  • Peladon as 1970s Britain

    Watching The Curse of Peladon now is interesting as it is basically about Britain joining the Common Market (it was made around that time) played out as the planet of Peladon joining The Federation of Planets, withe the old guard resistant to this against the king who wants to move forward. There is a whodunnit element and who the baddies are isn’t immediately evident. Patrick Troughton’s son David plays the king (and is also in the new series story Midnight with David Tennant). The analogy for The Monster of Peladon is the miners’ strikes of the 1970s, so is also political in nature and is set 50 years after the first story. Here there is more of a return to the norm in terms of the villains. These are by no means the best Pertwee stories (Curse is the better of the two), but neither are they the worst and when looked through the lens of history they have added interest (for me at least) and are well worth seeing.
