for tackling this. As a genuine DOCTOR WHO FAN who has indeed seen all the episodes, the biggest compliment I can give is that this is a *very* accurate and fair representation of the Classic Series! You get everything right and nail the details! Doctor Who was cheap and looked like a videotaped stage play even when it originally aired, and you make fun of all the many, many flaws with smart humor, but in a way that still recognizes why the show is endearing and a cult classic. In all honesty, you should watch a bit of the new series now, because I feel like you would probably appreciate a good number of the in-jokes and Easter eggs that reference the Classic Series, along with the *vast* improvements in the show with it's revival. It would be interesting to see your reaction!
I love that you named it Inspector Spacetime. Community is my favourite TV show, so thank you!
I'm a massive fan of classic Who, and when I saw there was an Honest Trailer I was so worried, because there really is so much in it. But straight after I saw it I shared it around because it got EVERYTHING bang-on target!
Well done, guys! 😊😊 And thank you!
Fun Fact; Dogma is one of those movies that never got digital licensing, so you can't find it online legally.
Well done chaps! Astonishing commitment, especially as none of you had watched either Classic or Modern. Were you high when you promised this?! I watched a lot of 70s Who and I don’t think I’d even try to watch all of the episodes (even the ones that are available). Pretty sure you’ve now watched more Classic Who than me. Love the comment about Nerd Everest!
I believe someone donated $10000 for them to do it.
dm12377 ok, I’d watch a shit load of classic DW for £7000.
You really did represent classic who really well. I’m just disappointed you didn’t use Jon Pertwee’s original reverse the polarity quote.
I thought they should have included Tom Baker 'communicating' with a large green blob with a phallic eyestalk by putting his lips to it.
I am a Doctor Who fan! I watched all the Classic episodes in the year of the 50th anniversary and managed to wrap it up just one week before the BBC broadcast the 50th special. Phew!
Wow! Packing the whole thing into one year of viewing shows true dedication!
Since I grew up watching Doctor Who for the latter part of Pertwee and all of Baker, I have to say Dan's totally correct, it was much better then, watching weekly as the shows (slowly) unfolded, than looking back from the present. However, the end of the Pertwee era with giant spiders that could jump on your back, take over your mind and then become invisible... well, I'm arachnaphobic for a reason, 8 year-old me was bloody terrified.
I'm 58 years old, and have been a Doctor Who fan for 49 of them. (I'd seen about half of the Pertwee eps, randomly depending on where I was each Saturday, often along with my elder brother and/or sisters, but I only really got hooked when Tom Baker arrived.)
You did a great job of summarising the show. I remember watching that ep of "Honest Trailers" a while back, grinning from ear to ear, saying "Yep, fair. Totally fair. Don't care, I still love it!". =:o}
A thing that many fans forget when trying to get people into Classic Who: VERY, VERY FEW people back in the day would ever have seen the whole run up to date, or even have been able to catch it every week since they started (No repeats! Well, hardly any), and yet they were able to get on board and get hooked at almost any point. So the whole "you *MUST* to watch the whole thing form start to finish" crowd are just wrong. You *can* do that, certainly, and I'm I glad I finally got the chance to do it after I'd already been a fan for about 20 years (God bless the very cheaply-run satellite TV station "UK Gold"!)... But a much better approach to introducing new people to the show, IMHO, is to say, "what kinds of shows do you already like?", and then pick an era of Who that has some similarities, and then pick a suitable "on-boarding" episode somewhere near the start of that era. "Watch this one, and if you like it enough, go on to the next one. If things crop up where you want to know what the back-story is, just ask me." ... Just like usually I had to ask my older siblings, or even my Mum. =:o}
You guys are effing legendary after this. And for a good cause too! Congrats on making it out intact.
Damn, that Nigerian satelite Dr. Who episodes story was a sci-fi show´esque plot all in itself!
You have no idea! The guy who found the episodes, Philip Morris, was sent to Africa to look for missing BBC shows. While in Nigeria, he was actually kidnapped by terrorists at one point and held for a $200,000 ransom, which the BBC ended up having to pay to save his life. Through all of that, he made his recovery of the Doctor Who stories "The Web of Fear" and "The Enemy of the World".
@@DrTenochtitlan Wow! I would've never imagined! xD
Not quite as mind-blowing as a terrorist kidnapping, but the mysterious disappearance of Web of Fear episode 3 adds to the lore of the Nigerian find.
thedoctorwhocompanion.com/2017/09/27/whatever-happened-to-the-web-of-fear-episode-3/
I watched/listened to every episode of Classic Who. I absolutely loved every second of it.
Dan did a great job with trailer for the series. Everything said was accurate, and I got a nice chuckle from it.
I guessed that Jon Pertwee would be Dan's favourite haha
Me too, but it might just be because he's my favourite and clearly the best
Whew. That Dr Who Honest Trailer was quite a trip. Now do an Honest Trailer for Saturday Night Live. All four decades.🤪
i've been saying it for months now, but poor dan... you sir have scaled a moutain and i respect you so much for this (i didn't think I could respect you even more but here we are)
incredible feat from you 3 and the editors!!
y'all are amazing
As an actual *Doctor Who Fan* who did see all of them, track down reconstructions, read novelizations, etc., I gotta say - you nailed it! It's a bizarre show, and jumping in like that, you really scratched a lot of both what's wonderful and what's so challenging about it.
At its best, Who is among the finest sci-fi ever created. At its worst, it's basically Plan 9 From Outer Space with English accents. It hits everything in between, and takes its sweet time through all those tones and qualities.
I don’t know how you made such a concise and funny trailer out of all of that. Bravo, Dan!
I can't believe you actually did the doctor who honest trailers!
Yeah, you nailed it Dan: it's very MOD! :') Congrats on having done it too! You're a champion dude! x') \m/
As a Doctor Who fan who has seen every episode, including the reconstructions of missing episodes, I can say Dan did an outstanding job with this. I’m so appreciative that he put in the time and effort to actually experience the classic series. Thank you, Dan. The Honest Trailer was perfect, and the honest commentary discussion proved that even though you came into classic Who cold, you did it with an open mind and you truly experienced Doctor Who. Thank you for not watching a few clips and making broad statements. I know how difficult some of these old episodes can be and it is obvious you did the work. This show shaped my childhood and therefore who I am as an adult, and you did it justice. Thank you.
I am a Fan of Doctor Who, the one who watch all the classic doctor who stories that were available to me at my library. And my favorite Doctor are Patrick, Jon, Tom, and Sylvester. I'm not going to say who is who, but have fun with that. Also to say, I am so much of a fan, that for many years after watching all of the doctor who stories at once. I somehow gain a British accent even those I'm in and from the American Midwest. And that people think that I'm not from North America, it was always a weird time for me.
I always thought the modern series episodes were too compressed. The old serials had more time to develop a comprehensive plot. Even when they went to 45 min episodes, they made sure each story was at least two parts so that a good story could be properly told.
Guys, thank you so much for this. I love this show so much, I have a Doctor Who tattoo. This trailer is perfect and really does the show justice. Props to you guys for really getting the tone and understanding why this show means so much to us. And Dan, love the scarf
Wait there are Star Trek fans who haven't seen the Originals? I haven't seen them all but come on, Amok, Time, Starseed, The trouble with Tribbles, City of the Edge of Forever, The one with the Gorn lol. There are episodes you have to see.
Love Classic Dr. Who.
Thanks again for this very enjoyable Honest Trailer and I'm so glad that you brought in a Doctor Who consultant to help you work through it all.
I'd love to have heard more of Dan's thoughts on the show but I think he's suffered enough.
Oh, and William Hartnell is the best Doctor.
I have watched all he old episodes of DW that were available back in the 70-90s, the movie, and all the new Who.
Which is my favorite Doctor? To paraphrase the Brigadier, :Pleasant fellow, all of him."
And they have the cheek to have the Brig punching the master as an example of a silly fight...
Whoa, what a commitment. I started with Modern Who which I love and only much later decided to go back and pick up the classic era. I do really enjoy classic who, but I certainly didn't watch it chronologically or all at once. In fact I started with the Fifth Doctor because I was most interested in him before going back to Four and then jumping all the way to Seven. I think my friend and I may have stumbled on a very enjoyable way to get a good taste of classic who. We both decided to pick one story from each Doctor and sat down and watched two for each one. It gave us a good sampling and kind of pointed me in the direction I wanted to go when deciding what Who to watch in the future.
P.S. I would say the Modern Who is overall more enjoyable for me BUT the Caves of Androzani is one of the best stories in any iteration of Doctor Who. Seriously it's great.
I watched a bit of the classic Doctor Who, and my favorites have always been the silliest and fun ones. Paul McGann is actually my favorite. That cheesy fun 90s movie really nailed the Doctor Who vibe for me that I love. I also loved Jon Pertwee as a close second. Those are the ones I can go back and rewatch for endless joy. :)
Holy crap!!! Making it through all that is amazing!!! I never personally got super into classic Who, but I did really like The Sarah Jane Adventures series from a few years ago. And she had K-9 still!!!!! :)
Just watching the honest trailer of the classics gave me anxiety.
One of the more fun things about the classic series is to watch the actors sell the heck out of crappy effects. Even though the effects were poor, though, at least most of the time it was something that was physically present with the actors on set instead of CGI that was pasted onto a green screen in post.
Thanks for doing this. I think you captured the spirit of Classic Who even for the fans. There are many stories we love or hate. We make our way through lots of walking across fields, down hallways etc. I would disagree that "most people" these days only know about Modern Who. The viewership was declining for a few years in the Classic era, and even in the Modern era the numbers have gone down the past few seasons. That means there were more Classic fans to start with. I can't say how many (like me) made the transition. What you did not cover at all was the companions. The era that a Classic fan started watching is marked by their first Doctor, of course, but also the companions.
Well done Screen Junkies. Very happy to have been shown all these episodes when I was young by my Dad who grew up with these. I love all Dr Who, but the classics the ones I prefer.
I’m seein’ double here! FOUR TRAILERS!!?
Dans a hero for getting through the classic slog
Is Dan actually wearing a Danger Mouse T-shirt (surely that didn't make it across the pond)?
We love Danger Mouse. -- Roth (and Dan's T-shirt)
Crumbs...
I saw it on Nickelodeon when I was a kid and I found myself studying abroad in London back in 2004, which is when I bought the shirt. It might be the oldest article of clothing I own! - Dan
He’s the greatest...
@@fandomentertainment what do you think of the new version?
I grew up with the 3rd and 4th Doctor, watched it religiously from then on, and even I've only watched 2/3 of old Who, because they were pumping out over 40 episodes a year in the 60s. Still, my favourite Doctor is Sylvester McCoy (#7), as they totally revitalised things in the last two years before being cancelled (and laid the groundwork for a lot of the modern era). Most underrated Doctor!
But I don't go back and watch it, as it's all rather dated, and there's far too much good TV these days. It was great watching these trailers though, so your sacrifice has been appreciated.
Well done Dan. I really enjoyed catching up on the show when they showed re-runs back in the early 90s when it wasn't on the air and I've had the pleasure of meeting Peter Davidson so a lot of fond memories. It's great that you were able to do this and you certainly did this weird little show justice.
I started watching Classic Who with Tom Baker when I was 8. I was in Canada, so I got it late Saturday nights on PBS from the US. They aired Who mostly in sequence with a whole serial as one episode. When YTV came on the air in Canada they started at the VERY beginning with Hartnell. I am proud to say I have watched every single Doctor at least once. Most of the second Doctor's adventures are erased or hard to find. Tom Baker is MY Doctor (with Tennent coming a close second). I've missed more of the new Who than I would like because I have to share the TV.
I salute Dan for his commitment.
Pertwee and Baker ftw..
Gotta love some Doctor Who with long complex stories (Genesis of the Daleks is 02:10 long when edited into one movie)
The characters have a chance to sit down and talk science now and again, instead of constant sprinting..
And sonic screwdrivers unscrew things, rather than hack alien computers :)
And the diction.. Ahh the good diction, I miss it so..
It's amazing to think that there's so many sci-fi shows now, that these kids haven't watched all of classic Who!?!
There used to be Original Trek, Who and Blake's 7 and that's it... and you'd seen them all a bjillion times!!
I have seen Every classic Doctor Who Episode I like it better then modern Doctor Who
Classic Who is not meant for binge watching. It is much easier to digest and a much more enjoyable experience overall if you watch it an episode or two at a time rather than trying to watch an entire season (or even an entire serial) at a time.
I don't know ANY Doctor Who fan by your definition... Congrats Dan on this honest trailer! I've watched at least an episode (or series) of every doctor but man some are hard to watch and I still have lots of 'work' to do...
Spencer’s reactions 😂
Thanks for taking one for the team Dan. It was a good trailer
I liked the trailer, and I liked this conversation. Thank you for broadening my cultural understanding.
I'm actually shocked Dan has never seen modern Doctor Who. I mean if you like genre and sci fi stuff its must see at this point as its one of its best offerings.
Twin Peaks. Do Twin Peaks guys.
I would have appreciated a mention of Shada especially since it's been a year since the release of a finished version, through the use of some rather amazing animation.
Congratulations Dan and all the other SJU guys and gals for finally completing this epic project!
3 is my favorite classic who doctor too! YAY!
Few years ago, I got into Doctor who, modern who first which i loved pretty much right away. The type of person i am, i had to watch all of classic who too.. and I mean right after watching the first 6 series of modern who at the time. So i track everything down, fan reconstructions and all... and watched all of classic who over a year. I think i got through it cause i was determined and so into Doctor Who (its my favorite show of all time) but Its definitely a chore at times. I've been able to enjoy all of the doctors to varying degrees so i think that helps.
I've also listened to plenty of big finish audio plays which has enhanced some love for Classic doctors.
did you guys pull down the classic trailer? i was half way threw it any it's gone now.
Robert Russell There was an issue with the first upload - it’s reuploaded and live now! - Dan
links are still broken
it's all fixed!
I still can't find it.
I just watched it (UK) whereabouts are you?
Yes Dan, you picked the right doctor!
Well donee. Even as a Whovian of both eras, I would never recommend binge watching classic. You did an excellent riff.
The 8 doctor is Paul McGann right ?
Yes. Not a great TV movie, but amazing in the Big Finish audio plays.
Yeah, Eric Roberts was The Master. McGann's radio tales are fantastic and the webisode for 50th did more with his characterization of The Doctor than the entire attempt to launch Who in the US.
McGann is a bit like Thomas Jane in the 2004 Punisher movie. One could maybe tell that he was good in the role, but the movie was bad. Once given the right material (In Jane's case, "Dirty Laundry" and in McGann's case, Big Finish), he really got the opportunity to shine.
I grew up with Doctor Who and have seen it all, so I'm a "Doctor Who fan". When I moved to the US I brought all my VHS tapes (taped off the telly) with me and showed them to my new American husband. It took about 18 months to get through them all - and that didn't even include the reconstructions, since I only had stories that fully existed as video. We had just finished when they announced the new series in 2005.
Please do Torchwood
Great Job! I grew up in the eighties and would watch classic Who reruns on PBS along with Black Adder, and Are You Being Served. This was a hilarious take on the classics and serious applause for Dan's heavy undertaking. Cheers mate and thanks.
Heh. The notification for this popped up while I was in the middle of reading a review of Sunday’s episode.
I am a classic Who fan (I refuse to use the term Whovian,) and yeah, the classic episodes are slow. Yet, it's a chance to see low-budget at it's finest. It's one reason I love Red Dwarf. It's worth seeing some of the well-loved stories, especially The Key To TIme, which is essentially Season 16 with Tom Baker and Mary Tamm both playing Time Lords.
Oh, for 'Talons of Weng Chiang', it should be noted that it's not really going in for realism there. What the writer was actually doing was aiming at the 'penny dreadful' novels of the time like the character of Fu Man Chu and other 'oriental horrors' in the novels around that time. Not to mention the Victorian attitudes.
Seeing every classic Dr who means you are the original Whovians.
Well done chaps. All we need now is an Honest Trailer of Blake's 7, and Sapphire and Steel. Thankfully, each series isn't very long.
Thanks guys! Kudos to Dan for sticking it out through the older Who.
Respect the Danger mouse t-shirt!
Thank you Dan! Great job. Loved both Honest Trailers.
We thank you for your service, Dan!
I'm in my 20s and started with the modern and gone back and watched a good amount of the original and have to say I prefer the original it does drag but doesn't have the soap opera aspect (or as much) and I hated the season long storylines from the modern which was one of the reasons I gave u p on the modern Who awhile ago.
I honestly just could NOT get into Classic Dr. Who. I tried.... I tried really really hard but I just didn't. But I love the Modern Series. One of my all time favorite shows!
What did you try? An Unearthly Child? If so, I would skip the first two Doctors and start with Spearhead from Space. From then on, it's entirely in colour and there are no missing episodes. Or you could try watching some of the greats, like Genesis of the Daleks or City of Death.
It's a lot. A LOT. I have gotten through the second, third and some of the fourth Docto, and I tapped out.
James Archer Collins it’s different for everyone. I started watching classic after 10 seasons of modern and I love it. Though it can drag, when it hits it hits and I love it and I’m only halfway through the 1st Doctor
Fair enough. I can't really get into quite a bit of new series Doctor Who either.
@@karkatvantas9557 Don't skip first two doctors. Just skip the episodes that are missing.
I loved the classic trailer guys, as a massive who fan myself even I haven't seen most of classic who, I've really only seen the main stories of each doctor. And i recognised the Hartnell story with the Aztecs!
Classic Who is to Modern Who as a novel is to a movie. (Or all 7 Harry Potter novels to all 8 Harry Potter movies.) It's meant to move slower and rely on the viewer's imagination. Back in the 60's, 70's and 80's, kids would gather round the telly at 5pm on Saturday (tea time) for a 30 minute fix on their interdimensional adventurers. Then they'd spend the week acting out their versions of the scenes. The reason the Daleks became such a massive hit is because kids could pick up a twig, speak in a robotic voice, and become the pretend villain of the playground. The Daleks themselves were physically modeled after a salt shaker but had the characterization of the brutal Nazi regime. Remember Terry Nation first came up with the idea just one generation after WWII. Nazis were regarded as inhuman villains so hellbent on racial purity they murdered millions and conquered Europe in lightning raids inside their metal tanks and metal aeroplanes. They showed no softer emotions of love, pity, friendship or even shame. Their hatred for all those of impure race was supposedly grounded in their desire to survive and thrive.So it was compelling to turn them into a children's caricature boogeyman. From a cultural historical standpoint they are fascinating to study. Remember they were first conjured onscreen when the kids of WWII were having kids. How better to explain your childhood boogeymen then with this futuristic alien villain.
I love doctor Who, and classic Who, but I could not imagine watching it all at once. I've been catching up here and there for years and still have a way to go. Thank you, and I hope you do give the show a more leisurely look in the future, especially the modern stuff. You might enjoy it more when it's not an assignment.
Also, all of the classic Who that exists is streaming on Britbox. It has been for a year and a half or so. It certainly helps a lot for anyone who wants to try it out. The service has a lot of other good stuff too, and I'm hoping they'll still get some more of the sitcoms I want to rewatch. :)
I did enjoy this very much! You did a great job, Dan!
Love the Danger Mouse T Shirt
I totally missed that! 😮 Thanks for pointing it out.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for doing this. I only started watching who with the tv movie and then worked backwards into the classic series once the 2005 show started. So this was a real trip down memory lane. I'd love to know Dan's personal highlights and low lights and if he watched "an adventure in time and space" the tv movie about making the first doctor who episodes.
from 10 to 17 I collected and watched as much classic doctor who as possible and absolutely loved it. I still love a lot of it is some of the most imaginative TV of all time. Hay you missed out on the 7th doctor as I think "with the exception of the cheetah people episode he had some of the best stories of the 80's era. I would recommend re visiting him
I feel like there are episodes most classic fans universally agree on. Plus, I also feel like the 4th Doctor loves as the fav of classic, too.
Good job, Dan. I started watching Classic Doctor Who before you did and I’m still only half way. 👏🏼
I started out with the PBS showings of the 4th Doctor and he will always be MY Doctor. Seeing him in Day of the Doctor was amazing. Honestly I can watch any of the Doctors NuWho or Classic and enjoy it.
I love Dan’s dedication and nuance. And I love Dan and Spenser together-cameos on each other’s channels please?
I admired you now guys, well done!
I've seen all but a dozen Doctor Who episodes, including the teleplays.
You did it, Dan!! We're so proud of you!!!
Who much more of this can I take?
a lot!
There are a couple of stories aired in 1975 and 1976. The Ark in Space is about a space station being infested by an insect-like species that reproduces by planting their eggs in hosts (in this case humans), and are led by a queen. Seeds of Doom is about an alien seed pod that when it opens turns a person into a killer plant, and needs to be nuked to defeat. Then we get a famous film in 1979...Also, Day of the Daleks in 1972. The plot revolves around rebels from a Dalek controlled future coming back in time to prevent that Dalek controlled future, being followed back by servants of the Daleks (and a twist being a self fulfilling prophecy on the part of one of the time travellers).
Thank you for doing this Dan!
Taking one for the team, I salute you Dan.
Inspector Spacetime hahahahaha! Loved it. Impressive work!
