Review: Doctor Who Classic: Dimensions in Time

1993. The thirtieth anniversary of Doctor Who came, and the show had been off for 4 years. A Children in Need special was the only thing for it, something mad, bringing back all remaining Doctors - 3 to 7. And it was bad. Oh so very bad. But it was also quite fun, if you accept that it's just a dream or something, and you really get a good look at the different Doctors and how seriously they're playing the part.
     What little of a plot there is might make for a decent program - The Rani (much more devillish here) abducts the Doctor's forms, companions and several of his enemies and locks them in a small dingy area of London, ready for her to remove from Time. Oh, and that area of London is Walford. From Eastenders. I'm serious.
     While horrifically badly directed, it's good fun and cringing in places. It dates really quickly due to the Eastenders aspect. Jon Pertwee is having a blast, Tom Baker is rambling on a bit, Peter Davison is deadly serious, and the Sixth and Seventh are laughing it up. It just seems so shoddily thrown together (a lot of fans were amazed to discover that this actually had a script) that there's no point in taking it seriously.
     It was part of the actors' contracts that the episode never be shown on television again, and now no official copy exists. Luckily, people did record the episode and now it's on YouTube. Hurrah?

Thanks.
