The 330th episode of Doctor Who airs on BBC1. This is the series’ first “multi-Doctor” celebratory story, featuring Patrick Troughton as the second Doctor, with appearances by William Hartnell as the first Doctor (though Hartnell’s participation in the story has been significantly reduced due to his failing health; he never appears on set with his successors, appearing only in pre-recorded film inserts). Stephen Thorne guest stars as Omega. Oddly, given the timing of this episode’s broadcast, the “tenth anniversary story” begins airing closer to the ninth anniversary of Doctor Who’s premiere than its tenth.
