Alex and Andy watch the partially lost Troughton adventure The Faceless Ones. While Andy realises that there's more to this story than crouching beside aircraft wheels, Alex cottons on that this isn't Ben's first story!

Although they find much to enjoy here: Pauline Collins, the postcard plot, and clappy music to name just three, Ales and Andy admit to being confused by the Chameleons plan, but are pleased that one of them at least gets to visit Dubrovnik and other European cities in order to pursue their dastardly goals.

Kilts are discussed in some detail and there are tangential excursions to the BSB Doctor Who Weekend, BDO World Darts, Dimensions in Time and Upstairs Downstairs.

In the quiz Alex has to guess Gold or Silver, while the Time-Space Visualiser offers The Motors and Deacon Blue on its teeny tiny black and white screen.

Although they both watched different formats of the story ahead of this podcast the pair still put out a call for yet another format: the bananimated version - where bananas replace the cast. Who wouldn't want to see that?!

Next Time: Something Hartnell this way comes (William not Norman).
