Review of Spearhead from Space by Wacik_der

29 October 2024

In my full honest opinion, a very good start to Pertwee’s era, and a good introduction for both Liz and the Autons. It is still a bit dodgy in some places, but overall the plot plays out, and it’s a nice slow four parter to ease you into classic who. I’d recommend it as the ideal starting point for fans who don’t want to sit through the black and white era. That is why I give it four stars.

Wacik’s random facts - this intro was the first coloured Doctor Who intro (besides the movies), and featured a newer version of Delia Derbyshire’s 1966 redo of the 1963 theme. These changes in the newer version were the doooweeeeoooo came earlier, and had the new “siren” at the end. The title text would appear in white Futura Bold. This was also the first intro to have a dedicated logo, as the previous two had basic text, such as Times New Roman (Troughton’s 1966 - 1969).
