Description:
"When you travel around as much as I do, it's almost inevitable that you'll run into yourself at some point." When the Doctor (Colin Baker) lands on a space station in the Third Zone, he suspects he's been there before and when he discovers his former assistant, Jamie, he's certain. Accompanied by Jamie and his present assistant, Peri, the Doctor follows himself (Patrick Troughton) to 20th century Seville. There he discovers his old enemies, the Sontarans, about to dissect him in a genetic operation. But just why are they operating on the Doctor? And how will their findings aid their enslavement of the universe? Deadly questions to which the Doctors must find answers in order to escape their own excruciating death. Originally transmitted February 16 - March 2, 1965, this three-part adventure starring Colin Baker features the late Patrick Troughton's final appearance as the Doctor.

Doctor Who: The Two Doctors is one of those occasional adventures in which the then-current Doctor joins forces with one of his former incarnations, here Colin Baker's sixth Doctor with Patrick Troughton's second Doctor. In the epic Three Doctors (1972-73) such a team-up faced a suitably overwhelming danger; here the threat is rather less impressive. This adventure starts encouragingly enough, with Troughton and Jamie (Frazer Hines) investigating time-travel experiments on a space station, which endanger the fabric of the universe. Baker's Doctor and Peri (Nichola Bryant) arrive in the aftermath of a massacre and suspect the Timelords; but events lead them to Spain and old enemies the Sontarans. Also involved is alien schemer Chessene (Jacqueline Pearce) in a role not dissimilar to her Servalan from Blake's 7, while John Stratton as Shockeye, a food-obsessed alien "Androgum" chef, is vastly entertaining. Despite location filming in Seville, the three 45-minute episodes eventually stretch the material too thinly, degenerating into some of the most farcical scenes in the history of Who. The story becomes a repetitive series of double-crosses, escapes and pursuits, featuring an unnecessary obsession with cannibalistic comedy-horror. Despite many fine moments along the way The Two Doctors ultimately leaves a bad taste. --Gary S. Dalkin

I could probably write a novel about my tribute to "The Two Doctors" but I'll do my best to keep it short. My favourite two doctors from the classic series (and indeed, overall) are Patrick Troughton and Colin Baker. So it doesn't take a genius to work out that this story is my favourite all-time. Why? Simply of the fun that the story seems to have. It's as though everyone decided to take a holiday and make this story while they were doing so.
The result? A dark comedy would be best ... Read More

I was really disappointed with this episode. The writer, Robert Holmes, had been the script editor during the show's best times in the mid-70s, but this episode was basically tripe. To start with, the plot was ill-conceived. Sontarans, one of the show's best villains, were competely unnecessary to the plot - they added nothing. Further, the Sontarans were poorly realized both in costume and in acting (much as they had been in 1978's The Invasion of Time).
I actually didn't mind ... Read More

Being a longtime Doctor Who fan, I've always thought Colin Baker had the misfortune of being a very good Doctor but in an era with sometimes somewhat weak scripts which began to go downhill in the '80's and hit rock bottom with the McCoy era. I've seen Colin in other shows both before and after his time as the Doctor and he's always been very good. The best example of the somewhat weak script idea is this story which also features maybe my favorite Doctor and Jamie. The Second Doctor and Jamie look ... Read More

At the time this mini-reunion episode was conceived, the series was plagued with production / union issues, Colin Baker was given the short end of the stick so much so that come regeneration time he wouldn't even return for the transitional shots. Today, unhampered by these problems, Baker's 6th Doctor portrayal is much improved in the audio format currently being done by BIG FINISH PRODUCTIONS (some concepts of which have been borrowed by the new series compare 2005's "Dalek" TV adventure with Colin ...
