And then over on our Discord, Keith Burton writes, The Fifth Doctor era was one I lived through as a young fan.
Riley SchreckHOST

There were massive highs in popularity from Castrovalva all the way through to The Five Doctors.
Riley SchreckHOST

We have a pre-title sequence.

I became a hardcore fan with Castrovalva, you know, because that's what I love about Doctor Who.
Steve O'BrienGUEST

You know, they're the great jumping on points, you know, a new Doctor.
Steve O'BrienGUEST

And so I thought, right, OK, I can, you know, this is kind of year zero for me.
Tom NeenanGUEST

It's the TARDIS crew walking around in a lovely sunny day.
Tom NeenanGUEST
8:00
For that reason, I guess you could also have Castrovalva.
Tom NeenanGUEST
8:02
I mean, there's quite a few sunny days.
Tom NeenanGUEST
8:08
But part of that is I really like the story.
