Happy New Year! We kick off 2016 with three Doctor Who adventures that see an exotic mini-break go badly awry. A trip to Butlins-in-space sees the Fourth Doctor endure some mind-mangling entertainment in The Leisure Hive; the Ninth Doctor’s plans to visit Naples take a turn for the worse when he ends up dealing with a gas leak in Cardiff in The Unquiet Dead; and the First Doctor enjoys sex, drugs and Tlotoxl, Mexican-style, in The Aztecs. Along the way John gets to grips with the idea of Fixed Points In Time (TM), Matt makes a case for the Foamasi costumes as high art, and Jim explains how Redditch Carnival inflated his hopes for The Leisure Hive episode 4.
