This is four consecutive solid gold scenes in as many minutes. Genuine classic.
🤘🎥🤘
I feel like if you create a product called “Robots of Death” you should really plan for the consequences.
They did so much with such a small budget. The robot masks are a stunnign piece of design - even if you can see the Marigold symbol on the robot silver "hands" :D
Not gonna lie I wouldn't have even put it together that the symbol was the brand for washing up gloves ❤️
@@Rowan_Smith Thw wqeird thing is, surgical latex gloves would have been cheaper and more effective: no marogolds on them and they fit closely to the ands. I guess the silver paint would have caused them to disintegrate though.
That robot was programmed to kill................and then do the washing up afterwards.
@@richardgregory3684 You can see knuckles and finger joints through surgical gloves though because they fit so tightly.
Tom Baker's sign off at the end is priceless ❤
Got to admit that this was one of the great stories from that era. I was about 7 or 8 and despite it all being made out of rubber gloves and cardboard etc the robots and mining ship was quite convincing and the story very dramatic. Even watching it now the naff special effects by modern standards don’t detract from the episodes which have on DVD. If anything it just shows that before special effects went into the stratosphere they had to rely on proper acting, writing and directing to get the drama and the pulse racing. That’s timeless.
The robot designs in this are just stunning, even more when you consider how limitted the budget was. I espescially like the way that the different robot models had different colour schemes: the simplest being the D (for Dumb) class being dark green with dull silver highlights and dark tunics, the most seen model being the more complex V class (Vocs who could speak), these having green faces with brighter silver highlights and light green tunics and the sophisticated SV (Super Vocs who could co-ordinate and command other robots and apparently make complex decisions and even judgements - of which there was only one on the Sandminer) having light green face with much more silver, and glittering silver highlights plus a silver tunic.
The Robots are truly a design classic.
Especially for villainous robots. Good to know that D84 was a quite friendly robot to the end.
They scared the s… out of me as a kid.
I'm glad they decided to have them just walk around like humans without any marching, stomping or rigid machine-like movement.
The stories around this time amounted to the golden age of Doctor Who. Simply sublime.
A true classic story. One of my all-time favorites.
same here
All the more poignant in the modern day, don't you think?
David Collings always gave his 110% Shakespearean best to the role no matter WHAT it was. He particularly shone here (RIP).
He also played " Silver" in Sapphire and Steel".
0:10 don't you hate it when your robot eats all the raspberry compote when you wanted clotted cream and scones
With a few decades of hindsight, it is somewhat amazing how far ahead the writers (and many others) were with the potential risks of AI.
You know a design is great when it still wouldn't look out of place in a modern day episode!
The robot 'angels' in "Voyage of the Damned" seemed like they were riffing off this story to me. So, yeah, definitely.
@@MichaelPhillipsatGreyOwlStudio they definitely do share some similarities, I've noticed that in the past too
I always thought they also looked like the more beautiful forms of the Axons.
That’s very graphic with the blood on the Robots hand, in other words brilliant. A fabulous episode, top notch.
I think it might be good if this classic robot character, from this classic (DOCTOR WHO) series, could appear in the new version of (DOCTOR WHO) show series.
Almost every line is quotable. Thanks Chris Boucher!
I remember as a 17 year old back in December 77 watching this in colour when it was repeated on new year's eve and new year's day. I'd watched it first time round in black and white, but in colour it looked a thousand times better and I was absolutely spellbound.
This and The Ark In Space are my 2 favourite 4th Doctor stories.
Tom baker just the right amount of quirky
Kudos to the actors - it can;t have been fun under the hot studio lights in a mask, rubber gloves and quilted jackets.
Jon Pertwee And Tom Baker
The golden age of Doctor Who.
1:53 - And that grin can literally make a Dalek CRAP itself.
Gotta love this era of doctor who
Tom Baker, my Doctor, told me to subscribe, so I did.
I remember seeing this on TV when I was a kid, frighting but also left wanting to watch more, because I think the story and acting were very well done.
The robots would be a pretty awesome cosplay.
Great story, using the studio sets to create a feeling of claustrophobia, the music and effects enhancing a seemingly effortless sinister mood throughout, and making the best use of a limited budget, like all the best Doctor Who. They knew how to make strong, slow-paced, creepy DW stories back then. The only real weak point is the failure to disguise which of the characters on the sand-miner was also the villainous Taren Capel, as it's obvious who it is the first time you see the electronically-treated face on the monitor screen. Sadly, if these beautifully-designed, well-written and subtly-acted robots were brought into the current show, they'd likely be "modernised" in some way and misused in terms of character and motivation, as happens so often in 21st century DW (such as the running Cybermen, and the Ice Warrior rethink that changed what they actually were from the classic stories).
When Tom Baker says it, you better subscribe.
When I first saw this it reminded me of the impossible planet and the beast below
actually watched the dvd from beginning to end the other night, such an underestimated story this one, visually impressive (for the 70s), great cast and story. its the sunmakers tomorrow night !
Classic "classic" Who!
Those robots are genuinely scary. Loved it
Love the silver marrigold gloves low budget but a classic
Has my favorite wardrobe malfunction.
The greatest WHO story ever imo
One of the best scenes is where an altered robot attacks Leela - she throws a knife, which it brushes off - "Now you're just showing off!" and a robot hand that was detached earlier "Please do not throw hands at me"
You can't get more "Classic Doctor Who" than this. The epitomy.
Those hairstyles. So bushy.
Ah, THAT'S what's been missing in NuWho! The incidental music and audio stings. No shame on the new series, but that old set of audio cues really was the 'fingerprint' of the show back then.
Absoltely love the guy that voiced the robots
Being someone more familiar with Doctor Who after 2005, I assume these are related to the robots in Voyage of the Damned, right?
The ol' fuzz head.
Thanos brother Eros was the big bad here
!!! WARNING: FLASHING IMAGES - FOR ANYONE WITH EPILEPSY, SKIP FROM 1:05 TO 1:17 !!!
A really creative story with some fantastic writing.
Information: Kill
There was only one Dr. WHO. *Tom Backer.*
The sofas in this clip were reupholstered on a recent episode of salvage hunters the restorers. They were thought to be in Blake's 7 and logans run too.
Great Season,with this one as one of the best
D84 was great!
how did i not realize these are where the robots from voyage of the damned got thier design from
These look just like the killer robots from space titanic episode from the newer series.
Dr who use to be so theatrical, like stage actors hamming it up, where they got maximum effect for minimal outlay.
Then much later they used huge budgets and over polished performances to the point of them being far to clinical.
Thus ending up equally as unconvincing as the earlier episodes, with dialogue delivered in an almost robotic form, free from any expression
This was my Doctor!
Pls can these robots return! THEY ARE AWSOME ❤❤️➕🤖

Make Doctor Who Great Again!!!
So classic, I think a deco influence, at least on a limited budget .Is the the Blade Runner couch (in a lighter colour) ruclips.net/video/mfS6xKKbQCA/видео.html at 1.45?
Along the Whovian timeline the wonderful dramatic era shown here was substituted with the less memorable melodrama of the new era.
When AI runs wild,
Classic 77 era Who sequence. written by Chris Boucher.
I love Tom Baker! I first saw him in the Golden Voyage of Sinbad (1973), where he played Koura, the main antagonist.
I wish he would make more appearances in Motion Pictures; that would be grand!

I think Elon was watching this clip last night.
hey, l wounded if this would be good if they had brought this back The Robots of Death. seen they had brought back David Tendents and as well the other old Dr WHO.
you mean wouldnt?
@@tripsix263 yes sorry that what l meant to say sometimes at the time what l am thinking of and typing it down isn't always the same unless l go back after woods and then see that l had writing it wrong. can tell you l am not much good at spelling & l also have got a Learning disability. but l am trying still
Weren’t they also Cybermen too?
[hint] I always wished the show had returned to that world. Maybe not another sand mine, but more of that society. [/hint]
Not dramatic at the start 😂
I know this is a long time ago but the blood on the hands looks way to shiny it legitly looks and sticks like jam they should have mixed it better.
RED PAIN OR STRAWBERRY JAM YEP Kappa LUL
The real secret of the Time Lords is that Earth is a Time Machine as is the Sun but access is extremely limited to well the Time Lords. Hahaha. Want a Jelly Baby? Hahaha. All Tie Lords love watching the Brilliant Dr Who.
\m/
Tom Baker Doctor Who was at its peak at this time. Would start going downhill after this season
Were those the precursors to the CyberMen?
What would make you think this
Cybermen appeared WAY before these robots.
Finally watched this one, and sorry but found it overrated. Didn't find the robots that's scary , and plot itself is very bland , Doctor arrives and is immediately accused of something. Also title kid of gives away the mystery.
Yeah, the mystery plot and title are kinda at odds in a silly way
I love this story but I hear what you're saying and tbh 0:41 does give the villain away somewhat...
Well, it was not actually the robots that were villains tho! SPOILERS!
It was the human that reprogrammed them.
I'd rate this much higher than a lot of episodes of "new" Who, but each to their own 👍
@@FFKonoko but the mystery part of the story is that although we (the viewers) have seen the robots kill people, the crew at first don't believe it could be the robots due to their inbuilt safety features. So the mystery lies in who has reprogrammed them and why.
Of course I've seen it many many times so the mystery isn't even there anymore but it doesn't make it much less enjoyable. 👍
Scary. 😂 It's Doctor Who at BBC primetime during the 70s. Strawberry jam is about as scary as it gets.. Though later in the story there is a interrupted strangling, so ... I think you were going to dislike it before you watched it?
Oh, oh no, his hands are covered in black current jam.
