The Doctor Who Thread

The Doctor (Jon Pertwee) says farewell to Taron (Bernard Horsfall) in Planet of the Daleks (1973)

Doctor Who: Timelash.

A time corridor called Timelash has been set up on the planet Karfel, punishing the people on the planet who go through it into Earth's early history. The TARDIS is caught in the beam and the Doctor and Peri discover a society of advanced technology it shouldn't have and ruled by a ruthless dictator.

This started off a bit slow and dull and some people really trying to over act especially Paul Darrow trying to be a noble English man in space, but the second episode was a bit more exciting as to who Herbert is and a few nods to his stories and dumping the Borad in 12th Centuary Scotland that may be seen frequently, nice little homage to the Loch Ness Monster especially with the make up department making him look like a lizard.

Timelash isn't one of the fondly remembered stories. Sitting between the two stories it does it seems like the cheapie designed to fill a slot after the The Two Doctors trip to Spain and what's to come on the planet Necros.

Revelation Of The Daleks was a enjoyable story and Trial Of The Timelord to me was a great outing for Colin Baker to finish of his Tenure as The Doctor, I watched them both last year so I won't be watching them anytime soon, thanks to all for putting up with my comments on the Colin Baker era.
