Review The Macra Terror (1967)

[Doctor Omega]

It was just the drum majorette music from the opening of episode one, from the 50th anniversary music album....




Certainly very different to Dudley's usual 6 man orchestra, BLAKE'S 7/Graham William's era stuff...

But I like it!

I saw this for the first time last night on BBCAmerica. Splendid! I came here to see if there was a thread on it, and of course there is! Thanks for sharing all those videos, it's interesting what they changed. Anneke Wills agreed to have an onscreen haircut? lol

I was saying, in another message board, that in THE WAR MACHINES Ben resisted the brain washing, but here he was the one companion to succumb. But of course, somebody had to, for this story to work, so the writer picked him. I guess he was the most logical choice?

Plus as Jamie was becoming the writers favourite choice it was time for Ben to go!
