17 years ago tonight. The Parting of the Ways, Eccles' final story. He's gone mad by the way.

The first regeneration in the new show. They go orange now.

53 years ago today. The final black & white episode, canning my favourite Doctor about 20 years before I'm born. It's part 10 of The War Games.

No regeneration. Nobody hired. The show is cancelled. Pat just spins away into black.

Tough to describe the final few scenes. If the show had never come back it would be one of the most haunting endings to any TV show.

56 years ago today. Part 1 of The War Machines. The final days of Hartnell.

London 1966 and up we go the new Post Office Tower, construction of which had been completed two years earlier.

But he is the Doctor, Randy. All the others are just interpreting.

57 years ago tonight. The final episode of 'The Chase'. You'd never believe me.

But if you have ever wanted to see Count Dracula picking up a Dalek, this is the show for you.

Or watch the Doctor have a walking stick fight with a robot of himself.

A fairly standard 6 eps. Original companions Ian and Barbara leave at the end, aww.

But there was another Hartnell + Daleks story called 'The Daleks' Masterplan' which lasted for 12 episodes. Or three months. Mostly missing from the archive.

I think so. The middle episode landed on Christmas Day 1965. The Doctor turns to the camera and wishes everyone at home a happy Christmas. I assume it was in the script.

Hurndall was in a Steptoe & Son. I think he played an antiques dealer. He had the hots for Harold... you can probably imagine roughly how that unfolded in a 60s sitcom.

The episode is called 'Any Old Iron?' Iron being short for iron hoof, being rhyming slang for poof.
