Blimey! They inslled a computer navigation system on the HMS Troutbridge.

Clearly their superiors wants to have fun. because with that particular crew would be safer to chew plutonium.

Nestlé’s Doctor Who milk chocolate bars. Back in 1971 I used to buy one from the little post office on Ashley Lane as I walked home from primary school (the phone box outside the post office was our pretend TARDIS). The choccie wasn’t as nice as Cadbury’s, but it was Doctor Who, so…

And @DekaBlack there’s a new edit of a classic adventure on BBC4, showing ahead of the new spinoff!

A paced-up version of 1972’s The Sea Devils (what else?) starts at 7pm. With updated SFX maybe?! No need to mess with that iconic music / soundscape though!

I think I’m slightly more excited about seeing #JonPertwee and #RogerDelgado in action again than I am about the #TheWarBetweenTheLandAndTheSea 😆

Thank goodness, #DoctorWho season 8 on Eden. Itʼs 'Terror of the Autons'. Havenʼt seen this in decades. #JonPertwee #TV #UandEden

“Rubbish. Why should I waste my time having useless injections against an imaginary epidemic?”

Even 70s Doctor Who had to deal with anti-vaxers.

The real enemy was idiotic bureaucrats the entire time.

The Silurians episode 3. The scene with the Doctor popping into Dr Quinn’s cabin is fantastic. On the one hand, this episode is kinda filler, but Pertwee makes him running around and talking to people a joy to watch.

Fulton Mackay is definitely the best guest star this story.

Unfortunately they don’t give Liz much to do this episode except check in on the security fellow in sickbay.

Thanks to everyone who participated in my Doctor Who poll. It ended in a dead heat, which means I clearly must watch both the Silurians and the Dæmons. Both are excellent, so no regrets there.

( @Printdevil is always right.)
