Remember when… the Third Doctor regenerated?
It’s just another manic Monday, another Remember when, and another regeneration!
This week, the Third Doctor takes the limelight, as we relive his heartbreaking final moments in the 1974 serial, Planet of the Spiders. After defeating the Spider Queen and vanishing in the TARDIS, the Doctor was nowhere to be seen, and his faithful companion Sarah Jane never thought she’d see her best friend again. Disappearing acts have the Doctor’s name all over them though – just ask Amy Pond that!
Of course our beloved Time Lord’s always got a surprise or two up his sleeve (that’s why we love him!), and three weeks later Sarah Jane and the Brigadier heard that beautiful sound of the materialising TARDIS once more. But out of it stumbled a weak Doctor. His time was up yet again and he transformed before their very eyes. “A tear, Sarah Jane?”
Talkin’ ’bout regeneration? There’s plenty more where that came from! Take a trip in the TARDIS to commemorate the final moments of the First and Fourth Doctors – allons-y!
I loved this Doctor! Before DT and after TB, he ws my fave! I was sorry to see him go!
