This week on It Was a Thing on TV we continue with our Doctor Who 60th Anniversary celebration!
First, Doctor Who was an instantaneous sensation that, in 1964, the ABC in Australia commissioned a show similar to yet different from The Doctor. Thought to be lost for decades, The Stranger found its way to the Internet in 2019. Judge for yourself as we continue our tribute to the Doctor’s 60th anniversary.
Then, Vincent Price wanted to bring Doctor Who to the States, with an American version. When that failed, he decided to make his own version aboard a train. Time Express was a limited series, starting while Supertrain was still airing. Both shows got derailed in May 1979.
