In 1966, in a tall London tower, Professor Brett has developed the computer WOTAN that can think for itself and will soon impartially run all the computers in the world to improve the human race's efficiency....WOTAN unfortunately has other ideas. AKA Doctor Who enters the swinging 60s for the first time and the Doctor begins his war against machines. _____DOCTOR: Are you seriously telling me, sir, that you have invented a machine that can think?BRETT: Yes.DOCTOR: And never makes mistakes?BRETT: Never.________________________STONE: It seems to me by the way you're talking, sir, that this machine can think for itself like a human being.SUMMER: It can. Only much more accurately.STONE: But sir, I mean, isn't this kinda risky? I mean, suppose it decides it can do without people, what then?__________________________________________________________Upcoming:Celebrating Companions: Dodo ChapletOh, Dodo....there was so much potential with this companion that was squandered. It often feels as if the writers just held her in contempt but didn't want to write her out of the story. And that's a shame. Dodo could have been an interesting companion if anyone had bothered figuring out her story. We are going to take a moment to celebrate the good parts and mourn what could have been.
