Which is Pertwee’s best story? This might be a fairly obvious choice, but I’m going for Inferno. Possibly the most atmospheric story in Who history.

The Delian Mode is a seriously atmospheric piece. I’ve since checked out some of Derbyshire’s other early works- this is also creepy as all hell:

Inferno, The Daemons or Frontier In Space for me. Mostly Inferno.

Ambassadors of Death.
I enjoy all of season 7.

I don't think it's the best story of the era, but it's probably Pertwee and Delgado's best performance together. The chemistry in the lab scene is fucking fantastic.
I'm going for The Dæmons.

Good call.
I have trouble picking an outright favourite. It could easily have been Planet of the Spiders, Spearhead From Space, or Planet of the Daleks.
I like lots of Pertwee stories that nobody else likes.

Inferno, Day of the Daleks, the Silurians, Frontier in Space, Terror of the Autons, and The Time Warrior are all candidatess for the best of the Pertwee era, but Inferno might just top the others.

Bloody well all of 'em!
Ok, I do have some faves like Spearhead, Silurians, Ambassadors, Inferno (dammit that's all of season 7 already!) and ok there's some standout stories that perhaps better epitomise the Pertwee era like Dæmons, Three Doctors or Planet of the Spiders. But I honestly do believe this era stands out as one of the best - and most consistently the best - in all of TruWho and there's no reversing the polarity with that!
