The Rescue
"Genesis of Vicki", "Dido
Another Day", "Mr Benn(ett)"
"The One with the Rude Name"
(USA), "Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure on Dildo" (Adrian
Rigglesford's book)
Doctor Who works out that the
only suspect in his murder investigation happens to be the murderer.
*** - It fills 49 minutes
without overstaying its welcome.

Owing to it’s miniature
status, The Rescue is officially one of the cutest Dr Who stories ever
made. Only Mission to the Unknown is cuter. The Rescue is as cute as Edge
of Destruction, The Sontaran Experiment, Black Orchid, The Awakening and
Kings Demons. The stories of Season 22 are not deemed to have two episode
cuteness owing to their 45 minute status.
The scene where Barbara kills
Sandy was nominated for a BAFTA.
The scene where the Doctor
reveals the identity of the murderer had to be shot six times and William
Hartnell kept lapsing into a Belgian accent.
The low budget nature of this
story meant that there was money left over for the production team to hire
a prostitute for the evening.

"I was at a semi popular Doctor Who fan
organised gathering when I heard two females discussing Story L in a
private alcove of the bar. I felt they might welcome my expert
intervention and so walked over to them, taking care not to be seen by
either female. "I certainly wouldn't mind coming down on Dildo" said one
of them with a chuckle. I instantly realised that they were witless
proles. "Don't be pathetically stupid" I said, proving I could be witty
while leaping out from behind a cheese plant, "that was simply an
unfortunate typographical error in Mr Rigglesford's book and anyone who
has seen Story L will know that the planet is in fact called Dido. Making
smutty light of a misprint is, frankly, beneath contempt and if I had my
way you'd all have to go on a compulsory typesetting course to ensure you
fully respect the profession." I was drawing breath for a further witty
paragraph when I noticed that the females had begun k-i-s-s-i-n-g and, not
wishing to be contaminated, I rushed back to the manly safety of the bar
where Ian Devine was waiting for me with a small glass of sherry and a
firm handshake."
