It’s Lynne’s turn to do a hindsight-check. Join Deb, Katrina, and Lynne as they take a look back at the 3rd Doctor story “The Mutants”. (No, not the 1st Doctor story “The Mutants”. We call that “The Daleks”. Deal with it.)
Have you rewatched this story recently? If so, what did you think, and how did that compare with how you felt about it in the first place? Drop us a tweet or let us know in the comments!

Hi Verities!! I know you were bored, but I enjoyed your review, mainly because I agree with it! Hahaha! What I liked most is that you highlighted Rick Jones’ performance. While it’s not a great story, ‘Perceived Fan Wisdom’ over the years has ripped into that performance, and I’ve never understood why. In fact, it is one of the story’s saving graces. This is one of the best roles a black actor had in Classic Who; he gets to have some range in his arc, he has a sense of humor, and lives to the end! I wish I could know what Noel Clarke said.
