They’ve landed in a spaceship, complete with sleeping astronauts. The “evil” Sensorites of the Sense Sphere are keeping them there. But WHY?

Ian, Barbara, Susan, and The Doctor land in South America at the height of Aztec culture. They emerge from a one-way door – leaving the TARDIS behind it – in a temple, which only reincarnated gods can use. Barbara, particularly, is treated as the incarnation of the goddess Ytaxa. This works fine until her 1960’s sensibilites get involved and she tries to stop human sacrifice. Meanwhile, the Doctor absent-mindely gets engaged to a local wise woman (they are a lovely couple!). They all scheme to get back to the TARDIS.
Original air date February through April 1964.
This is one of the lost episodes. For some reason, the sound was saved separately, and fans have made various reconstructions.

Original air date November 1988.
This was the 25th anniversary episode of Doctor Who. It had Ace and the 7th Doctor, Sylvest McCoy. I’d never seen either of them before. I saw it at Westercon on a panel where they covered it like Mystery Science Theatre 3000. It deserved that treatment.
Doctor Who being cancelled should be no surprise after things like this. More when I get to it.
Original air dates December 1963 through February 1964.
The second story is long, and has Doctor Who’s foe, the Daleks in it.
Original air dates November, December 1963.
The very first episode of Doctor Who starts with little explanation of the weird title sequence and sci-fi electronic music. All that fades away to an ordinary high school.
I had an itch lately to watch some Doctor Who, and decided to watch as much of it as I can, in order.
This started with my realizing Ihad never seen a full story with Hartnell or Troughton as the Doctor, and reading a review of a much improved release of a Pertwee story,
