C030 The Power of The Daleks

Shazam! The Second Doctor (Patrick Troughton) has arrived, and he squares off against a familiar foe in his debut serial. Guess who. (Hint: It's in the title.) Doc, Polly and Ben materialise on the planet Vulcan (not the one you're thinking of)... (1) shortly after an ancient, crashed alien spaceship was discovered on the planet (2) moments before an examiner from Earth is shot dead Before Doc's Eyes (3) while a rebel force on the planet is planning a coup against the Vulcan governor. ... so, basically, their timing is pretty bad. Anyway, Doc's mistaken for the examiner and - in a way that harkens back somewhat to the murder and subsequent impersonation of the troubadour in C012 The Romans - Doc and his companions play along. They soon find what's lurking inside the crashed spaceship, however, and must fight to stay alive while Daleks, rebels and gubernatorial politics descend upon them. #DoctorWho #DrWho #Daleks #ClassicWho * * * Check out WHOBACKWHEN.COM for more information, Doctor Who TV Serial and Audiobook reviews, ratings and ramblings, and loads more podcast episodes.
