I'd love to see the monster from Peladon in CGI and a better Alpha Centuri Ambassador - Didn't Patrick Troughton's son play the king, they could go back and have him play the same role but now older.

for the life of me i'm trying to remember - was it a dragon type monster that was there? and if I remember rightly it was indiscriminately killing the civilisation on Peladon

^
Smile The Peladon "monster" was Aggedor (not to be confused with the Black Lace push pineapple grind coffee variety)- a bloke in a kind of shaggy bear costume with a horn on its head a bit like a rhino or a unicorn if I remember rightly : although it was a bit misunderstood and not really villainous I seem to remember but being controlled by the bad guys to do their dirty work.
I think Pertwee hypnotised and "tamed" it.
Ice Warriors were also in those stories.
David Troughton did play the king in the first one, and then the second one was set after his death with his daughter as the Queen, who was being held to ransom by some upstart lefty proletarian miners in badger-wigs protesting against the Space Federation that were a thinly disguised satire on the UK 1970s coal-mining strikes and 3 day week and the whole voting to leave the EEC referendum etc.
If they updated it now I guess they'd have to have some monstrous version of Nigel Farrage (wouldn't be too difficult ?) and a chinless weakling called Camaron or similar, possibly in-fighting with his conniving second in command Boris?

Smile Drama channel (Freeview 20 Sky 158 Virgin 190) has been showing Classic series stories at 16:00 each Sunday - all the episodes for a particular story in a roughly 2 hour slot (for 4 parters, including the commercial breaks).
I think tomorrow's is Tom Baker "Pryamids of Mars".

Horror channel is also showing Classic series in episodic form Mondays-Fridays, 2 episodes a day shown in late morning/early afternoon with the same repeated again in early evening usually from around 18:00 -20:00 and with "catch up omnibuses" of stories at weekends :
this afternoon it's Tom Baker again in "Robots of Death" from 16:40 - 18:30.

Last week during the week they were showing Davison stories - Kinda and Frontios.

Not sure what's on next week, but there may be a schedule on the Horror channel's website.

Horror Channel TV Guide,

RE: Dr Who - Rammyrascal - 24-11-2014 14:18

Karen Gillan's first ever appearance in Dr Who, before she was Amelia Pond is on watch today at 4pm and repeated at midnight


RE: Dr Who - M-L-L - 10-12-2014 22:08

Horror channel seem to have gone back to the beginning again - been showing Hartnell "An Unearthly Child" and then the first Dalek story, and tonight just started "The Mind Robber" - Patrick Troughton.


RE: Dr Who - M-L-L - 17-12-2014 20:35

Last two episodes of Troughton/Ice Warriors "epic" The Seeds of Death on Horror tonight.
Classic outtake-left-in at the start of the last episode where Troughton's trying to get in through a door to escape the "deadly fungus" which looks suspiciously like foam/bubblebath, and he slips and falls in a big tidal wave of foam and the actress playing Zoe can be clearly seen breaking character and laughing instead of looking petrified. laugh She's got a pretty smile but unfortunately not wearing one of her glittery catsuits in that story though. Wink

So there will be a new story starting tomorrow. They don't seem to have rights to show many Troughton stories from what I've seen previously, so I'm guessing they'll be going into the Pertwee era.

Probably wanted to skip ones judged too boring (The Dominators, The Krotons) or too long (The War Games).
