If you want hard evidence that the UNIT era — when Jon Pertwee’s Doctor was exiled to Earth after being put on trial by the Time Lords — was set in the “near future,” look no further than The Ambassadors of Death. With routine missions to Mars, nuclear fuel available in factories on the British countryside, and space capsules that can land on solid ground no less, this is a version of the future that the 20th century never delivered on, and much of the advances are still stubbornly out of reach. That doesn’t mean Ambassadors fails, of course. On the contrary, by putting its ’60s spy movie plot in a backdrop “the day after tomorrow,” you get the thrills of an action yarn with all the more reason to comfortably suspend your disbelief. For a few episodes, anyway.

Commentary for The Ambassadors of Death begins at 28:33.
