A Fix With Sontarans

Overall: Series 11, Episode 12? (of Jim’ll Fix It)
Airdates: 23 Feb 1985

Directed by Marcus Mortimer

Notes

  • This aired on the same day as Episode 2 of The Two Doctors aired.
  • This was officially not a Doctor Who episode, but a 9 minute segment for the old “Jim’ll Fix it” show with Jimmy Savile.  Given what happened with him, when it was released on Blu-Ray in 2022, his parts of the video were edited out. The original version was previously available on the old 2011 DVD version, which was released before all the shit hit the fan with Savile.

Always found it amusing that the leader of the Sontarans was seemingly named after show producer John Nathan-Turner.
