Spearhead from Space - The most over rated story of all time. To me its just an average post regen story. I donβt get why everyone thinks its one of the best of all time
Silurians - Love this one could do with sone trimming but great.
Ambassadors- Decent but too long.
Inferno - Good but extremely over rated. The drilling and primord parts are meh but the volcano and paralell world aspect is great. Shame we never had an exit for Liz.
My opinion is take 2 episodes of ambassadors and 1 from Silurians/Inferno and add another 4 parter and Give Liz said exit
@lakecountynaturalist7617
Inferno moves slowly in order to build tension. I wouldnβt cut a second of it. In my opinion itβs the best episode of any Doctor in any era.
@DTM-Books
Spearhead From Space demonstrates how good this series could have looked if it was always shot on film.

Pertwee and Baker are by miles my favorite Doctors. The 70's was almost a magical time for me growing up as a kid watching this era of Who and 1970 stands out as one of the shows finest seasons!
@AnthonyP73
I've never found Inferno too long, it always grips me from start to finish.
@AbrasiousProductions
The music is so eerie
@John-tj9to
Yeh I duno what he meant by one ep too long I thought it was executed perfectly well.
@swilliams937
That episode scared the heck out of me as a kid!
@Wrennsley
Saldy, I do not agree I think inferno is 1 episode to long, the only stories which I think aren't to long are Genesis of the daleks and The talons of weng chei ang
@richardbuckley1232
Agreed - itβs fabulous.

Tom Baker & Jon Pertwee are my favorite doctors by a wide margin. Loved the episodes when the doctor worked with UNIT. The Brigadier & Jo were some of my favs as well. You do a wonderful & absolutely hysterical review of the seasons. Really brings back my youth of watching on PBS with my father & idiot brother. I thank you wholeheartedly for that.
