Bully Wee Villa Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 (edited) Tbf, for a time travel show, Dr Who has very rarely bothered with alternative realities. I can only really think of the brilliant (if you don't think about it too much) "Inferno". I'd be up for more. Especially if it involves the Meddling Monk somehow, I've been hoping he (or she) would come back since they revived the programme. Would probably have to change the name if he changed gender.

scottsdad Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 At the request of my son, we watched the first episode of Doctor Who tonight. I mean, the 1963 pilot. Plot: two teachers take an unnatural and unhealthy interest in a 15 year old girl and follow her home. Lots of hiding out in a junk yard before they randomly attack an old man who shows up . Then the man (the girl's grandfather) kidnaps them. Interesting in its own way. The Doctor does not show up until about 15 minutes in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsdad Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 We finished An Unearthly Child. Overall it was pretty poor. Most episodes were about cavemen arguing. "I make fire. I am leader" "No, I make fire. I am leader". Then we watched The Dead Planet, first of a 7 part introduction to the Daleks. Night and day. Really well written, tense, funny, and very, very slowly building suspense. Our trip to the 60s is playing out well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottsdad Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Finished The Daleks 7 parter. It was great. Better than many recent episodes. The star is Chesterton. He is 'The Man Who Takes Charge' . Susan is the cheeky wee scamp. Barbara's job is to scream hysterically and cry at any old thing, allowing Chesterton to comfort her. The Doctor is very much a doddery old man. Always knackered, barely able to run, he really takes a back seat. Again, in total contrast to the new shows. But with the daleks, I am looking forward to finding out what happens to the thals. They haven't been in the new shows. This story is about how they share Skaro. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Autistisches Nilpferd Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Just watched the magnificent An Adventure in Space and Time again. Forgot how bloody brilliant it is. Well worth if you have never seen it or haven't for a while 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
