the year of the show's 25th anniversary, the Seventh Doctor goes back to the start in this classic episode with Ace, landing in November
1963 to recover the powerful Hand of Omega and to stop the two rival Dalek factions getting "their grubby little protuberances on" it.
Come along to see the last appearance of the Daleks and their 'emperor' in the Classic Series!
