Hadoke versus HAVOC (2013)
Toby Hadoke meets the surviving members of the HAVOC stunt team that worked on Inferno and other Doctor Who stories. The four HAVOC veterans are Derek Ware (who started the team), Roy Scammell (whose specialty was falling from great heights), Derek Martin, and Stuart Fell. They worked as a group on several Third Doctor stories. Martin and Fell occasionally worked on Doctor Who as stuntmen, fight arrangers, and actors after HAVOC broke up. Hadoke talks to each man individually and then comes together with all four of them to get some pointers before he attempted a stunt himself.
There is a fair number of clips from Doctor Who episodes that the HAVOC team worked on.
Derek Ware and Roy Scammell passed away since this documentary was put together, Ware in 2015 and Scammell in 2021.
This was a fun, not too serious watch. I don't feel like I learned a lot but I also didn't feel like I was wasting my time.
