Troughton Becomes the Second Doctor: History of Doctor Who Part 3

February 7, 2017

google.com, pub-ca-pub-6067120031842370, DIRECT, f08c47fec0942fa0 Troughton: The Second Doctor The idea of a Second Doctor is really an innovation by Lloyd and story editor Gerry Davis. If I am the showrunner at this point, I am trying to find a way to keep the program going. The show is only three seasons old and the original actor is not able to carry on. William Hartnell’s battle with his health is very evident to Lloyd and Davis. So, they must figure out…

The Ice Warriors; A Menace Which Only the Doctor Would Face

Enemies

No Comments

The Ice Warriors Doctor Who is probably the only sci-fi show where you will see an enemy like the Ice Warriors. This enemy from my reading is from the planet Mars. The Doctor finds them when he lands on Earth during a new Ice Age in the 1967 episode The Ice Warriors. This is one of the episodes in which the BBC destroys parts of the complete story. Two of the episodes are missing, but the good thing is that the story…

Past Doctors Speculation began when Peter Capaldi tells the world he is leaving Doctor Who after this year’s Christmas Special. Now even past doctors are getting in on the act. David Tennant and Paul McGann have made their choice for the next Doctor. I realize that twenty or thirty years ago what David Tennant suggest is not a possibility. But in this day I can see it taking place. All we have to do is look at what Steven Moffat…

Next Doctor The BBC wants a new era and that is exactly what they will get. Peter Capaldi steps down after the 2017 Christmas Special and now we wonder who the next Doctor will be? This is job for the media and fans both. Apparently the media is already putting odds on who will be the next Doctor. As a result, it seems to becoming something to bet on. I personally don’t know and neither do they. But they want…

Death The death of the main character in Doctor Who is something which I can never get use to. Because it seems every time I get use to a Doctor, he choses to leave. I never really find out what he is all about. Therefore, I wish the actors would stay longer. I don’t want to speculate as to why these guys leave. They are all great actors and I love to watch them. Many if not all but one…

War Doctor I am truly sad. The actor who plays the War Doctor has died. For me this is sudden. I really don’t keep up to much with actors of Doctor Who. I only see these things when the show up on Facebook or the web. The memories I have of John Hurt are as the dragon on Merlin. He plays that role very well. I always love to hear him as he speaks to Merlin. The great thing is…

Atlantis Atlantis is a place which everyone hears about as they are growing up. I know I watch TV and read books and it is something which is talked about. There are television shows and movies which tell us about this lost city. Now, the US film making industry is not the only place we see the Lost City of Atlantis. The UK has there own television network and own shows. Therefore it just as easy for them as it…

Whoopi Goldberg I am looking at my Facebook news feed this morning. I follow Radio Times, who write stories on Doctor Who. This story stands out to me, because I do not believe what I see. Whoopi Goldberg is dying to do Doctor Who.(1) As a result, I want to let people know what I think. Now, I am a sci-fi junky somewhat and Star Trek no matter which one intrigues me. I remember watching the original Star Trek with Captain…

Midnight Midnight for me is not the perfect place to take a vacation. In this episode, we see Donna only for a brief time. The Doctor and she travel to something like a spa. While Donna stays to relax and get the spa treatment, the Doctor gets on a ship to travel to a place called Midnight. The lead in on this episode is good. The Doctor allows Donna to relax and meet some new people while he travels to…

Forest of the Dead The Forest of the Dead is the climax and ending for the two part story involving The SIlence in the Library. During the first part we find that 4022 people are saved by the computer. Who the computer is not revealed until this episode and it makes the Doctor rather angry. They begin this episode where they end the last one. The Doctor and five others are running from the Vashta Nerada. The still hasn’t figured…
