DWAZ #70 – "THE WAR GAMES IN COLOUR”
"The War Games” – the final story of the Second Doctor era from 1969 – has now been released in a drastically altered format, with a new colourisation, new special effects, new CGI, a new score, and a severe new edit! But more than that, this version makes significant character and narrative changes as well. It’s been a controversial release to say the least ... and we have a wide range of reactions to it!

What did you think of “The War Games in Colour”?? We'd love to hear from you! If you've enjoyed the show, please leave a comment, review, or rating wherever you're listening! If there's a particular story or topic you'd like to hear us discuss, please let us know at [email protected]!
