Doctor Who: The Pertwee Years
Synopsis
Following on from the other documentaries 'The Hartnell Years' and 'The Troughton Years', which showcased rare surviving episodes from incomplete stories. There are no missing Pertwee episodes, so instead, using a similar format with interviews and clips, Jon Pertwee introduces full episodes from his favourite stories - "Inferno" (episode 7), "The Frontier in Space" (final episode) and Pertwee's personal favourite, the final episode of "The Daemons".
