It's really strange. When i first saw Ghost Light i had no idea what it was about, i just loved the atmosphere. Now i fully understand the plot and it seems fairly straightforward, it just takes some figuring out.

It's basically about a survey ship which crash landed and everyone in the house is a result of the survey and evolution itself. From Josiah to the husks in the basement. Once you are on this train of thought and not hoping for a Sontaran invasion fleet or Doctor Who in it's typical form then it becomes one of the very best Doctor Who stories with so many secrets i learn something new each time i watch it. You don't get that from Genesis of the Daleks.
