Peri and Sixth Doctor in Tales of the TARDIS

The complete new scenes with Peri and the Sixth Doctor in Tales of the TARDIS Episode 3 "Vengeance on Varos."

These scenes are intended to be bookends to the Classic Who serial "Vengeance on Varos." As the scenes are not available outside the UK, I have uploaded them to YouTube for international fans. For the intended experience, watch "Vengeance on Varos" Episodes 1 and 2 at the cut.

Notably, the events of this episode of Tales of the TARDIS reference the mini-sode "The Eternal Mystery" created to promote Doctor Who: The Collection — Season 22. "The Eternal Mystery" is available on YouTube.

Overly negative comments that are elitist or disrespectful to the original creators will be removed.

Seeing The Doctor and Peri Brown reunited was the closure I never knew I needed!

Colin truly loves playing the Doctor, as you can see here, he truly has a firm understanding of the character and it’s beautiful to see him being written respectfully, he felt more like the Doctor here than he did before.

I adore that Colin's Doctor, notorious for being one of the most abrasive and bad-tempered iterations of the character, gets to come back more akin to a time-travelling Santa Claus

I met Colin back in late 90s at a conference for the Star Wars prequels.He was so genuinely warm to me a stranger.Its great to see these mini episodes with colin being part of it.

Good revision of the suit. I know Colin’s mentioned he hated it so it’s nice to see him pull off a nice pink suit with the patterned pocket square inspired by the original costume.

What a great tribute to 6 and Peri. Wonderful to see Colin get a script, however short, that pays his character respect.

I’m so ashamed of the awful memories I had of The Sixth Doctor growing up. I never appreciated him for what he was and what Collin had been through. He truly adored Doctor Who and playing The Doctor and was done a disservice by The BBC and writers. I’m so glad Big Finish has told more in depth stories and I’m so grateful for Tales of The TARDIS opening up all these potential doors for even more.

If you haven't listened to their Big Finish audio dramas, you are really missing out. Colin has such a wonderfully distinctive voice, and his unique take on the Doctor really shines in the Big Finish audios. Yes, he still plays a more egocentric and snarky Doctor in the audios, but there is also great compassion and a humanity that was never really featured in the TV episodes.

I love that RTD gave them this opportunity. It's great to see Colin play the Doctor without Eric Saward's attempts at character assignation.

[Benjiesbeenbetter.]

I want to see this as a series. Colin deserved so much better than what he was given back in the day.

[ArcaneWolf]

LOVE that they incorporated the detail from the boxed set preview video that Peri returns to the memorial every year with the Doc. The people who make these things really do show a lot of love for their work.

[Enivri]

I love how they did a nod to how Peri and the Doctor walk around the Tardis console, one would go one way, and one would go the other, Peri did it once to try and get away from the Doctor, this time she was trying to give him a hug.

[HalloweenRock]

Wonderful! So glad to see Colin Baker getting a chance to play the Doctor again and with Peri. I know Tom Baker is extreme old at this point but my god, there's a chair sitting right there just put him in it and let him do what comes naturally. Seeing him in the 50th anniversary brought tears to my eyes. How moving would it be to see him again done in such a loving and respectful way.

[KingofPotatoPeople]

At the end I half expected Brian Blessed to burst in shouting ‘VERUMNIC!’

[LeonardoTDragon]

Honestly, Colin has always been "my Doctor" in terms of favorites. There was such an earnest love for the role in his portrayal. I've met him several times in person and he's always nothing less than 100% gracious to all of his fans.

[DonnaLangrockglobally]

It was so good to see Sixie and Peri together again. Colin and Nicola still have such amazing chemistry and it was a lot of fun revisiting them again.
Also, I admit to a few happy tears along the way.

[JavertRA]

Colin Baker looks very distinguished in this outfit. Clearly they realised he might look a tad silly in the famous coat!

[Howjo]

Had the pleasure to meet Colin couple of weeks back, funny and a genuine nice guy

[OceanbornAngel]

I wish we could have seen the 6th Doctor transform into this charming interpretation during Colin Baker's initial run.

[jbanks]

Nicola’s American accent has improved exponentially 😂

The problem with 6 era who was never the actors or the characters.
