This Sunday night, BBC America's special classic episode is ...........

[Mikey]

The Tomb of the Cyberman

Great pick, imo

[Earth 2 Chris]

Which Doctor is this? I will admit I have only watched a scant bit of Who here and there over the years. It very rarely aired on our local PBS station, and that was it.

The Second Doctor - Patrick Troughton (in B&W)

[johnmiic]

I'm guessing you may not see many color episodes aired. The B&W ones look like vintage old films instead of shot on video. I think an audience in the US would say, OK those are old & dated but I can accept the way they look because they're in B&W. The color stuff from Pertwee onwards probably won't appeal as much to new audiences of BBC America. I have a friend who won't touch any DW prior to 2005 stuff because it's on video and it looks like a cheap soap opera to him. Kind'a the reverse of why they ditched the B&W stories.

of the handful of complete Troughton's this was the one I hoped they'd use. And now new fans can see classic cybermen YEAH

[Gorn Captain]

One of the best episodes ever. Cool.

[Nostalgiabuff]

I don't think I have ever seen it, or any of Troughtons episodes for that matter. I started Dr. Who with Pertwee and Baker so those are the 2 I have always loved. I am looking forward to checking it out tomorrow though, course it will have to wait on the DVR since Walking Dead is on at 9

One thing for the people that haven't seen it yet ... In this story the Cybermen are a bit hard to understand .... The Cybermen are still being tinkered with and don't have a definitive look and sound yet.

Just warning yous, you might have to use the replay button a few times

[Mikey]

I'm very letdown they squeezed it into letterbox

That was just DUMB and totally ruined it making it short fat and distorted

I give it a big fat -ZERO for that

Jeeze

Thought it was cool when they said Matt Smith used The Second Doctor as the basis for his Doctor. I wonder what they'll do next month for Pertwee?

I'm going to guess it will be a Master story - Perhaps Terror of the Autons

I'm hoping they do The Time Warrior. The first Sarah Jane adventure. Pertwee is my favorite Doctor as he is who (<-- funny) I started with. And Sarah Jane. . . I love me some Sarah Jane. RIP Ms. Sladen.

I also had to wait for the encore showing due to the Walking Dead. During which. BBC America experienced Technical Difficulty's and I missed the entire ending. Now I have to wait again for another re-airing!!! BOOOOOOOO!!!

That sux

Tomb was on netflix here for a while, I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. I found it better paced than most JNT stuff.
