The TARDIS materialises in what appears to be a no-man’s-land on a World War I battlefront in France. When the Doctor, Jamie and Zoe emerge from a cloud of mist into another period of time, they realise that they are in fact on an entirely different planet that has been split into different time zones – where a fierce war is being waged in each one.
The wars are controlled by ‘aliens’, who have gathered soldiers form many periods of history, brainwashed them and put them to battle with the aim of forming an invincible army from the survivors to take over the galaxy. The War Lord is assisted by a Security Chief and a War Chief, the latter of whom the Doctor quickly recognises as a member of his own race… the Time Lords!
First Broadcast between the 19th April – 21st June 1969
Starring Patrick Troughton as the Second Doctor alongside Frazer Hines (Jamie McCrimmon) and Wendy Padbury (Zoe Heriot)

Patrick Troughton’s face is truly that of a unique actor. All the Doctors are incredibly devoted to creating the character and the progression through to Capaldi was so intriguing throughout the years. Unfortunately the writing also comes into play. I tried to watch Jodi Whitaker and have heard many times that she is a good actor. Just never could stand the stories.
May the rulers of all times and ages get their damnation
I’ve seen so few of these older episodes. This was a great one.
Are you putting the War Games in colour on the Doctor who offical youtube channel.
i enjoyed Patrick way more then i thought i did, when i started the second doctor i thought he was gonna be my least favorite from his appearance, boy was i wrong, just like every other doctor from 9-15 ive already seen, he grew on me and this last arc was amazing but alas i must say my goodbye to Patrick Troughton and say hello to John Pertwee, i cant wait to see what he’ll be like as the doctor
I love this story! I always wonder, does popping someone on the head with a flowerpot actually knock them out?
“pockets of resistance popping up all over” 👍🏼
