My classic series reviews reach Doctor Who: The Savages, not an easy story to review as all that exists are a few v short clips, the telesnaps and the soundtrack but I have a go.

This week my classic series mini reviews reach Doctor Who: The Celestial Toymaker, not an easy story to review as most of it is missing and the plot is quite visual, certainly writing wise it’s Dr Who as a children’s show which isn’t always the case with these 60s stories.

This week my mini reviews of the classic series reach Doctor Who: The Ark, an episode that seems to get a rather negative response from some fans but i rather enjoy it.

Also this week the BBC released a clip from a previously lost Desert Island Discs interview with William Hartnell which you can hear in full here http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p009y3yj
