Was watching a 1973 BBC Doc about bikers, and it happened to film the very start of a doctor who episode. Unfortunately it only shows the opening, and some audio of the episode is included. youtu.be/ng8Ll7x08Vk?t=20m8s |

It is certainly from "Planet of the Daleks" - I think from Episode Three.

How ironic that it's Episode Three on a B&W screen.
Also, the Pertwee titles look really good on that TV for some reason.

What time in the clip does it appear?
EDIT: Never mind, found it (20'20").

Wasn't there a Caribbean documentary that had a clip of a Troughton story playing in the background?
I do remember a segment in an old Songs of Praise that showed a family sitting down to watch a late Tom Baker story, though only the opening titles were shown.

Unfortunately,although the 70s were a golden era for Dr Who just watching the lack of style,lank hair and terrible clothes of the Hell's Angels sums up the 70s as the era that style forgot.I remember that time well and although the TV is showing a classic piece of TV,it was a bright light in what was generally a dark period of poor taste in clothes and attitudes.

Please don't go all Gok Wan on us, Jaz.  The true appeal of the 1970s is hidden deep beneath all the terrible cars and other purportedly futuristic tat - some brilliant films, fantastic music, cult TV and real personalities worthy of the title "Celebrity" bestrode our TV screens. I should carefully qualify that last nomination, given developments legal and investigatory in recent years.  |

You're quite right Simon,the 70s were a very fertile era,it's just that the morons in the clip remind me of the types that used to bully me in school from 1974-1978 when I used to live in West London as a Sikh with long hair.However,everything has a positive side-they made me develop a keen sense of humour which I used in later years to get those same people to become my friends!Now that is a VERY 1970s thing to happen! |

IMO anyone who doesn't think the 70s was the best decade since the dawn of civilisation is seriously in denial.
It's where human creativity peaked before commercialism spoiled it all.

Sorry Mate - thought you were referencing the MFI slide out bed in the Tardis and the clothes in POTDs. Bullies and violence were too much in evidence back then. Hope our kids appreciate their schooling nowadays where respect and anti-bullying is promoted. My 20 month old had his first taste of Doctor who on Saturday. Only the best for him - the Cybermen emerging from their cells in Tomb |

I must admit I like 60s Doctor Who best so I slightly defeat my own argument.
I love 70s music and lots of 70s TV, though.
Interesting about schools and bullying on TV. We used to watch Grange Hill religiously back when it started in the 70s. It seemed more *real* to the episodes of later decades. Is this because schools have changed or because the portrayal on TV of schools has changed?

Richard We're going a bit off thread here but if you grew up in the 1960s or 70s, your life was shaped by people who had fought in wars and for many, "taking your licks" and coping with bullies was all part of life that you got on with. It's a bit unthinkable now. In Grange Hill, you saw cheeky kids, sarcastic teachers and other school life that seemed very familiar to me. The only other school show I took note of prior to that was "Please Sir". Tenuous Doctor Who link there - John Alderton > Pauline Collins > Samantha Briggs >Faceless Ones > Missing Eps. |

I'm sure someone will come up with a Grange Hill -> Doctor Who link.
To my mind the question will always be: have we improved the situation or hidden it?
And on the other hand, look at all the racism / misogyny that we get on the internet now.
I know - off topic. Very interesting though.
