Doctor Who: Watchers in the Fourth Dimension
TV & Film:TV Reviews
This episode, we go on a tour of the galaxy’s finest jail cells, featuring appearances from the Master! Ogrons! A few Daleks! Draconians! And future humanity’s most dictatorial regime to date! It’s a rather grim vision of the future in Frontier in Space! Join us as we keep track of the number of times that the Doctor and Jo are incarcerated, and generally despair at how so many people *on both sides* repeatedly ignore what they’re trying to say.
Over the course of the episode, Don advances his theories about the Third Doctor’s anecdotes being most nonsense, Anthony denies the possibility that General Williams could be his future descendant, Julie praises Jo’s choice of (sensible) outfit, and Reilly dreams of seeing the Ogron version of The Office! The entire crew find themselves enamoured with the world building presented in the story.
