Of all the lost stories this is probably the one that is most missed. Good to have episode two, the soundtrack and 'The Final End' but it would be even better to have the other six episodes on film.
This episode shows how magnificent Dr. Who could be: superb script-writing, accomplished character actors, appropriate (and unobtrusive) incidental music, and Daleks at their menacing best. And because they had multiple episodes to tell the story, they could take their time to develop the plot, punctuated, of course, by melodramatic cliff-hangers. Sadly this is no longer so. Stories are compressed into a single episode, produced like Hollywood action films, complete with pulsating soundtrack.
Sorry, I did not see it was part 2 of episode two at first. I noticed when I switched to part three and went back to this one again. Thank you for posting.
If these episodes are anything like the Hartnell era, *long* sequences are filmed all in one go, largely without retakes. These little goofs are sometimes called "Hartnellisms". This particular one is similar to the first Doctor calling "Maitland" by the name of "Matron" in "The Sensorites". The early Doctor Who episodes had a lot in common with stage acting. And multiple actors giving their interpretations of The Doctor, over the years, also has a certain Shakespearian gist to it.
Like I want to wait every 10 min by the pc to load the next video!!

I love how the Doctor responds to the word Master. Even though this is four years before Terror of the Autons.
