Doctor Who
4x14 The Power of the Daleks Episode Six
A great serial. How mad it was wiped. The animation isn't perfect, but it's a reasonable stand-in.
Also watched the commentary on episode four by a selection of people involved with the Daleks in nuWho, and the roundup of short clips that survive from the original.

Showman: The Life of John Nathan-Turner (2019)

Some might just consider this a special feature on a Doctor Who Blu-ray, but it's feature-length and received some measure of praise, so I'm counting it. And it really is very good -- if you consider yourself a Whovian, it's a must-see.
