A One-Sentence Review of Every Doctor Who Story Ever: The Second Doctor Era
Radio Free Skaro #1021 – Don’t Mention Dr. Who
http://traffic.libsyn.com/freyburg/rfs1021.mp3
It’s a real grab bag of news this week with Peter Davison critiquing the current series of Doctor Who, Peter Capaldi being cool as hell at Glastonbury, and a truly mammoth editorial by Chris about the Blu-ray for The War Games in Colour and the cost thereof given that it is only one disc. Somehow we get an hour out of this, and we also have an extensive interview with long-time friends and Televisual Specialists John Williams and Neil Perryman about their new podcast where they watch every television show ever made – World of Telly!

Doctor Who War Games In Colour Limited Edition Blu-ray steelbook Unboxing
https://youtu.be/IEROK9Qhsb0
Originally aired in 1969, The War Games marked the end of an era for the Second Doctor (Patrick Troughton), following him and his companions Zoe and Jamie as they land in a battlefield that appears to be a World War I military zone-but all is not as it seems. They soon discover that soldiers from different historical periods have been abducted and are being manipulated in a cruel game. As they work to uncover the mystery behind the War Lord and his twisted experiments, the Doctor faces one of his most difficult challenges.

We here at Radio Free Skaro Towers pride ourselves on our ability to shoehorn Canadian content into our discussion of a British institution, but prepare yourself for a megaton-level of maple syrup as we welcome fellow Canuck Graeme Burk with a look back at the 20th anniversary of modern Doctor Who and all the surrounding hoopla, broadcast machinery and piracy that surrounded it! Buckle up – it’s the trip of a lifetime!

I watched #TheWarGames - in black and white!
I think it's wonderful; how the story morphs and grows as the serial progresses, how it ends its era dropping so many threads that would be picked up in #DoctorWho future by keeping things vague enough to be developed, rather than be dead ends.
Remarkably for a 10-parter it in no way drags, even the run about eps have a [sort of] point and develops that widening story.
The ending ep kills me and I love and despair at Jamie and Zoe's ending. Especially Zoe's; she grew a lot in her time and it's all gone and she knows, some part of her at the end KNOWS she's forgotten something and I hate it and love it. #DoctorWhoRewatch
