Speaking of Mr. Russell. He's starring in a new film with his son.

They really missed a trick by not having him appear in the 2014 and 2015 episodes when Clara was teaching there, and Capaldi was the caretaker

It would have been a nice tribute if he had appeared in the 50th anniversary episode 'The Day of the Doctor'

I know that he was in 'An Adventure In Space And Time'...

...and was an 'Easter Egg' in the parent show for sharp eyed viewers...

...but he should have had a walk on part as well

That always made me smile - how close a certain junk yard was to the school. Sort of made a mockery of An Unearthly Child as Ian and Barbara followed Susan home, must have followed her for all of two feet.

'Remembrance Of The Daleks' is one of the top five greatest stories in the history of the show, but it had a horrifyingly huge gaff in it!

They'll probably blame auto correct like all lazy folk do nowadays.

Doctor Who over the years: Episode quotes

Terror Of The Zygons – Part 1

Sarah: Anyway, it's nice to see you again, Brigadier.
The Brigadier: And you, Miss Smith.
Sarah: Though I didn't expect to see you in a kilt.
The Brigadier: My dear Miss Smith, as you remember, my name is Lethbridge Stewart. The clan Stewart.
Sarah: Oh, sorry. I thought you were doing a Doctor.
The Brigadier: What an absurd idea.
The Doctor: Brigadier, why have you called me back? I hope you've got a very good reason.
(A man wearing oil rig clothes and a life belt is washed up on the shore. The Doctor is sitting with his eyes closed while the Brigadier brings him and us up to speed.)
The Brigadier: All three rigs were in this area. Therefore it seems to us
The Doctor: Brigadier, Brigadier! Have you brought me two hundred and seventy million miles just to sort out a little trouble at sea?
The Brigadier: Three serious disasters, Doctor!
The Doctor: When I left the psionic beam with you, Brigadier, I said it was only to be used in an emergency.
The Brigadier: This is an emergency.
The Doctor: Oil an emergency? Huh! It's about time the people who run this planet of yours realised that to be dependent upon a mineral slime just doesn't make sense. Now, the energising of hydrogen
The Brigadier: Doctor, the destruction of these rigs is a complete mystery. Do you want more men to die?
The Doctor: No. Very well. When do we start?
The Brigadier: The oil company. We're paying them a visit this afternoon

Terror Of The Zygons – Part 2

[Sarah notices the Brigadier is stirring and alerts the Doctor]
Sarah: Hey, he's coming round.
The Doctor: Hmm?
[They move to stand over where the Brigadier is getting up off the floor. The Brigadier comes upright face-to-face with the Doctor]
The Brigadier: Ah, Doctor, there you are. [the Brigadier suddenly looks askance and pensive] What was I doing on the floor?
The Doctor: You've been asleep, Brigadier.
The Brigadier: Asleep? Impossible. I was on duty. There are times, Doctor, when you do talk absolute nonsense. Excuse me.
[the Brigadier walks past between them. The Doctor and Sarah share a chuckle]

Terror Of The Zygons – Part 3

Forgill: Perhaps you'll explain this intrusion?
The Doctor: Nobody opened the front door.
Forgill: I see. You have some reason for calling?
The Doctor: Yes.
Forgill: Well?
The Doctor: Brigadier?
The Brigadier: Yes?
The Doctor: Well, tell him.
The Brigadier: Oh, yes. Er, well sir, the fact is.
Forgill: The fact is what?
The Brigadier: We have reason to believe there's something rather unusual in the Loch.
Forgill: Loch Ness?
The Brigadier: Yes, sir.
Forgill: Don't tell me you've found the monster.
Sarah: As it happens, your Grace, that's just what we do mean.
Forgill: I do believe you're serious.
The Doctor: We are. Very.

Terror Of The Zygons – Part 4

The Brigadier: No, the cabinet's accepted my report and the whole affair's now completely closed.
The Duke: You mean it never happened.
The Brigadier: Er, well, a fifty foot monster can't swim up the Thames and attack a large building without some people noticing. But you know what politicians are like.

Reperused Planet Of Evil
Yet another that creeped me out as a bairn. The Doctor and Sarah Jane find themselves in another jam, as they land on Zeta Minor ... a planet with not so hidden danger lurking around every corner ahem. Another well meaning scientist is at the core of this particular tale ... a cornerstone of the genre ably portrayed by Frederick Jaeger. Plus you get to see Wisher in the flesh so to speak as one of the crew
