The four most common words in Classic Who titles are “The” (93), “of” (57), “Daleks” (13), and “Planet” (9).
Which means Planet of the Daleks — the 68th story — is, by sheer statistical title criteria, the most Classic Who episode of Classic Who.
I hope it entertains everyone to know that I only discovered this because I was making a randomizer wheel to pick Classic Who episodes, accidentally noticed a pattern and fell down a rabbit hole.
I had originally planned to make a post like, “these were the most common words in Classic Who titles, if you combined them, you’d get the most generic fake episode tittle imaginable.” But it turned out that episode already existed. And it was Planet of the Daleks.
