This was quite different to the Doctor Who television series. It is not part of the mainstream canon of Doctor Who and it's a bit childish. However as a Whovian, I quite enjoyed it. It's very good quality on Blu-Ray (which was what I watched it on). Peter Cushing portrayed the Doctor (or Dr. Who, as he's referred to in this film) as a kinder person than William Hartnell did. This is, as you may know, based on the second episode of Doctor Who, "The Daleks", which I found more entertaining despite the fact that the special effects and picture quality wasn't quite as good. The Daleks themselves talked strangely but looked superb. The Thals looked weird due to the fact that their makeup was overdone. The storyline for the film is good and it has a nice and the film as a whole is enjoyable. I recommend this to fans of the classic Doctor Who series, and I also recommend it on Blu-Ray, it is remastered fantastically! On another note that may upset many, Dr. Who is human (as far as we know) in this film and they have a different theme- tune.
