Decapitation! Dismemberment! Vomiting! Doctor Who's 20th anniversary story THE FIVE DOCTORS, transmitted during Children in Need in 1983, featured all these elements and more in the 'Cybermen vs Raston Robot' scene. ROUND 1, FIGHT!

RIP the legendary Tom Stoppard. Among his more famous achievements, he radically rewrote Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade (under the pen-name Barry Watson), adding most of the thrilling beats and hilarious gags.
One of my favourites: the cut to Brody, after being hyped up as a master of spycraft, lost and blithering in a Turkish market.

From Edmonds through Dragons' Den, possibly the greatest 'What was on TV that day?' the lads have ever given us.👌

Looking forward to this. If only the extras included the @WheezingPod scores or recordings though. Eg. It should flash up an image of Captain Sir Tom holding up a placard that says '280/300 Chairs on Heads' when you load up Seeds of Doom. When will you learn BBC...

I don’t understand the criticism aimed at the modern Doctor Who regeneration effects. Personally, I think they’re so effective they should be retroactively added to all classic stories as the standard.
