BF 178: 1963 Fanfare For The Common Men
If you remember the Sixties, they say, then you can’t have been there.
The Doctor remembers the Sixties. That’s why he’s taking Nyssa on a trip back to November 1963. Back to where it all began. Back to the birth of the biggest band in the history of British music. Back to see those cheeky lads from Liverpool...
Mark, James and Korky. The Common Men. The boys who made the Sixties swing with songs like Oh, Won’t You Please Love Me?, Just Count To Three and Who Is That Man.
The Doctor remembers the Sixties. And there’s something very wrong with the Sixties, if the Beatles no longer exist…Pity. I have no understanding of the word. It is not registered in my vocabulary bank. EXTERMINATE!

I liked it. Doctor Who seems to work really well when it pastiches something else, such as Hammer Horror. But who'd have thought 'Doctor Who Meets The Rutles' would have been a big success?
The tunes are catchy too. Worryingly so. 'Who are you? I'm the maaan from above!' I'm sure it must be the alien influence affecting my brain.Pity. I have no understanding of the word. It is not registered in my vocabulary bank. EXTERMINATE!

I haven't finished it yet, so unless it all goes wrong in the final episode, this will be a very strong and fun story.
I agree about the songs and music- really nicely done without being too obviously based on famous Beatles songs.
I've just got my handcuffs and my truncheon and that's enough.
