Guess the Episode 21

Once again, I’ve got five screenshots of a classic Doctor Who serial. Go through them guessing what the episode is, then look at the answer. I’ve also got bonus screenshots, both for fun and if you haven’t guessed after five.

Good round! I got it in 5!

I realized that it’s a medieval episode from the castle in #2. But I wasn’t sure which one - The Time Warrior? Masque of Mandragora? - until I saw Mr. Davison in the last one.

Thanks! It was one of these ones where some of the bonus ones could easily have made it into the main five. I was tempted to see if anyone recognised the Master’s disguised TARDIS, but I decided against it…

I got it in three. The first two images had me pretty lost. Some nice shots in the bonuses!

Needed four guesses before I got this one :slightly_smiling_face:

I didn’t get this one.

Definitely enjoyed the bonuses. I rather like the Doctor’s outfit in Bonus 6, for example, I very much had to get a Kameleon shot in, and I love the shot of Tegan

I also feel like this is probably a serial that doesn’t get rewatched as much, which probably makes it harder.

If anyone’s curious, I tend to do several of these at a time, so a lot of the recent harder ones were done in the same session…

Took me five too - I also was stuck on Time Warrior until I saw Five and then it clicked. Can’t remeber the last time I saw this one!

Got it in five. Was thinking Time Warrior at #2 and Androids of Tara at #3 and #4 had me totally confused, and Davison clinched it for me.

In two because I thought the first image was from The Mark of the Rani.

I thought the first image was

Tom Baker or maybe Mary Tamm in that orange costume and a fur hat, and I thought it maybe was like Deadly Assassin or Android of Tara.

Then I thought it was propably Tara even when looking at 2 and 3 although the castle felt a bit too normal to be Tara. I almost thought of that one 7 episode where ace and 7 visit an old castle and there’s also a few tourist visiting including propably the Brigadier and also some behind the scene faces including John Nathan-Turner. I think it was Silver Nemesis.

Then it clicked at 4 because of the dwarf jester!

Took me five. No excuses. Not really a favourite of mine.
