(Series 2,
Episodes 30-35)
Summary: Doctor
Who on LSD. A bunch of vengeful
Daleks chase the Doctor and his friends through time and space, where they
encounter the crew of the Mary Celeste, a haunted house of horror clichés and a
wildly imbecilic American tourist. Ian
dad-dances to the Beatles and destroys yet another of Barbara’s cardigans, the
Doctor gains a suspiciously dissimilar lookalike and we meet Steven Taylor, an
astronaut from the future, who has been sent so crazy by his years of isolation
that he rushes back into a burning building to save a toy panda. Most importantly, Barbara and Ian finally
find a way back home - to 1965, but what’s two years between friends?
Watch it because: “I shall miss them. Yes, I shall miss
them. Silly old fusspots.”
