• The Spiritual Father of Who..., originally created by writer Nigel Kneale in the paranoia-fuelled 1950s, Quatermass - an intellectual professor defending the Earth from extraterrestrial threats through the use of brains rather than brawn - is an obvious precursor of The Doctor (who shares many of the same traits and convictions, despite being an alien himself).
• Doctor Who: Revenge Of The Cybermen (1975), once again, the cybermen prove themselves to be the masters of the unnecessarily convoluted plot: having found the "lost" planet Voga, a major source of gold, the cyberman kryptonite, instead of simply blowing it up from outer space, they concoct a ridiculous scheme involving a fake plague and bombs strapped to human beings.
  

The Tardis Project has "Prisoners of the Concergerie", Ian, Barbara and Jules are at Jules' house. Suddenly, there is a knock on the door and in walks the Doctor...followed by Lemaitre!
