Sue: Oh no.
Me: Go on, then. Say your catchphrase.
Sue: No. I’ve decided to say “Terry ****ing Nation” from now on instead.
Trust me, it’s completely different.
A soldier is walking through a wood. His right arm is twitching erratically.
Sue: Either he’s late for breakdancing practice or ...

Me: We’ve made it to Doctor Who‘s 13th season.
Sue: 13, eh? Unlucky for some.
Me: We’ll see.
Thankfully, Terror of the Zygons gets off to a cracking start…
Sue: That’s a nice edit to kick things off. I’m not entirely sure what I was looking at there, but it’s a confident start.
An oil rig crumbles into the sea…
Sue: I still don’t know what I’m looking at, but that was probably a very nice explosion. I’m sure it was a ...

Sue: Ooh, scary face. Tom Baker looks very serious, doesn’t he? But this is a much better title sequence. You don’t need to see the Doctor’s legs.
And then…
Sue: They still haven’t fixed the credits! That’s just lazy. They slapped the new titles over the old ones and hoped for the best. Will they ...

Me: Right, this is it.
Sue: This is what?
Me: This is the last Jon Pertwee story. Six more episodes and it’s all over.
Sue: Really? Why are you telling me this now? Are you winding me up again?
Me: I was going to keep it a surprise, but I believe this story works better if you know that it’s the Third Doctor’s swan song. It would have been common knowledge to the average viewer at the time, too. ...

Me: Right, we have two choices tonight. We can watch a recently recolourised version of the first episode – which looks a bit ropey around the edges – or we can watch a black white copy instead. It’s up to you.
Sue: Wow, I’m spoilt for choice. What do you recommend?
Me: I’d go with the black and white version if I were you. I think it ...

Sue: Oh, I like this one already. It’s filmed on location and it’s got a Land Rover in it.
The Green Death begins at a colliery in South Wales, and there’s trouble down pit.
Sue: This is very topical, isn’t it? I feel like we’ve stumbled into a Ken Loach drama by mistake.

As promised (or was it threatened?), here’s a video commentary featuring the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Doctors. We plan to record an edited video commentary per Doctor and I will be setting up a poll, where you can vote on which 4th Doctor story we tackle/ruin, in the very near future.
As a very special treat (or not) we are joined Sue’s brother, Gary and (for Episode Four) by her daughter, Nicol.
Normal service ...

Sue: A Time Monster, eh? I bet the Master is in this story. He’s a monster and he knows about time.
As luck would have it, the Doctor is having a vivid nightmare about his arch-nemesis.
Sue: She shoots, she scores!
The Doctor is woken by Jo, but the dream continues to disturb him.
Sue: Did Jo drop some acid in the Doctor’s tea? There’s a lot ...

Me: I’m sorry, but I need you to close your eyes during this title sequence.
Sue: Why?
Me: Because the title of the story is a massive spoiler.
Sue: Wait, don’t tell me – is it The Return of the Master?
Me: No.
Sue: Is it The Return of ...
