  None. Hamster with a blunt.

  Penknife for doing quicker, quicker.
• 0:40
  Quicker Hello ladies and gentlemen on the Internet, and
• 0:42
  welcome to Hamster with a Blunt Penknife, the Doctor Who
• 0:45
  commenting podcast. This is my first run at the War
• 0:51
  Machines and we're up to episode 3.
• 0:54
  I'm here with the the usual host of this podcast, Mr. Jill Ford.
• 0:58
  Hello there. Yes, I'm delighted to be here
• 1:00
  today with two very handsome Scottish men.
• 1:05
  When? When are they coming up?
• 1:06
  When are they? When are they coming?
• 1:08
  When we're finished, will you hurry up?
• 1:10
  All right. And my erstwhile colleague from
• 1:15
  the Polish Box, Lee, is also with us here.
• 1:19
  Good evening. Do you know, I've actually got a
• 1:21
  question for you, Cam, if you don't mind, before we go into
• 1:24
  Episode 3. Let's Go Episode 3.
• 1:26
  Ma, This is good. This is good.
• 1:27
  I'm enjoying this. My my question for you is this
• 1:30
  is since you have never seen this before and I would like to
• 1:34
  know that you have been paying attention to what's been on the
• 1:36
  screen in front of you. If you could just detail the
• 1:39
  plot of the war machines to date for the listeners you know that
• 1:44
  may not have heard episode one and two, off you go.
• 1:47
  To date, the Doctor and Dodo have landed in 1960s London.
• 1:54
  There is a artificial intelligence programme been
• 1:57
  developed in a supercomputer called Woltan.
• 2:00
  It seems to have taken something of a turn for the worst and
• 2:03
  started to develop massive war machines, as the title suggests,
• 2:07
  capable of killing everything and taking over the world.
• 2:10
  Production of them starts in London and then goes to
• 2:13
  Washington and Moscow. That story sounds amazing.
• 2:17
  Why are we watching this shit? Hey, you know, sorry.
• 2:22
  Oh yeah, I was forgetting this is something.
• 2:24
  Favorite favorite Doctor Who episodes?
• 2:25
  Come on. Well, let Lee it's your
• 2:27
  favorite. Do us the honour and count us
• 2:29
  into Episode 3. OK, war machines part three and
• 2:33
  three, two and one and go. I have to say, you know, you
• 2:40
  boys are very easy company. I don't mean that in a rude way.
• 2:46
  You've been completely in the toilet, always have you?
• 2:49
  No, no, I was just means I can tell you do this sort of thing
• 2:52
  you know professionally not well it's not.
• 2:55
  Professionally. Well, Professionally.
• 2:57
  Are you paid for this? They go beeping.
• 3:04
  That's right. War Machine in action.
• 3:06
  OK, Lee. Yes.
• 3:09
  Are war Machines cut price? Daleks do.
• 3:11
  You know what? I don't.
• 3:12
  I don't think they are because that's not what they're aiming
• 3:14
  for. And of course there's blindingly
• 3:16
  overly similarities between the two.
• 3:18
  But if they were trying to, I think we're beyond the point now
• 3:22
  in the 60s where they're trying to find the new Daleks all the
• 3:25
  time, then maybe that's maybe a bit of an argument.
• 3:26
  They try to do that with the quarks later on and Patrick
• 3:29
  Trouton's run. But yes, there's similarities,
• 3:31
  but they're supposed to be tanks, aren't they?
• 3:34
  They't. Not really supposed to be
• 3:37
  anything else other than that. There's supposed to be war
• 3:39
  machines. So yeah, I don't.
• 3:42
  I don't think it's a conscious effort on a part of the
• 3:44
  production team trying to ape the Daleks.
• 3:45
  Well, question two then is do you think it's a good design?
• 3:48
  It's functional. That's what it's supposed to.
• 3:52
  It could probably do for a little bit of tidying up, but
• 3:56
  you know what? It works for what it is.
• 3:59
  They're going to have a fearsome vehicle kicking.
• 4:03
  When you when you call a Doctor Who story functional, it's not
• 4:05
  usually a complimentary term, you know.
• 4:07
  We'll go with that. Yeah, but it's it's it.
• 4:11
  It does what it says in the tin. It's editing so far.
• 4:13
  I'm enjoying this. I'll be very, I'll be very, very
• 4:17
  impressed if somebody cosplayed at a convention.
• 4:19
  Oh, you know, that's that's a challenge now.
• 4:21
  That would like to start, Yeah, I'll put that out there to the
• 4:24
  world. Well, you know, cosplaying is a
• 4:26
  war machine. You know how some women do like
• 4:30
  sexy Tardises and things like that?
• 4:32
  You know they do TARDIS dresses and things?
• 4:35
  Someone trying to do a sexy war machine?
• 4:39
  Oh no. Do you know what you could do?
• 4:40
  You could have those pipes coming off your tears, like
• 4:43
  spurting out. Fire extinguishers.
• 4:47
  OK, I'm getting desperate. Well, it's time for Polly's
• 4:51
  possessed acting here. What do you think about Holly
• 4:54
  and Ben as, like, do you think that was a savvy move, bringing
• 4:58
  in contemporary companions after everything that we've had
• 5:01
  before? Like, do they?
• 5:03
  Do they generate good stories going forward?
• 5:07
  Do you know what I think that possibly the first proper
• 5:10
  audience identification figures in docs to really?
• 5:15
  Because if you look at what we've had so far, from the
• 5:17
  beginning, we've had sort of school teachers, space orphans,
• 5:22
  handmaidens from ancient Greece or space pilots.
• 5:25
  So you know, there's not really a lot for people to recognise
• 5:28
  it. I mean, if you're a 10 year old
• 5:29
  kid watching us, Ben and Polly are probably much like your
• 5:34
  older brother and sister, because I'm meant to be sort of
• 5:36
  the way teens out of the 20s, aren't they?
• 5:39
  So they kind of like the cool older brother and sister, They
• 5:41
  sort of feel drowned leading down here.
• 5:44
  And of course the characteristics are kind of
• 5:46
  dialled up a bit because it's telly, but there's a realness to
• 5:49
  them and I think that's part of their appeal as they do feel
• 5:53
  like actual normal people. Only one thing.
• 5:56
  I objected to your summation there, and that is I find it
• 6:00
  baffling that you cannot identify with a handmade from
• 6:03
  ancient Greece. What were they thinking?
• 6:06
  I mean, how would that? Ever work been an ancient Greece
• 6:12
  and that above and made in English sometimes of me of.
• 6:15
  Course, yes. Just just so did you?
• 6:21
  Well, in a few episodes of The Dalek's Master Plan that you can
• 6:23
  see where she's just going around going, you know, we'll
• 6:26
  never reach the place of perfection.
• 6:29
  We can't do that every bloody week.
• 6:32
  Can we go? On that's budget hen.
• 6:37
  Oh look, there's time for a little drink there.
• 6:39
  Look in between all the chaos there.
• 6:42
  We go couple of shots before dealing with.
• 6:44
  They're not drinking coffee now. Cams.
• 6:47
  No, no, this isn't the Inferno Bar anymore.
• 6:50
  I. Think that was a little shot of
• 6:52
  vodka we had there, actually. Hart was brilliant here though.
• 6:54
  I think he's really good at stressing the threat that's
• 6:59
  coming. He's got a bit of gravity.
• 7:01
  About him. He's definitely given it all.
• 7:03
  He's all in this story. He's getting his defense here,
• 7:05
  isn't he? What's strange is like the show
• 7:10
  would normally, like, always rely on the Doctor's wit because
• 7:14
  honestly, we've not really had the money to do the action
• 7:17
  sequences that you're going to get towards the end of this
• 7:19
  episode. So what's very strange is there
• 7:23
  and in the climax of the story, the Doctor's sort of not around
• 7:27
  because the soldiers are taking care of most of the action, and
• 7:30
  then he just sort of steps in at the end of the episode.
• 7:33
  It's just it's it's rare for him to be so away from the action.
• 7:37
  Yeah, I mean sometimes, sometimes come up with ideas
• 7:40
  like, you know, trapping the war machine and the wrestling ring
• 7:42
  that we see later on. So he's going to involve, but
• 7:45
  not I can't let our physical action sense and that's going to
• 7:47
  dole out between Ben and Polly and the soldiers.
• 7:51
  Wait a minute. I owned wrestling.
• 7:52
  This is going to get way better. It's going to get even.
• 7:54
  Better. Oh, yeah, There's a me treat for
• 7:55
  you in half four coming up. Oh.
• 7:57
  Fantastic. I mean, there's a ring, but
• 8:00
  there ain't too much wrestling going on in there.
• 8:02
  I'll be the judge of that, OK? There's nothing.
• 8:06
  No one's getting greased up or anything, I can assure you.
• 8:09
  Work for us? Irrigation harness them for.
• 8:14
  Back to your work, crawls, So we are the Tory party.
• 8:18
  I'm going to try and give this a a reading.
• 8:22
  Is it that the machine is treating human beings as
• 8:28
  machines? Now that the tables of terms and
• 8:32
  all people will just be, you know, functional biological
• 8:35
  devices to do it's will. But why is Votin's plan?
• 8:40
  That's my Did the book shed any light on that, Lee?
• 8:43
  Not that I recall. I might be misremembering, but
• 8:45
  that doesn't seem to be sort of grand major plan in place.
• 8:49
  I mean, you have the question Will town's attention to detail
• 8:52
  enemy. Because as we've just seen,
• 8:53
  they've allowed a guy that's wandered in their warehouse and
• 8:55
  rubbled the entire plot to just wander about unhypnotised.
• 8:59
  It'll be fine. He'll not try to leave.
• 9:03
  So you know, he's a bit, quite a bit fast and loose with the kind
• 9:06
  of arrangements here. Like you'd think there would
• 9:08
  just be one sequence where he, you know, gives out his demands
• 9:12
  to the world. Yeah, it's it's a genetic
• 9:15
  overall domination, but for no discernible reasons.
• 9:18
  Like me, it's Doctor Who villains.
• 9:20
  Why do you want to take over about?
• 9:22
  I don't really think about that and.
• 9:25
  He's a logical machine, so you think he might have fallen
• 9:27
  through just just because, All right, it's just because.
• 9:33
  I'll tell you what there was Design works fantastic because
• 9:36
  those war machines have brilliant smiley faces on them.
• 9:39
  They're the most cheerful killing machines you'll ever see
• 9:40
  in A Leaf I. Don't know until you see the
• 9:43
  cleaners in Paradise Towers and they're pretty chipper as well.
• 9:46
  Plus I've got old ladies slippers coming out of the back.
• 9:50
  Oh, sorry. Just a quick moment for what
• 9:52
  Ben's wearing right now. I approve.
• 9:56
  And don't you get on your high? We've got something for everyone
• 9:58
  here. If you've got Polly, they must.
• 9:59
  Not but come with the underwater menace.
• 10:01
  Polly's got to be decked out in nothing but shells.
• 10:04
  All right. You're well catered for in the
• 10:06
  60s. They are really good together
• 10:09
  though. There's a lot of chemistry
• 10:10
  between the two of them, isn't there?
• 10:12
  It should work so well. Romantic chemistry.
• 10:16
  No, it's been generally in acting terms, but maybe there's
• 10:18
  a wee bit of that as well. I mean, there's again, I'm going
• 10:21
  to bring out the books there. There is the implication that
• 10:24
  there are feelings there. They sort of bring in other male
• 10:27
  or female characters and they end up getting jealous and.
• 10:30
  Well, according to Sarah Jane Adventures, they disappear off
• 10:32
  to India and open an orphanage together, don't they?
• 10:34
  I mean, that's the sort of things that friends might do.
• 10:38
  Yeah. Guys, do you fancy?
• 10:40
  Getting. To India or an opening an
• 10:41
  orphanage? Final right, Stop the course and
• 10:44
  let's get the plane tickets. No, but you're right.
• 10:49
  I think, I think they they do sort of sizzle on the screen,
• 10:51
  don't they? And as complimentary as you
• 10:56
  could be about some of the other actors, Jacqueline Hill, William
• 10:59
  Russell, who are fantastic, it doesn't sizzle.
• 11:04
  Yeah. Well, that's true.
• 11:07
  Maybe in the Romans when they're pissed on those tokers.
• 11:10
  Do you remember that? Bit oh, I play it again.
• 11:13
  Mr. AI just don't see it all off screen as the kids show after.
• 11:17
  But you cut away at the appropriate point, yeah.
• 11:20
  Ian suggestively hit you. Keep banging on about an attack.
• 11:23
  But who are they? Who are they attacking, exactly?
• 11:26
  Everybody. Yeah, popular.
• 11:29
  So just like. Oh, OK, it is a little bit so.
• 11:32
  The whole thing about all these hypnotized humans are unaware.
• 11:34
  It's their own destruction. Yeah, I mean, come the ends of
• 11:38
  the episode, Cam. There's all these soldiers being
• 11:41
  murdered and they're opening fire with their machine guns and
• 11:45
  the old machines are plowing people down and all of this.
• 11:48
  And we've really haven't got time to think about things like
• 11:50
  motivation or the end game or anything like that because it's
• 11:53
  all so exciting. I.
• 11:54
  Love how the doctors have actually been just confined to
• 11:56
  this office for most of. This topic.
• 12:00
  Hartland's not complaining. Good lapel grabbing that.
• 12:06
  You know, carries the vodka. Now you might feel a thing.
• 12:13
  I'll tell you what it is. I'll tell you what it is.
• 12:14
  Michael Cray's and Annika Wills, they both have a lot of energy,
• 12:18
  don't they? They bring like a a pace to it
• 12:22
  that perhaps Peter Purvis and Jackie Lane lacks a little bit.
• 12:28
  Yeah, because they always feel I don't want this.
• 12:31
  That sounds horrible to them, but there's always a certain
• 12:34
  staginess before this point. OK plays these being the first
• 12:41
  kind of proper, rounded sort of identification figures and
• 12:44
  Doctor Who actually feel agree with people as good as Peter
• 12:47
  Purvis is as Stephen, as good as Morgan and Brian as as Vicky.
• 12:51
  It's always just feeling just on the edge of stagy.
• 12:54
  Most of the time have. You seen the Celestial Toymaker
• 12:57
  episode 4? Good.
• 13:00
  He was, oh, I can't hear this, but I'm just imaginable.
• 13:03
  And he she was my friend. Pretty much got it, yeah.
• 13:09
  Annika Wills is doing her best Sort of zombie acting there
• 13:12
  right in front of the camera. Don't tell me you believe this
• 13:16
  bullshit, Doctor. Oh, come on now.
• 13:21
  The boy's suffering from some sort of delusion.
• 13:24
  He's suffering from delusions. Look at him, he says.
• 13:26
  Purely lack of salt. I don't want to sort them out.
• 13:29
  15 vodkas. Come here.
• 13:30
  Boy, we might just rain a note. My dear boy.
• 13:35
  Pissed us a lot. Like people have fucking died.
• 13:38
  The tramp stage, for God's sakes.
• 13:41
  Some of the work of an updates. Yeah, he is basically the
• 13:44
  Transit Authority figure here, isn't he?
• 13:47
  Just getting in the way. Certainly.
• 13:49
  Oh, like the subtitles of God Cockney.
• 13:51
  He's in my own head. Did it say cockney?
• 13:54
  Oh, I see. It was just written in Cockney.
• 13:56
  He just got away. He just did all those other
• 13:58
  irritations. Read it like Ed was like without
• 14:00
  the H, so it was like Ed. Yeah.
• 14:04
  It was a very cockney line. That was a very cockney line
• 14:07
  just before this, only they got exactly What more do you want?
• 14:10
  I'm so pleased, you know. You're all in the four, even
• 14:12
  noon tomorrow. The full Cockney experience,
• 14:15
  even though you're only washing this with subtitles.
• 14:18
  Yeah, I'm getting full cockney now.
• 14:20
  But so look at it. Look at Michael Cray's in this
• 14:22
  scene, fighting his way through this scene.
• 14:24
  He has really got some energy to him, yeah.
• 14:28
  I might He's not quite with the direction because it's very fast
• 14:30
  and PC as well. Especially in later scenes when
• 14:33
  we get the war machines on the rampage.
• 14:35
  There's a lot I can zip to these episodes, and a lot of it does.
• 14:40
  Come that is also what you would say about many 60 stories isn't?
• 14:43
  It that's true, Yeah. It's got a lot of zip to it.
• 14:46
  Nothing I noticed about this when I was watching it.
• 14:47
  There's no actually record the music for the serial at all.
• 14:51
  There's a couple of bits of stock music and very, very small
• 14:54
  excerpts, but there's no music at all.
• 14:56
  Like doesn't really feel like you're missing out by not having
• 14:59
  it. Did you get adds to the?
• 15:01
  Music that they play when people get hypnotized, that weird
• 15:05
  electronic music, I I couldn't figure out what that was.
• 15:08
  It's a bit of it's in it's in the info text but I didn't take
• 15:11
  it down. There's some sort of stock music
• 15:13
  from her. I don't think it's.
• 15:19
  I think it's kind of like cost anybody.
• 15:23
  Musicians that ferry to love with what we used to use for the
• 15:25
  original theme tune. It was a music called.
• 15:29
  Derbyshire. Yeah, a little short of lines
• 15:32
  kind of along with the lines of radio or phonic workshop.
• 15:35
  It's a simple sort of group I think that kind of specialized
• 15:38
  in that sort of sort of music, concrete sort of stuff.
• 15:41
  So I need to look up, but yes, that'd be better.
• 15:44
  Stop music that if we'll take you from.
• 15:47
  Did you ever get that that album they released where it was all
• 15:50
  music concrete that that Tristam Carey album?
• 15:55
  Oh man, it was awful. It's a bold, artistic move, I'll
• 15:59
  give them that. I remember Toby Hader was saying
• 16:02
  he was listening on one of his commentaries, saying he he'd
• 16:04
  listened to that as a kid and he goes, and it was just a series
• 16:07
  of bleeps and blobs. He goes, and it was just the
• 16:10
  most ugliest sound you've ever heard.
• 16:12
  And he didn't care because it was music from Doctor Who, so he
• 16:15
  was going to bloody well endure it.
• 16:17
  Oh, here we. Go look at this sound.
• 16:19
  The bottle didn't exist. The action's starting.
• 16:22
  The Army's coming in. Here's the good stuff.
• 16:25
  Here we go. You do a Cliff.
• 16:28
  A bit of sorry, Cam. No, I'm just saying this is this
• 16:31
  is good. This is escalated nicely, but.
• 16:33
  They're clever be a bit of editing when these their trucks
• 16:35
  rolling because only had one lorry that they could use.
• 16:38
  So they cut on a very specific point to make it looks like a
• 16:40
  continuous line of vehicles coming in.
• 16:42
  It's. The magic of Ferguson?
• 16:44
  Isn't it? It's.
• 16:44
  Focusing Thinking. About yeah, thinking about how
• 16:48
  to duplicate resources. It's all sort of familiar TV
• 16:53
  tricks, but just not tricks they were doing on this show really
• 16:56
  before. I just love it in a minute.
• 16:58
  I just I I couldn't believe when I was watching this earlier how
• 17:01
  many parts there were, how many inserts there were during this
• 17:06
  action sequence at the end of episode 3, Because I know that
• 17:09
  they could only do, what, 33 stops?
• 17:14
  Was it 3? Times they.
• 17:15
  Could they? Could they could do the tape?
• 17:17
  3 edits like that, so things really were coming on it.
• 17:23
  Makes it even more of a remarkable feat when you think
• 17:25
  of that, doesn't it? That how limited they were and
• 17:28
  how they managed to put it together.
• 17:29
  Something like this do? You remember the quote of
• 17:33
  William Hartnell saying that in the sort of his last five or six
• 17:39
  stories, he's quoted as saying, you know, there was a great evil
• 17:43
  coming into the show. I think he knew he was on his
• 17:46
  way out, so he was starting to just kick out a little bit.
• 17:49
  But I'm wondering if he didn't like all of this action.
• 17:52
  You know, all of this action that's going on and all of this
• 17:55
  death. I mean, that's a bit rich
• 17:57
  though, isn't it? Because there's tons of death
• 17:59
  from Dalek's master plan, including a companion being
• 18:02
  physically aged to death oi, so I think it's maybe a bit a bit
• 18:09
  better rich to say though the ugly Evil was coming into the
• 18:11
  show, because there's always all these all over the place.
• 18:14
  It was quite a puppet strove in a caveman's head in the first
• 18:16
  serial. Darling invasion of Earth opens
• 18:19
  with that Rover man committing suicide in the Thames.
• 18:22
  Yeah, none of that going on here, he.
• 18:26
  Probably read the rest of the script.
• 18:28
  Mind you, can I point out, by the way, can I point out that if
• 18:31
  this was the Polish box, the fact that there's a unit in here
• 18:34
  called Orange Patrol would lead to a Scottish football joke?
• 18:37
  But we won't go down this. Do you know a Scottish football
• 18:41
  joke for this moment? That's my team.
• 18:46
  Which is your team? Lee, Wait.
• 18:47
  Wait, we should, we should point out, we should point out for the
• 18:49
  tape that Cameron is a Rangers fan.
• 18:51
  So there's lots. Of jokes about orange orders and
• 18:53
  prices and marches and. Marches.
• 18:58
  Just explain that to the listeners.
• 19:00
  What? Did it surprise you to know?
• 19:02
  I have no idea what either of you are talking about right now.
• 19:06
  Probably for the best. Probably, yeah.
• 19:09
  But the two straight people listening are going.
• 19:11
  Yes, finally. I'm being represented on this
• 19:14
  thing. Yeah.
• 19:17
  Look at this now, Cam. Come on.
• 19:19
  Oh, wow. Plenty try OS guns jamming.
• 19:23
  I mean, you could be in ambassador to the death right
• 19:25
  now, couldn't you? Yeah, I mean this is what I
• 19:28
  mean. Lots of fast cuts.
• 19:30
  PC editing, I mean, most of Episode 3 is more or less fella
• 19:34
  really, isn't it? Until you get to this point and
• 19:37
  even there's not a lot happening.
• 19:38
  But visually, it really pops off the screen and engages you.
• 19:43
  I think you look at the stories that Ferguson directs it.
• 19:47
  He does this, he does seeds of death, he does ambassadors of
• 19:51
  death. So we must have seen there are
• 19:53
  some similarities. They're all visually
• 19:57
  interesting, pacey stories. Yeah, especially Ambassadors.
• 20:01
  It's got that beautiful shot of the spaceman coming down the
• 20:04
  road, but the sunlight sort of backlight, and I mean, it glints
• 20:06
  off the visor at one point as well.
• 20:08
  Yeah, that's great, doesn't it? Gorgeous, but he does the same
• 20:10
  thing in the Seeds of Death. Do you remember when the sight
• 20:12
  of the Ice Warrior comes down the hill and he's silhouette at
• 20:15
  the high end? Yeah, by the sun, that's
• 20:18
  gorgeous as well. Look, there's that poor soldier.
• 20:20
  Right in the face. What the hell is in that Steam?
• 20:26
  Like AI like to think it's a sort of acid, you know?
• 20:28
  There you go. Hello, Orange patrol.
• 20:30
  There you go again. Hello.
• 20:31
  Orange patrol, yes. That's I'm getting the bowl of
• 20:34
  hats and the tent the vessels in.
• 20:36
  Yep, three tickets for the broom lawn.
• 20:39
  Stand now. I'm watching the action now.
• 20:44
  Please continue to make the Scottish jokes.
• 20:49
  See this is the difficult part of the podcast if you don't get
• 20:51
  the Skype. Watching Scottish football jokes
• 20:54
  alongside it, but yeah, you know.
• 20:56
  It does happen every now and again, you know, I'll get caught
• 20:58
  up with watching the programme and I'll just start talking
• 21:01
  completely, but that is, there's a lot of Archie Bargie going on
• 21:04
  here. That's a bit of festive coughs,
• 21:07
  yeah. Made of that steam.
• 21:10
  And actually, but what's surprising is it isn't just like
• 21:13
  a minute or two. I think it this action thing
• 21:15
  just runs for nearly sort of 5 minutes and it doesn't even end,
• 21:20
  does it? Because it ends with the Doctor
• 21:21
  just basically going, you know, no further, watching his lapels
• 21:25
  and stepping into the light. Yeah, and you don't get bored
• 21:29
  watching it, do you? It doesn't feel like it's
• 21:31
  stretched out over several minutes.
• 21:34
  No. So even better, Look, we go look
• 21:37
  how gorgeous that looks. Gosh, alive off it.
• 21:41
  Goes that that's sharp enough that could be The Avengers
• 21:44
  there. That looks really great and it's
• 21:46
  gone from what ailing to location.
• 21:49
  Yeah, we have our own location and sort of Fitzrovia here now,
• 21:53
  but that's just on the DVD. Can you imagine how good this is
• 21:54
  going to look when it comes out in Blu-ray?
• 21:56
  It's going to pop. It's going to be something
• 21:59
  special, isn't it? I love this bit.
• 22:01
  In a minute, yeah. Look, he's he smokes the crates
• 22:04
  and all of a sudden look at them.
• 22:05
  They're absolutely. It's like an inferno.
• 22:09
  It's a multi purpose tool. Is that the bit where the
• 22:12
  fellows? Inspire your face and set free
• 22:13
  on. Fire, yes.
• 22:16
  Yeah, this is it. Let's see.
• 22:19
  You can just see him running out of the back.
• 22:20
  There, that man there on the left who just had the megaphone,
• 22:23
  the soldier. I recognize him from another
• 22:25
  story. You know, sometimes you see
• 22:27
  faces from other stories. I don't know what he's in now,
• 22:30
  you know, I'm honest. They can look him up later.
• 22:33
  Look at this fella. You try any tricks like that,
• 22:36
  we'll open fire again. You'll be sent to bed without
• 22:40
  your teeth. Is he not the guy that jumps
• 22:43
  from the balcony in Green Death? Yes, he is.
• 22:48
  He is good sport. You're.
• 22:51
  Right. OK, cool.
• 22:52
  I thought it was. Yeah, the one who goes, you
• 22:55
  know, I cannot resist the boss. Who weirdly gets hypnotized.
• 23:00
  Yeah, but. Can't resist the boss.
• 23:05
  The Springsteen mate doesn't mean you have to kill yourself.
• 23:08
  We need someone to do strange hypnotized acting.
• 23:10
  Remember that fella from the war machines getting back?
• 23:13
  Actually, I think they look pretty great on location.
• 23:16
  They do, yeah, they do, once you see them with that.
• 23:19
  Can prepare to get. Hard.
• 23:20
  There we go. Watch this, Cliff faggot.
• 23:23
  All right, here we go. This is cushion in the lap time.
• 23:27
  Everybody else, the soldiers, they've all backed off.
• 23:31
  Not William Hart, No. Oh no. 1st Doctor says you want
• 23:35
  some? Come and get it.
• 23:37
  Come. OK, so.
• 23:40
  He does look a bit perturbed, doesn't he?
• 23:43
  Like it was a bit like. What the fuck have I done?
• 23:46
  That's what he's thinking. I've not thought this through,
• 23:51
  but I've committed to the no it. Is crazy.
• 23:54
  Though, right, there's some clarifying other, wasn't it?
• 23:58
  I mean now as you come to explore more of the 60s, I've
• 24:02
  realised, I'm talking slightly condescending me now.
• 24:04
  But as you do come to educate yourself more in the 60s, you'll
• 24:08
  probably see just how out of the ordinary this is in terms of its
• 24:13
  execution, certainly. Certainly, yeah, without doubt.
• 24:20
  Well guys, I think it's time for us to see whether William
• 24:24
  Hartnell is going to be trampled over by an enormous tank in
• 24:28
  Covent Garden. That is how he's going to exit
• 24:31
  Doctor Who. Are you ready to cover?
• 24:33
  Watch Episode 4. Let's go.
• 24:35
  Let's do it. Let's go #4.
