Season 2 (Doctor Who 1963): Difference between revisions

It consisted of nine serials comprised of thirty-nine episodes. Milestones this season included not one but two encore appearances by the Daleks; the departure of the original three companions, Susan Foreman, Barbara Wright and Ian Chesterton; and the first appearance of someone else from the Doctor and Susan's home planet, and the first Time Lord enemy to appear.

Amongst the black and white seasons, season 2 has the most extant telerecordings; only the two missing episodes of The Crusade have not been recovered as of 2022.

Notes[[edit]]

Planet of Giants is notable in that it is one of few Classic Who stories to not have had a making-of documentary produced as part of the DVD range for its release on that medium. As noted on the DVD release, this was due to the lack of individuals involved in the story still being alive, with only William Russell and Carole Ann Ford surviving to the release.
This is the first complete black and white season of Doctor Who to be released on Blu-ray as part of The Collection range.

 === Notes ===
-* Each story consisted of between two and six episodes, with each chapter having a different episode title. Unlike Season 1, however, the overall titles given to Season 2 stories are generally widely accepted.
+* ''Planet of Giants'' is notable in that it is one of few Classic Who stories to not have had a making-of documentary produced as part of the DVD range for its release on that medium. As noted on the DVD release, this was due to the lack of individuals involved in the story still being alive, with only [[William Russell]] and [[Carole Ann Ford]] surviving to the release.
