Revision as of 16:11, 15 April 2023

This topic might have a better name.

This should be covering the whole 1999 version of The Crusade or at least covering the new scenes under a title that isn’t made up

Talk about it here.

This page should be merged.

It should be relocated at The Crusade (home video) because its a duplicate

A VHS release titled The Crusade was a reimagining of the televised story. It featured the two remaining episodes and remade the other two with new scenes of William Russell as Ian Chesterton talking about the events.

It featured Ian Chesterton on-screen for the first time since The Chase in 1965, thus a 34 year gap between appearances.

William Russell later appeared in An Adventure in Space and Time as Harry the security guard, and in the same story Jamie Glover (son of Julian Glover and Isla Blair) played Russell himself.

Synopsis

Sir Ian Chesterton guides a documentary crew into his home as he tells his audience about something that happened over 30 years ago.

An older Sir Ian

Plot

Ian Chesterton is participating in a video that will tell people just how the events of him meeting Richard the Lionheart went.

He recalls his adventures with the First Doctor, and tells us he is absolutely certain that the Doctor is still travelling in time and space.

Ian tells us how the Doctor was old when he was young, and later goes on to show us a suit of armour, saying that he keeps this in his study as a reminder of the adventure. He tells us if he told people everything, they'd think he was mad.

He goes on to say if he actually wanted people to think he was really mad, then he could tell people his name was Sir Ian Chesterton as he was knighted over "700 years ago".

Ian makes us aware of how the adventure ended and goes back to his book cabinet, selects a book and begins to read. He will never forget... the Doctor.
