It is a shame season 26 of Dr Who ended classic Dr Who, but it sadly happened the way it did. I also think that this series, was starting to get Dr Who back on its feet and back on track
this guide has been a life saver ive been curious about classic who for years and watched random stories with no real order and couldnt get much into it but thanks to your great descriptions and reviewing ive been able to find episodes i love and your suggestion of new viewers to start with ace and 7 is great im fully hooked and loved their stories as well as the second doctor adventures you have recommended
I think just the sheer amount of missing puzzle pieces made me throw over Ghost Light in favour of Battlefield. Plus by now you really had an idea this this Doctor actually could stop a battle by raising his voice... sure, the Knights see him as Merlin, but damn do you buy that this Doctor is someone to never, ever piss off (unlike when Matt Smith tried it and needed a busload of friends for backup... like you said, McCoy would have had the Time War licked in an afternoon of Lexx-level loss of of planets, star systems and life). Oh, and Lethbridge-Stewart pulling a Macready on The Destroyer "I just do the best I can." Beautiful. You can tell it's probably my favorite, can't you? Plus Ace demonstrating she's turning into a woman in much more obvious ways in Curse of Fenric and having gateway furry lesbian tendencies... Who was breaking mad barriers in the McCoy era. It really was a high note to go out on - and I'm old enough to have grown up with the show from Tom Baker's day (just about). He really was more than just a simple Time Lord, bless him.
I'm kinda bugged by how Ainley's Master started the tradition/bad habit of the Master being blatantly killed off only to return with no good explanation for it. He's still a Great Master mind you, I just wish they hadn't tried to kill him off so often, or at least hadn't made his apparent ends seem so final & inescapable, since now we can't even take the notion of the Master dying seriously, you KNOW he's always gonna come back (for better or worse depending on who's playing him, the New Who Masters haven't been all that great unfortunately). I prefer how Delgado's Master always slipped away before the Doctor could catch him, barring that one instance when they actually DID catch him, only for him to not only orchestrate his escape, but also enact a plan for global domination involving turtle people! That right there is going beyond the call of duty to the forces of magnificent bastardry >;3 Great reviews Diamanda, really informative and fun! Out of curiosity, who are your favorite Doctor Who vampires? I tend to favor the Great Vampires & their lineage/offshoots because of their awesome history with the Time Lords (wish the modern show would bring them back), but the Haemovores are really visually interesting (and way better than the CGI fish vamps from Vampires in Venice to me lol).
Wasn't the Cheetah girl Ace formed a friendship with played by Lisa Bowerman? (Who went on to play one of the Seventh Doctor's other companions, Professor Bernice "Benny" Summerfield. I know she played one of the Cheetah people, I just don't know which one)
A fantastic final season, and I'm one of those who is glad that the series ended here. There's always the danger of lingering too long, outstaying one's welcome, seeing once fresh ideas turn stale. It's best to go out on top. The idea of breaking up the McCoy-Aldred duo in Season 27 just seems blasphemous, like splitting up Batman & Robin or Kirk & Spock. They had such great chemistry together and the Doctor-Ace relationship had real purpose, a real narrative drive and focus. Breaking that up just to introduce yet another round of interchangeable sidekicks would just wreck everything. See Also: Deep Purple Mk 3/4, Van Halen Mk 3, Audioslave. My father was a big fan of Battlefield, mostly because he liked UNIT and the Brigadier but also because of the King Arthur setting, as well as the idea that Dr. Who was Merlin the Wizard. The monster looked terrific, the outdoor settings are great, there's a lot of great scenery and characters. And McCoy looks terrific with his new darker coat and overcoat. He's fully embraced his manipulative William Hartnell side. The Curse of Fenric is another all-time classic, widely regarded as the best of the McCoy era. Be sure to see the extended DVD edition instead of the original broadcast serial, which adds several minutes and enhancements. This is a great instance of fusing multiple genres: World War 2, vampires, ancient Celtic deities and the chessmaster Doctor at his best. Aldred's Ace really gets to shine and grow and it's remarkable that it took this show a quarter century to realize that sidekicks could actually have character development. See, they can do more than ask Mr. Wizard stupid questions and scream at cheesy monsters! Ghost Light works wonderfully for me because its density of plot and character, the very things that keep many viewers away. The plot is slightly obtuse and convoluted, but I enjoy it. I definitely love the stagebound setting, and we are reminded that the BBC can do a fantastic job with period dramas. I do wish there were more such episodes of this show instead of so many alien invasions and bases under siege. Again, we have the ongoing story threads of Ace's personal traumas and a father figure (Dr. Who) is simultaneously aims to help and manipulate her. He shows an abusive, controlling streak that could threaten to one day destroy their relationship. Which, to be honest, is probably how their relationship should have eventually ended. No going away to college. Survival was one that I didn't get to see until the Eccleston Doctor Who was on the air, thanks to the Minneaplis PBS station being so inconsistent with playing old episodes. Once I was finally able to watch, I loved the hell out of it. Its tone is lighter than Fenric and Ghost Light and that's a very welcome thing. Rona Munro's script brings a very strong feminist perspective to this serial that is refreshing, welcome and very long overdue. There are a lot of subtexts that remind me of the classic film Cat People, and I wouldn't at all be surprised if it was an inspiration. I wish Munro and others like her had been writing Dr. Who episodes from the beginning. Also, kudos for finally allowing Anthony Ainley a chance to play The Master the way he wanted, just as McCoy had done for Dr. Who. See how easy it is? Just turn down the camp and stop shouting to the rafters! Stop treating this program like it's The Banana Splits! Amazing how nobody could figure this out. The only reason the McCoy era was allowed to flourish is because the show was left for dead, and a new creative team was allowed to go into new directions. Again, the tone of Doctor Who moved from '80s glam and camp to '80s punk and alternative. It didn't always work perfectly, but they very largely succeeded in modernizing the program. That's one of the greatest secrets of Doctor Who: despite all the talk of constant change and evolution, the brutal truth is that this remained a 1960s monster serial for over two decades. By 1987, it was woefully out of date. McCoy, Aldred and Cartmel dragged this series kicking and screaming into the modern era and effectively set the stage for its comeback under Russel T. Davies and Steven Moffat. There's no way you get to New Who with Colin Baker, Peter Davison or even Tom Baker. They're too far back in the past, stuck in their own Sixties cultural time warp and Seventies nostalgia trip. No, if you want to make Doctor Who relevant in the new century, there's only one pathway, and it's through Sylvester McCoy. End of rant. Can I have a grant now?
I had just finished classic who. I’ll say this it’s a fun ride. Though I do wonder what happened to Ace. Also the writer of Survival came back and wrote the Easter’s of light in series 10.
When I first saw Battlefield I just took one look at Jean Marsh and just screamed "HOLY CRAP ITS PRINCESS MOMBI!"...Just asking, was I the only one who did that?
@@DiamandaHagan ditto. S10 was pretty great on the whole! Eaters of Light, for me, turned out to be less spectacular, but she should have done more for the show and New Adventure novels.
I do say that in Battlefield the last onscreen appearance of Brigadier Alistair Lethbridge-Stewart , in the original script of Battlefield the Brigadier was to be killed off by the Destroyer but they chickened out of killing off a popular and iconic character that had been in the show for 21 years and they felt fandom would go ballistic if Lethbridge-Stewart was killed off .
Personally I'd find it interesting to see him playing the Hatter or a (seemingly) more Silver Age take on the Penguin. Show a seemingly goofy little man with a strange theme. Then you discover that the surface level silliness is so you don't notice what he has going on in the background until it's almost too late. I mean if 7 lacked the conscience the Doctor generally has, he could have manipulated him way into ruling a pretty sizable chunk of the universe.
DiamandaHagan as much as would have loved to have seen lungbarrow on tv, but I'm glad that we didn't because it explains to much and raps the show up giving the BBC more reason not to bring it back. It basically answers "Doctor Who"?
I'm just now at the end of my BritBox journeys through Classic Doctor Who. Done with Battlefield. It was nostalgic to see Jean Marsh AND the actress who played the female Lister in an episode of Red Dwarf. Again, almost done...unless you count the lost episodes on audio, just reaching the lost Troughton stories.
Check out Big Finish's other stuff too. Mostly well written! And McGanns stuff is structed like an ongoing show (while much of the other Doctors stuff is made to be dipped into).
In my cannon, I decided that the Doctor dropped Ace off back on Earth, but in the wrong year and place almost by mistake and she teams up with Jack Harkness and Gwen Cooper as part of a revamped Torchwood team.
Here are my thoughts on the last four episodes of the classic season Battlefield/okay Ghost light/personal favourite The curse of fenric/legend Survival/the very last great classic doctor who story
Good. The TARDIS set looked terrible for years. I was glad that the show got rid of those interior scenes. What they should have done is revert to the TARDIS set from the Hartnell era, which looked great in that classic mad scientist sense.
I always think the McCoy era novelisations are even better than the actual episodes. Stripped of the cheap-looking video photography/special effects/costumes and the cheap-sounding synth scores and also the occasionally lousy performances and augmented by additional scenes in classic Target fashion (before Terrance Dicks took over almost the entire range and knocked them out over a weekend), they really shone. Marc Platt”s Battlefield was excellent.
adam Balcer He may have just told her what she would have understood,but who knows. The Canon of Looms is up for debate, but Hagan is correct in stating it is more interesting, it is more appropriate for an alien race than what we know as procreation
Sorry, the 7th Doctor was my only look in Classic Who, and i don'T "get it" i really don'T get it, and god nows i try. This is i guess my last Look for Classic Who, but thx for the Guide, way enjoyable that the 3 Seasons itself
I'm wondering if the Loom process was inspired by the Czech play Robota, which introduced the robot/concept and the title characters were made using Looms as well?
DiamandaHagan It just pales in comparison to the original run. It is still good(occasionally) but I'm mad Capaldi is leaving just when things seem to be improving. And the whole wanting to appeal to a younger demographic statement just makes a certain part of my body itch, lol!
I am commenting on so many of your videos today but I love them so sue me, yeah I am one of those people who are not a big fan of Looms. Mainly because, and this might just be me, it kinda felt like Marc Platt was equating sterility with Asexuality and it just kinda made me uncomfortable, also while the concept might be interesting, the name is just kinda...stupid. I mean I get what it means, the reweaving of DNA but...yeah, it's just not a concept I am particularly fond off.
Mind u classic who did social politics, the happiness patrol and Sunmakers However they did it right, not slap u across the head with it. Doctor who is sci fantasy fun which is what they should get back too.
Battlefield - Great
Ghost Light - Amazing
The Curse of Fenric - Magnificent
Survival - Magnificent

Fantastic, exactly what I hoped would happen when I made the series. :)

A favourite? Rightly so. I can only agree with anyone saying S26 is arguably one of (if not THE) best seasons of Who, fullstop.
If Doctor Who never came back after this season, at least we got a damn good final season. But I am glad it did return eventually XD
I'm kinda bugged by how Ainley's Master started the tradition/bad habit of the Master being blatantly killed off only to return with no good explanation for it. He's still a Great Master mind you, I just wish they hadn't tried to kill him off so often, or at least hadn't made his apparent ends seem so final & inescapable, since now we can't even take the notion of the Master dying seriously, you KNOW he's always gonna come back (for better or worse depending on who's playing him, the New Who Masters haven't been all that great unfortunately).

Great reviews Diamanda, really informative and fun! Out of curiosity, who are your favorite Doctor Who vampires?

+warriorking4ever I like the Great Vampires and Haeovores :)
As much as I love Survival and watched the DVD time and time again, I could never unsee the black cat as Salem from Sabrina the Teenage Witch
Wasn't the Cheetah girl Ace formed a friendship with played by Lisa Bowerman? (Who went on to play one of the Seventh Doctor's other companions, Professor Bernice "Benny" Summerfield. I know she played one of the Cheetah people, I just don't know which one)
How did people dislike this these are awesome

Thank you for making this you actually helped me so much❤️❤️

Rona woulf later do a NuWho episode. Is it as good? What's the viewer expecting from it?
When I first saw Battlefield I just took one look at Jean Marsh and just screamed "HOLY CRAP ITS PRINCESS MOMBI!"...Just asking, was I the only one who did that?
Rona Munro wrote a story for NuWho series 10. She wrote the tenth episode called "The Eaters Of Light"
Looking forward to seeing it, s10 is currently on track to be the best since 1989!
I'd say it's the best of the new series just after series 5
@@DiamandaHagan ditto. S10 was pretty great on the whole!
Eaters of Light, for me, turned out to be less spectacular, but she should have done more for the show and New Adventure novels.

Sums up morden who
Didn't Barbara Clegg write Enlightenment?
+Ken Shinn She did.
and Jane of Pip and Jane Baker
After seeing him in "The History Boys", I'd say Richard Griffiths would have been a fascinating Doctor.
So if the RTD era was similar to Survival and the Moffat era was similar to Fenric does that mean the Chibnall era is gonna be like Ghost Light?
We can but hope!
Not a fan based on what we got from chibnall. Way to preachy on social politics.
This season makes me want Sylvester McCoy to one day play a Batman villain. He could be a great Joker or Ridler
Personally I'd find it interesting to see him playing the Hatter or a (seemingly) more Silver Age take on the Penguin. Show a seemingly goofy little man with a strange theme.

Ms. Hagans, wonderful news. Rona Munroe is set to do a script for the new era, Season 10, I believe. Have you heard? :)
Yup, 1st bit of def good news from s10.
DiamandaHagan as much as would have loved to have seen lungbarrow on tv, but I'm glad that we didn't because it explains to much and raps the show up giving the BBC more reason not to bring it back. It basically answers "Doctor Who"?
DiamandaHagan what about the 7th doctor white coat that changed into Brown coat.
Personally I like the Brown coat

Also Dimond 1989 was the year I was born when 7th doctor was

My favorite season
Rewatching after the Season 26 Collection trailer
Connor Wood same
And 2 years later, Rona Munroe came back for another episode.
for very low ratings.....
Here are my thoughts on the last four episodes of the classic season
Battlefield/okay
Ghost light/personal favourite
The curse of fenric/legend
Survival/the very last great classic doctor who story
The Tardis set was broken, the walls where lost after greatest show.
Good. The TARDIS set looked terrible for years. I was glad that the show got rid of those interior scenes. What they should have done is revert to the TARDIS set from the Hartnell era, which looked great in that classic mad scientist sense.

Marc Platt”s Battlefield was excellent.
Andrew cartmel should've been the showrunner
If the show didn't end ... would it of just ended up as it is now, just a lot sooner?
Maybe have you seen the ideas for season 27
Some of them are very like new who ideas
+Cooro “Snow” Fox I think the show woulda eventually evolved into something akin to New Who.
+DiamandaHagan Who never stood a chance on Fox, who have never been kind to science fiction
What did 7 do in the books
@louis butters what timeline did he delete from existence
@louis butters what, why, that's out of character
except the doctor had a wife and daughter who both died. reference second doctor tomb of the cybermen.
adam Balcer He may have just told her what she would have understood,but who knows. The Canon of Looms is up for debate, but Hagan is correct in stating it is more interesting, it is more appropriate for an alien race than what we know as procreation
@adam Balcer, that star wars homage was loony and not all loomy.

But the show DID come back, in 2005. Its not as if the newer version isn't Doctor Who.
+Aleander Did I say that 2005- Who isnt Who?
The way you phrase it in the video leaves the impression that NuWho isn't really the return of Doctor Who, but rather a different, seperate entity.
+Aleander Sorry, thats not what I intended to say. New Who is just as much Who as Old Who.
I'm wondering if the Loom process was inspired by the Czech play Robota, which introduced the robot/concept and the title characters were made using Looms as well?

Shame classic who was canceled. We did get a new golden age in 05 with the Russel era.
Best Story:The Curse of Fenric
Worst story:Survival(Least i like)
Must See:The Curse of Fenric/Survival
To be honest I love the younger incarnations of the Doctor.
Is that Dr.Culex from tomorrow people in those old 90s tv shows?

I'm enjoying reading your comments.
Producers and script writers being fans is the reason the new show is the way it is. They keep trying to add fanfiction into the cannon.
this series is hugely overrated
Fenric is the only good story in it, Survival is okay and the first two--oh my giddy aunt!
Mind u classic who did social politics, the happiness patrol and Sunmakers
However they did it right, not slap u across the head with it. Doctor who is sci fantasy fun which is what they should get back too.
