Cult Labs - The Doctor Who Thread

Some of your scoring seems a bit high. Robot is never a ten. I thought you were taking the piss giving Revenge a ten. :lol:

Image of the Fendahl is brilliant.

I wouldn't give any story ten personally.

Revenge was one I grew up with. Don't know if that's why like it as much.

Robot I really do like. Sure it wasn't a good start for Harry, but apart from that, It was good.

Maybe I need to give Fendahl a re-watch... It was years ago after all.

A fairly average season to be honest. I love The Ribos Operation, but every story after it is weak. The Stones of Blood is superb for two episodes then turns into a mess of a sci fi tale.

Not bad if you can follow it. The first story of this trilogy The Keeper of Traken is far better though.

Thanks!

My earliest memories of Who watching were the original airings of The Brain of Morbius onwards.

Fendahl is possibly the finest Gothic horror the show made along with Horror of Fang Rock.

Fendahl: I second Dem, a true masterpiece of gothic horror and a personal faveroute of mine. A re-watch is highly advised. :)

Robots of Death: Ashamed to say I have yet to actualy watch this also.:o

Key to Time: Ribos- Meh. Pirate Planet- Flash Gordon awsome sauce. Stones- As Dem said. Tara- Meh. Kroll- zzzz. Factor- Great! :)

Logopolis- Not the best way T. Baker could have left the show.:(

:lol: I like Androids of Tara, after Ribos its easily the best one of the series. I found The Armageddon Factor to be about four episodes too long.

I'd rate them:

The Pirate Planet
The Armageddon Factor
The Ribos Operation/ Androids of Tara
The Stones of Blood
The Power of Kroll

Just half way through The Key 2 Time as well. How lucky, I have an excuse to hit my LE box set of the original saga now.:pop2:

TAIS - just go with it cough.
ROD - great, creepy "villians" etc
Key....It's Mary Tamm as Romana. Enough said. ENOUGH. And Hawk? ssshhh, Ribos has Iain Cuthbertson and Julian Glover. AND I love Kroll (the comm is excellent btw Goth) for it's OB scenes alone.
Logopolis - the ending does seem rushed now personally.

Hey! Remember in 2011 when they found the Underwater Menace part 2? And the fact that it STILL hasn't had a release? Well... Here it is! And I have to say, what a GREAT episode! Doctor Who - 0405 - The Underwater Menace (Part 2) - Video Dailymotion

I only want to watch an official release in context with the rest of the story.

The Underwater Menace would have been the last on my list to find anything more of to be honest.

Still its better than nothing.
