[on the mix of darkness and humour in
Doctor Who (1963)] I think it's my favourite kind of storytelling as far as
Doctor Who (1963) is concerned. It's certainly what makes
Doctor Who (1963) richer and more watchable than some of its
historical rivals.
Terror of the Autons: Episode One (1971) has
killer gonks and a brilliantly nasty visual gag about a dead body
inside a lunchbox.
UFO (1970) has people in collarless shirts
and suits standing glumly in white rooms. I know which I'd rather watch
with my kids.
