Series 1, Episode 5 - "We've all gone a little bit carried away on gorgonzola and wine."

Hit or Miss: Doctor Who is back in your timeline. This time, Mike and D.K. are once again joined by the brilliant Cliff Chapman for another trip through time and space — and the usual chaotic mix of Hit or Miss debates, friendly banter, and full-on nerd analysis. Our latest adventure? The Jon Pertwee classic Day of the Daleks! We dive deep into what makes this UNIT-era tale tick - Expect deep thoughts about Dalek strategy (or lack thereof), UNIT’s impeccable mustaches, and whether Jon Pertwee could have defeated the entire invasion with just a cape flourish and a glass of vintage wine. D.K. also gives us his exclusive first-time review of the Special Edition... despite owning it for years without realizing. (We blame either DVD overload or a casual disregard for linear time. It's very on-brand.) We'll tackle the infamous flaws that led to this much-needed new version (explosions! better Dalek voices! slightly less... slow action?) Expect chat about Pertwee being effortlessly cool, the might of UNIT (and their suspiciously poor aim), and how this story laid the groundwork for everything from Days of Future Past to The Terminator. Plus: Why the Controller might just be the real MVP, and whether Ogrons are the best henchmen ever... or just confused gorillas. All this and plenty more — because if there's one thing we know, it's that changing the past never goes wrong... right?
