Doctor Who retrospective The Doctors Revisited will screen on Saturdays and Sundays between 12 October and 16 November on UKTV channel Watch, with each episode followed by a classic Doctor Who adventure starring the Doctor in question.
The acclaimed documentary series provides an introduction to each incarnation of the Time Lord, complete with cast interviews, clips, a montage of the Doctor’s key moments, iconic lines and the monsters he has fought. Contributors include current showrunner Steven Moffat, Tenth Doctor David Tennant, former executive producer Caroline Skinner and Doctor Who writer Neil Gaiman.
Kicking off with a look back at William Hartnell’s First Doctor, the opening programme will be followed by four-part 1964 adventure The Aztecs, set in 15th century Mexico.
Patrick Troughton’s Second Doctor will face one of the Time Lord’s deadliest foes in Tomb of the Cybermen, first shown in 1967, while Third Doctor Jon Pertwee will appear in Spearhead in Space, the first adventure featuring the Nestene consciousness and animated mannequins the Autons.

Why on earth are they putting it on Watch? That isn't a Freeview channel so many people will miss out, seeing how they have 4 main channels can't understand why the BBC aren't showing this on one of those. This will anger a lot of fans.
ReplyDeleteI'm still waiting for a trailer of the 50th anniversary...
ReplyDeleteyeah what is up with that? Its less than 2 months away now
ReplyDeleteIt would be very unusual to have a trailer this far away from transmission, they are usually shown, at most, 2 weeks beforehand.
