Coal Hill School occupies a magical place in Doctor Who history, ever since William
Hartnell abducted two schoolteachers back in 1963. The last time the TARDIS
landed in East London, his Seventh incarnation had a confrontation with the
Daleks and Davros that consistently ranks high amongst fans – not only for
McCoy’s run, but for the pre-2005 episodes as a whole.
Last week, we had another episode set in that venerable education establishment, and I decided to stack Remembrance of the Daleks against The Caretaker in a versus review!
