BANGER

The team knew they had one shot to make a good regeneration story and ensure Doctor Who wouldn't fade away with William Hartnell's departure and by god did they smash it. Troughton plays a fantastic Doctor, sillier than Hartnell's but still serious when he needs to be, and Ben and Polly's reactions to this are great. The side characters are all great, with Lesterson and Janley being stand-out performances.

Also, they made a good Dalek story?? We haven't really had a strong Dalek story for a while but this was good. I understand why so many people like it, and join the ranks of those who wish one day it will be recovered
