Season Fifteen brims
with character and is bristling with ideas. If the production values sometimes
flag you hardly notice because there is so much going on. Admittedly it’s not
always cited as a fan favourite because it was the point at which Tom Baker’s
presence became larger than life but if you enjoy that- and I certainly do-
this is essential classic Doctor Who. Season Fifteen is a changeover
season and these can be the most interesting ones where a production team are
finding their feet and yet aspects of their predecessors remain. The results
here are more varied than you’d expect.
