Riverside Studios are delighted to bring to you our next DOCTOR WHO episode showcase, which includes episodes filmed here at the studios back when it functioned as a BBC filming centre. Riverside was crucial to the early filming of DOCTOR WHO in its 'classic era', and this showcase features episodes from two beloved serials: The Faceless Ones and The Underwater Menace!

Doctor Who writers and episode lineup curators Gavin Rymill and James Goss will introduce each of the episodes, providing a brief watcher's guide, then offer up a quick "post-show post-mortem" before introducing the next episode, with a final Q&A afterwards
