Okay... So what's the implication here? Does the show Doctor Who exist in-canon of the fictional real world of Doctor Who? Is it a recreation of the Doctor's previous adventures? How do people going forward not know who the Doctor is?
Obviously it's not delayed either, because this episode takes place in 1963, the year Doctor Who first aired.
One of the reasons why I love Remembrance of the Daleks so damn much is that it implies that during the escape from Gallifrey, Susan must have been like "why did we need to bring the hand of Omega with us" and the First Doctor was just like
One didn't even know about the Daleks by this point, he just knew shit was about to go down in a few centuries time
This is a good one! Extremely quotable. Daleks are always great too of course. It's fun getting to know Ace since she's the new companion too. The Doctor starts to take a little darker turn from here as well. Good stuff.
Watching Remembrance of the Daleks right now and seeing the Seventh Doctor use his umbrella as a cane over and over again just strengthens my disability headcanons
My favorite Doctor Who Companion in her Shining Moment and a callback to that Moment; I'm a big fan of Ace and her actress Sophie Aldred, she really brings the character a grounded sense of humanity and warmth.
