The Doctor Who thread


Recommended Posts

I'm really getting into my classic 4th Doctor Who right now. I can download the series straight to my ipod touch and they're pretty cheap, so I've been splashing out a little. I'd previously got Pyramids of Mars and The Deadly Assassin, and this morning I picked up Ark in Space and The Sontaran Experiment, both of which lead into my favourite Who story, Genesis of the Daleks. I wish the available library was more comprehensive, but still, its cool that they're there.

Wish there were more classic who villain stories though, no Daleks or Cybermen to be found at all.

edit: The Sontaran Experiment is rendered hilarious by the fact that all the astronauts speak in a weird scottish/aussie hybrid language.

Really though, whose favorite Doctor Who story isn't Genesis of The Daleks?

Only real competition for me is Blink. Of course, The Talons of Weng-Chiang has its fans.

But no, Genesis of the Daleks is pretty much the best thing ever in Who. Looking forward to that Bigger on the Inside review immensely.

Is that the one with the comedy racism?

As opposed to the character you play around here? :P

I exaggerate my own nationality, which isn't *quite* the same. :headbonk:

How do people rank the episodes of this season then?

eh, it's good, but i'm not sure it would make my top 5. I'd put "The War Games" "Kinda" "Caves of Androzani" "Robot's of Death" and "Remembrance of the Daleks" above it (although my fave stories changes all the time depending on my mood).
