VHS : Doctor Who - The Awakening/Frontios [1963]

Doctor Who - The Awakening/Frontios [1963]


starring: William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker, Peter Davison
March 03, 1997


A well written and well produced story, this boasts one of Peter Davison's finest ever portrayals of the Doctor. here is is strong, domineering, quirky, eccentric, funny and manipulative in turns, commanding the screen and dealing with human authorities and nasty, scheming alien creatures with equal amounts of authority. Anyone who thinks davsion is not one of the best Doctors needs look no further than this story to see the emergence of a giant, ready to become an unsurpassed legend just two stories later as he visits a set of titular Caves! Watch it and savour it, it is one of the finest! The dialog alone is a treat to ears! Watch it!

VHS : Dr Who-Ambassadors of Death [1970]

Dr Who-Ambassadors of Death [1970]


starring: Jon Pertwee
directed by: Michael Ferguson
May 20, 2002


jon pertwee was great as the doctor. and this is a good story to watch to see just how good he is.

well, the 7 episode stories might be overlong for some, but this story keeps pace and interest through every episode.

the plot is very complex, with all the aliens being substituted for humans and stuff. when i first saw this story i was a bit confused by what was going on, but now im older and this story is brilliant. one of the best jon pertwee stories and one of the best full stop.

oh and i like it that caroline john gets to do some decent stuff for a change. and she sure is a great runner!!

actually not too many special effects on this story, but this aint a bad thing at all. in fact, it ... Read More:

VHS : Doctor Who - The Daemons [1971]

Doctor Who - The Daemons [1971]


starring: Jon Pertwee
directed by: Christopher Barry
February 13, 1995


This is the best Jon Pertwee Doctor Who series you can can buy. Some of the special effects look dated now, but the brooding atmosphere and demonic creatures left an indelible mark on me as a 10 year old. Another reason for its excellence was one of the earliest appearances of the Master, who was marvellously played by Roger Delgado.

Sadly this still isn't available on DVD. However when it is eventually released it will hopefully include a documentary that was made in the early 1990's when the cast revisted the location the series was filmed at.
If you can get the video at a decent price its definetly worth getting, but I'm waiting for the DVD which will undoubtably be remastered and include the usual quota of commentaries and extras. ... Read More:

VHS : Doctor Who The Green Death [1963]

Doctor Who The Green Death [1963]


starring: William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker, Peter Davison
October 07, 1996


CLASSIC Who, nice Jon Pertwee story with a Welsh mining community and countryside crawling with giant maggots that make you wither and die if they touch you. Has a bit with a nice, funny disguise for Pertwee. This story is the departure of companion Jo Grant, who falls in love!
And the Doctor whizzes around in his car "Bessie" again.
Worthwile!

Doctor Who - Terror Of The Autons - 30th Anniversary - 1963-93 - Full Reconstructed Colour Version [1971]


starring: Jon Pertwee
directed by: Barry Letts



Having recently read Doctor Who Magazine's 'Fact of Fiction' feature on this story, I was compelled to revisit it. Dusting down my copy I poured a glass of wine and settled down to see if time had been kinder to this than it has to many Doctor Who serials from Jon Pertwee's tenure. Happily I discovered that it had - the introduction of The Master provided what was to become the greatest fictional rivalry since Sherlock Holmes and Moriarty; Jo Grant's comedic turn as the Doctor's ditzy new assistant was an instant success and the return of the sinister and malevolent Autons provided the icing on the cake. Particular highlights must include the evil doll waking and attacking the factory boss, The Master's killer chair, the Autons in carnival heads distributing the ... Read More:

VHS : Doctor Who The Edge of Destruction and The Pilot Episode [1963]

Doctor Who The Edge of Destruction and The Pilot Episode [1963]


starring: William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker, Peter Davison
May 02, 2000


The pilot episode is interesting if little else, but inside the spaceship / the edge of destruction (whichever title you prefer) gives us the first real chance to see the original TARDIS crew as characters in their own right, instead of just Dalek-chasers. Yes the Daleks made Dr. Who a household name, but does anyone really believe the series would have lasted so long without stories of this calibre? True sci-fi, real characters and not a BEM to be seen.

VHS : Doctor Who: The Master Tin Set - Colony In Space / Time Monster

Doctor Who: The Master Tin Set - Colony In Space / Time Monster


starring: Jon Pertwee, Katy Manning, Roger Delgado
directed by: Michael E. Briant, Paul Bernard
November 05, 2001


Personally I think these two stories are long overdue for DVD release. Whilst the earlier reviewer's comments about the quality of the stories are mostly true, I think that they're missing the point - as with much late sixties and early seventies 'Who' there IS a lot of padding, however, there is also a decent amount of dialogue, and interplay between the characters that is generally missing in today's high-speed, action-oriented Doctor Who.
The (mostly) Earthbound Doctor and his UNIT colleagues have formed a tight-knit group by this stage in the series, and there is some particularly amusing badinage between The Doctor and The Brigadier and the latter and Sergeant Benton in `The Time Monster'. In one memorable scene The Brig sneers at The Doctor's yellow Edwardian ... Read More:

Doctor Who - Planet Of The Spiders [1974]


starring: Jon Pertwee
April 02, 1991


Every time I watch this one, it starts off superb but then by episode four it starts to collapse. Patrly because the Metebelis Three people are so stupid and can't act. There are mostly good speical effects all along, and the regeneration is fairly standard, but female spiders?

VHS : Doctor Who The Face of Evil [1963]

Doctor Who The Face of Evil [1963]


starring: William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker, Peter Davison
May 04, 1999


1: Tom Baker is excellent as the deranged Xoanon

2: Louise makes a brilliant entrance as Leela

3: The horda are cute.

4: The tesh are gits, but likeable ones, with their arm flapping!

5: Tom is great as ever as the Doc too.

6: The tribe have more developed characters than usual.

7: Great comic moments, especially how Leela runs into the TARDIS despite the Doc not really wanting to take her.

8: We for once get a sizeable chunk of story to see whats happened after the enemy has been thwarted, which is a nice change.

9: the staue looks impressive.

10: Good actual 25 min eps for a change!

Need I go on?

VHS : Doctor Who - The Mind of Evil [1963]

Doctor Who - The Mind of Evil [1963]


starring: Jon Pertwee, Barry Letts, Katy Manning, Timothy Combe
May 05, 1998


It's a shame the previous reviewer wasn't actually paying much attention when watching this story. The Keller machine yes; Krendler machine..? Afraid I've never heard of it!
This is another highlight from the Barry Letts/John Pertwee era of Doctor Who. Having previously only read the Target novelisation I wasn't quite sure what to expect but was pleasantly surprised. The insidious Master has, using an alter-ego, created a machine that supposedly 'cures' violent criminals and makes them fit for re-integration into society. The Brigadier despatches The Doctor and Jo Grant to witness the first demonstration of the machine in action and they see a hard-core thug become a seemingly sweet and gentle man.
Of course, The Doctor is rightly suspicious, and when people who have ... Read More:
