He/Him. Bringing Classic Doctor Who to first time viewers
Had a fun day with Doctor Who: The Romans

Nero was funny. A total baby who has wandering hands. Who is so convinced that he is the most talented man ever, that anyone being good at ANYTHING is insulting to him

I almost thought I was watching another world 'leader'🗽

Watching Doctor Who from 1963-1989 this year

But also Class' 10th Anniversary @patricknessbooks.bsky.social

Can I do both? I fancy including the audios too

Before we had 'The Volume' , actors standing infront of a giant TV screen to pose as a backdrop

IT'S the SAME THING

I love this plot. It seems a simple sci fi story about being shrunk to the size of an ant

BUT in reality, it's a story about killing insects, by putting you in the place of an insect

This IS political Doctor Who in the 60's, disguised as a fun kids show

How to deal with a capitalist with no value for human life? Smash him on the head with a spade

The direction is near identical too

First time viewers of The Aztecs (1964) might notice the footage that was later repurposed as the First Doctor leaving Gallifrey in Name of the Doctor (2013)

Watched Marco Polo, the 4th Classic story and first missing story - using Loose Cannon's colourised telesnaps

For a fun drinking game, take a shot everytime someone says 'caravan'

I love Classic stories like The Rescue or Edge of Destruction, which are 2-part 25 minute stories

They're essentially the blueprint for the modern 45 minute

The Rescue has one of THE best twists in Doctor Who history, and Edge is literally 60's Midnight

Currently watching Season 1 of Classic Who

Loving it. Highlights are Edge of Destruction and Keys of Marinus. But I love it all. What a great start. Can see why it lasted so long
