Surprisingly, I didn't have this in my collection but just added this now. Pre-owned but in fantastic shape. I have been in the mood for a period drama I haven't seen before from the 1920s or early 1930s. Have you seen it? What are your thoughts? #LWT #LoveforLydia

"Get Off My Cloud" was the Series 3 finale for OUT IF THE UNKNOWN. It is a missing episode that famously has a Dalek in it. not too long before their last B&W appearance in DOCTOR WHO "The War Games" Ep. 10.
