For more Liz, at least storywise: I'd reccomend the audiobook "The Scales of Injustice" which gives her departure from the Doctor, and Big Finish's "Sentinels of the New Dawn" which is an adventure with her and the Third Doctor post-series 7, and "The Blue Tooth" which is the 3rd Doctors 1 and only encounter with the Cybermen. Going forward, the Fifth Doctor will have two ladies in the Tardis together; Tegan who you recently met, and Nyssa who you'll get to know later🙂We love you too Jess. x

Look up some more about Jon Pertwee's life. The guy was basically James Bond.

Another amazing review Jess! Let me tell you, back about 30 years ago, The Daemons was most of the cast &amp; crew’s choice of favourite story they did. At that time no other story could come close to it. In more recent years, due to some problems some people have with how they actually defeat Azal at the end, it’s probably now in 2nd. Inferno’s taken it’s place for a lot of the reasons you said about the other reality, the Dr literally fighting to get out of there and how much more consistent the storytelling appears throughout. Btw the main director of Inferno was a guy called Douglas Camfied who is considered the best director of the Classic series, if not one of the best right up to today, I’ll list his other stories below, some you seem to have become attached to only recently; Planet of Giants (part 3 only) The Crusade The Daleks’ Master Plan (yes all of it!) The Web of Fear The Invasion Inferno Terror of the Zygons The Seeds of Doom Another point is it’s really Camfield we have to thank for John Levene as Benton. John Levene was not an actor and was only playing small background characters. Camfield saw him and promoted him to be one of the soldiers in The Invasion and gave him some lines. Then when they did Inferno Camfield wanted to bring John Levene in once again and really made him one of the main supporting characters in that story. The rest as they say was history. Anyway back to this, when you post this properly in about 2 weeks I’m going to re-tweet this at Katy Manning, I’m positive she’d love to see it. We need to start a campaign for you and her to meet in person somewhere, somewhen. You would have a blast, I promise, she is one of the most kind and generous and effervescent people you will ever meet. Wishing you, your family &amp; Rocko a wonderful Christmas &amp; New Year xxx

I highly recommend (after Sarah Jane's era is done) Elisabeth Sladen's autobiography. Her impressions and opinions of Jon Pertwee in particular are very interesting. It's pretty inexpensive as an ebook, but paperback and hardback copies are rare an pretty pricy.

2023-04-05 05:08:57 Many thanks for a great review to a wonderful Classic Who era. On trying to go back on what you've said - personally I didn't disagree with practically a single thing you said. Where I might have a slightly different opinion is the dynamic between the Doctor and The Brigadier. Although I generally agree that he did throw shade the the Brig for much of his era, I'd put it down to reasons. First, the fact he was stranded on Earth made his character a little bitter and often when one is in not so good a place, it's not uncommon to take it out on those closest. Second I think the Doctor has a general disdain for all things millitary. He despises guns &amp; the solution often being to blow things up. Lastly I think the fact that the Brigadier had the Silurian base destroyed left a bitter taste in The Doctors mouth. As the Brig pointed out in a blink and you'll miss it moment much later down the line, he's still a soldier and has to follow orders. That was during the Green Death &amp; I really feel that is where the two of them sorted out their differences and bacame true friends. Having said all of that, I took a lot of the shade the Doctor threw at the Brig to be banter/subtle humour, but yes, it did get a little exhausting on occasion. With The Master showing up and you feeling silly for not guessing it, that was Frontier in Space. To recap with Liz, she left because she was pregnant and also because the producer wanted a companion the Doctor could teach &amp; Jo very much is a favourite part of 3's era for me. Liz did have more of an outing in the direct to home media P.R.O.B.E series (of which I've seen one story) - although I'm not sure I agree with her being depicted as a pipe smoking professer! Maybe something you'll get to check out further down the line. Lastly, yes, The Deamons is very much a fan favourite &amp; also one of John Pertwee's personal favourites. Very lastly, I love Benton and have never heard a bad word said about the character. See you next time!

I have the paperback to this, it's a very interesting and engaging read. Didn't realize it was rare/pricey (I can't recall what I paid for it) but then I got it the moment it came out.

I don't think it was rare or pricy when it first came out, but it was a few months ago when I was looking for it - paperback copies were on amazon for like 99 bucks. But I just looked again now, and apparently you can get it in hardback for 29.99, so they must have found more to sell, or something changed their mind on pricing.

Often these things can shoot up and down in price, I found that with some old Playstation games.

Thank you very much for this! A hugely enjoyable watch. Thank you as always for taking so much time and trouble to do these things for us. As far as The Daemons goes, I think it has always been a very popular story - particularly with fans of the Third Doctor's era. It's also often been cited by several of those who worked on it as their favourite, most notably Jon Pertwee himself.
