I wish they had more of these moments in the rebooted series, where the Doctor isn't running around and talking at 100 miles an hour. A scene where the Doctor and companion are just hanging out in the TARDIS, where nothing is at stake.
I would have just loved to see Patrick Troughton pop out of the console like he did in the 3 Doctors and thank Sarah Jane for finding his recorder, play a few bars, then pop right out again.
This console room perfectly fits Tom Baker's incarnation of the character. Wish they'd used it longer than they did. It also features one of my all-time favourite scenes, in which the Doctor uses a few boxes to explain to Leela how the TARDIS is bigger on the inside.
A recorder, from the second Doctor[Troughton], and a fluffy, Carnaby Street shirt, compliments of the third Doctor[Pertwee]. Evidently both were in the secondary control room at one point. Exploring the TARDIS would be a good activity for the current occupants.
Loved the "Second control room" with it's steampunkish feel. and its mysterious, archaic designs in the panels. Gives the feeling that the TARDIS is a very old machine build by a powerful race of beings. Which of course it is! :-).
For those complaining about the space effects and how it’s just water with balls in it, you MUST remember. No one was watching this on a backlit cellphone 5 inches from their face. They were watching it on fuzzy, grainy, small tube TV’s 12 feet away from them.
Out of all the classic Doctor's, Tom Baker is my favourite. The new series is how I discovered doctor who but 10 and 4 are what made me love the series as a whole. 4 and Sarah Jane have such good chemistry they're like bickering siblings or an old married couple at times. Also that scarf. That scarf is perfection incarnate.
I liked the way they gave a nod to the second Doctor with the recorder. Goes to show you they had Easter eggs even way back then.
Two minutes and fifteen seconds. That's all it took for me to understand why Sarah Jane and 4th Doctor are so very popular with the Classic Who fans.
I love how we used to see all the TARDIS corridors and different rooms. It makes it seem much more like a home and it's more realistic.

I love how you can hear the grin when the Doctor says "Ive seen bigger boot cupboards" even though he is off camera.

Despite its simplicity, this is probably one of the best console rooms in all of Classic Who. It's just so atmospheric

I always liked the second control room. It just cries out Jules Verne.

I've never seen someone be so proud AND accepting of being short
That's what you need, a sturdy shaving mirror that doesn't fall over when the Tardis lurches around. 👍

As a Kid I use to LOVE it when the doctor explored the TARDIS
