It’s episode 16 of The Missing Episodes Podcast! The third story of season 4 introduces Patrick Troughton as a very different Doctor Who, if indeed he is The Doctor. A question which divides the rest of the TARDIS crew, Ben and Polly.

But despite this fundamental change to the show, this story doesn’t sit around navel gazing. We’re quickly immersed in the politics of Vulcan as David Whitaker returns to pen one of the truly great Dalek stories.

Tim is joined not only by Doctor Who historian Rhys Williams, but three new podcast guests: Something Who podcast host Richard Smith and multi-media producer and DVD range veteran John Kelly. Later, co-host of the most excellent 42 to Doomsday podcast, Rob Mammone, drops by to tell us how he helped to recover some of the many clips that exist of this story.

The team delve into the history, production and themes of this six-part classic, then explore how so many clips came back, then it’s off on a world tour to work out whether one day we might get to see any more…

So put on your Earth examiner badge, listen more carefully than Lesterson and avoid the mercury vapours as we take a very deep dive into The Power of the Daleks.
