Dr. Pyckle and Mr. Pryde Dr. Pyckle and Mr. Pryde Dr. Pyckle and Mr. Pryde is a 1925 silent, black-and-white comedy film, directed by Scott Pembroke and Joe Rock (also the producer). The film itself is both a spoof of the previous Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde films (e.g. "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" (1912) and "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" (1920)) and the well-famed novel by Robert Louis Stevenson "Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde." The film stars Stan Laurel as the title characters. Dr. Stanislaus Pyckle, (a play of the actor's name, Stan Laurel), successfully separates the good and evil of
Dr. Who and the Daleks in colour and in a widescreen format. The film was not intended to form part of the ongoing story-lines of the television series. Elements from the programme are used, however, such as various characters, the Daleks and a police box time machine, albeit in re-imagined forms. Dr. Who, his granddaughters Susan and Barbara, and Barbara's boyfriend Ian are accidentally transported to another planet by Dr. Who's latest invention, a time and space machine called Tardis. While exploring, the travellers see a city in the distance. They also find a small container of drugs which they take aboard Tardis. Wishing to
