I’m back after my password adventure. Much quicker to make these with a two-parter and only 10 questions. I think this one is a bit easier than the last one, but here goes.

  1. Who is the very first one of the four to wake up? Barbara
  2. The Doctor is delirious and rambles something about Susan, what does he say? “I can’t take you back, Susan. I can’t.”
  3. What color on the bandage does Susan say indicates that the wearer’s wounds are fully healed? White
  4. The TARDIS scanner shows Quinnis, where is Quinnis located? The fourth universe
  5. Which scene resulted in Verity Lambert having to write a letter of apology? Susan’s violent behavior with scissors
  6. This story was the first to properly establish what long lasting piece of Doctor Who lore? The TARDIS is sentient
  7. How was the fast return switch indicated on the TARDIS, in a way that Verity Lambert said wasn’t supposed to be present on screen? “Fast Return” is written in felt tip
  8. The Doctor uses another incorrect name for Ian, which one this time? Chartow
  9. From whom did the Doctor acquire his ulster coat? Gilbert and Sullivan
  10. The BBC has a copy of the second episode in which non-English language? Arabic

Bonus #1: Can only really give one point for the usual first bonus, but what is the title of the second episode? The Brink of Disaster
Bonus #2: Name the hints that the crew was given by the TARDIS that Barbara figured out. 1 point for each. The food machine, the broken clock, the lights on the fault locator, the wrong panels on the console zapping them, the scanner.

7/10 for me plus full points on the bonuses. I’m not sure if the quiz is necessarily easier than previous ones - I still had to think carefully about several of the questions- but it is easier to recall details from across two episodes rather than seven. It can’t be easy coming up with questions for a two-part story set entirely in the TARDIS either.

Everything, except number 8.
Gosh, really? I had forgotten all about that one! Mad that it’s not stuck in my head like all the other inaccurate Chesterton names that Hartnell rattles off.
