Doctor Who: The War Machines
A hugely enjoyable Doctor Who adventure from the very infancy of the show, "The War Machines" finds William Hartnell in charge of the Tardis, and naturally enough there's an impending crisis facing the Earth. The TARDIS arrives in London in 1966 and the Doctor and his assistant Dodo visit the Post Office Tower. There they meet Professor Brett who's invented a revolutionary new computer called the WONTAN (Will Operating Thought Analogue), which is capable of independent thought. Soon enough though, in the manner of newly sentient computers everywhere, the WONTAN decides that humans are inferior and that it's time for machines to rule over them. It sets about constructing a fleet of war machines to take over the world, using its hypnotic powers. Can the Doctor reprogram them before its too late?
