Doctor Who - The Five Doctors [1983]
Yes, The Five Doctors is the one that gathers together Hartnell, Troughton, Pertwee, Baker and Davison, dumps them on some moorland and lets some of the Doctor’s greatest enemies take potshots at them. Except, of course, that William Hartnell had sadly passed on by the time this series was made in 1983 (although his replacement Richard Hurndall does an excellent job) and Tom Baker was only featured as a patched-in cameo, apparently prevented from joining in by a temporal thingummy. However, this kind of creakiness comes with the territory and is soon forgotten. The assorted incarnations of the Doctor (together with a scattering of assistants) are drawn together through time and space to battle Daleks, Cybermen, Yeti–those weird androids which keep jumping into the air and disappearing–and many other old foes. They realise that they’re on their home planet of Gallifrey and must eventually deal with the legacy of Rassilon, founder of the Time Lords. It’s all great fun, of course, and the excellent chapter points on this DVD compensate for the rather self-indulgent lack of editing. –Roger Thomas
Customer Review: Fun x 5!
The Five Doctors was originally broadcast on the 25/11/1983. It was the 20th anniversary special of the series and was what usually would be
4 25 min episodes in 1 90 min movie lenght episode.
It see’s a powerful timelord (not tellin who!) gather the 5 incarnations of the Doctor (Peter Davison, Jon Pertwee, Patrick Troughton,
Richard Hurndall, Tom Baker and William Hartnell) and a variety of companions that include Tegan (Janet Fielding), Turlough (Mark Strickson), Sarak Jane Smith (Elisabeth Sladen),
Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart (Nicholas Courtney) and
Susan (Carole Ann Ford) in the Death-Zone, a sort of Gallifreyan
theme-park were either the innocent or the guilty are put to the test of survival.
The 5 Doctors all try to reach the tomb of Rassilon (a great timelord god!) to try and find the answer to the mystery.
Of course it won’t be easy, along the way there are Cybermen, a Dalek and a Yeti and that sort of feeling you get when you feel your being watched!
An absolutely great Doctor Who story and a must have for Doctor Who fans!
Customer Review: A HELL OF A LOT OF FUN!
“The five doctors”, it`s not the most amazing doctor who story ever, but it`s alot of fun. Let me start with the bad points:
1. The absence of Tom Baker (however at least they got unseen footage of him in it)
2. The dalek only appears for about two minutes.
3. Susan twisting her ankle is totaly unnecessary
That done and dusted, bring on the good points:
1. Richard Hurdnall does a good job portraying the first doctor.
2. The awsome battle between the Cybermen and the raston warrior robot.
3. Peter Davison, Patrick Troughton and Jon Pertwee on screen together. (such a shame Tom Baker isn`t there though.)
4. The whole yeti scene. I won`t spoil it for those who haven`t seen it.
There are no extras but “the five doctors” remains a great buy. Bon Apetite!
