Doctor Who: Toby Hadoke’s Time Travels

SPOILERS HEREIN

Be warned, this is a brand new commentary which takes in and describes the moving pictures featured in this recovered episode. So do not listen until you've watched the thing. Three people who saw these at the secret launch - host Toby and guests Oliver Crocker and Tim Burrows - recall the day that Peter Purves was lured to Leicester. And they try to choose the best thing about Devil's Planet. Which is harder than you might think. A Hell of a choice you might say.

SPOILERS!

Be warned, this is a viewing of the actual episode, so if you haven't yet seen it and don't want to be spoiled, wait until you have had a chance to enjoy all the treasures within The Nightmare Begins. Taking advantage of the immense privilege of being able to see this recovered gem early, your host, and two other lucky colleagues (Tim Burrows from The Missing Episodes podcast and writer Oliver Crocker) pick over their favorite things about this wondrous slice of Doctor Who that's been in a cupboard for a while. Surely the first in depth look at the episode as seen, if you need to digest this joyous discovery, this might just be the best way!

And so things hot up on the planet (not in terms of the weather, it's still grey and gloomy) that I can't be bothered to try to spell right now. Perhaps I need some sort of Adjudicator - although the one here might have another agenda... but we all know that even 50 year old spoilers can mess things up for some so just have a listen and see where we go.

It's wet and overcast and there are muddy boots aplenty : sounds like a typical English holiday. Your host had a disaster recording this one, so this is attempt number two. If at first you don't succeed then try, try and try again ... a saying which has a repetitiveness strangely apposite for this story. Still - your host and guest Simon Curtis are having much more fun here than fan opinion would suggest...

This is a repackaged repeat: an old episode of Happy Times and Places with a new intro and outro to reflect the discovery of this episode ...an episode which was lost when this edition was recorded. Hopefully this re-release will whet your appetite for the imminent release of Devils' Planet for the first time since 1965. 

The Daleks continue with their planning whilst the Doctor and co master the controls of the Spar spaceship - only to be propelled towards a penal planet. There's lots of theorising about the pictures we couldn't see when this episode was lost - and soon we'll be able to see if your host, Toby Hadoke, was right, and if the memories of original viewer Ian McLachlan match what actually happened. Sadly, Ian will not be able to join in when Devil's Planet when it hits inlayer on easter weekend, as he sadly passed away shortly after recoding this episode.

Fare forward Ian x
