The Executioners
18 August 2020
The TARDIS lands on the planet Aridius, where Ian and Vicki go exploring. The Doctor and Barbara discover the Daleks are pursuing them in their own time machine, but are separated from the TARDIS in a sand storm.

The Chase is not one of my favorite Doctor Who stories, and I never really look forward to watching it. "The Executioners" starts things off decently enough, but not much actually happens. The first half of the episode is made up of the regulars messing about with the time-space visualizer, while the second half has William Russell and Maureen O'Brien wandering about the desert. It's all directed by Richard Martin in his usual bumbling manner.

There is one great moment where the Doctor claims his singing can "charm the nightingales out of the trees"!
