The Aztecs

Aztecs (episode 1)
The Temple of Evil


 

There's the TARDIS toy taking off again.

And suddenly, a death mask! And the words "Written by John Lucarotti" which suggest high promise. The TARDIS has landed in a tomb which Barbara immediately recognises as an Aztec priest. They've landed in the time period of Barbara's favourite school subject! Although if the chap was buried in 1430 it's a bit late in the day to be "early Aztec".

Jurassic Park (1993)

Jurassic Park (1993)


So, yeah, imagine being six years old in 1992. Dinosaurs Magazine is out in the shops weekly, and you read about the Drinker-Cope and the Bone Wars. You've seen King Kong and the stopmotion dinosaurs of that and much underrated Valley of Gwanji. You have dinosaur toys and Dinotopia and much like the rest of your class and every child that age you are mad about dinosaurs.
