I highly recommend Troughton's Cyberstory The Invasion then...animated by Cosgrove Hall!!

Well I finally got Terror of the Zygons

When I saw it on video back in 2012 (the last video I watched before my player broke), I thought it was the best episode ever.

2 years later and it still is my favourite. Its got everything. The best Tardis team (Tom, Liz and Ian), BRILLIANT looking monsters (well the Zygons at least lol), UNIT, The Brigadier, Sargent Benton, an eerie atmosphere, good locations, creepy music, action... Season 13 is just a Season full of 10/10's (with the possible exception of The Android Invasion, need to re-watch it though).

My season 13 scores.

Terror of the Zygons - 9
Planet of Evil - 5
Pyramids of Mars - 8
The Android Invasion - 7
The Brain of Morbius - 9
The Seeds of Doom - 8

As a comparison. My scores for season 33.

Asylum of the Daleks - 9
Dinosaurs on a Spaceship - 5
A Town Called Mercy - 5
The Power of Three - 5
The Angels Take Manhattan - 7
The Snowmen - 6
The Bells of Saint John - 8
The Rings of Akhaten - 3
Cold War - 7
Hide - 5
Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS - 2
The Crimson Horror - 7
Nightmare in Silver - 3
The Name of the Doctor - 8

In conclusion although Planet of Evil isn't a favourite of mine, only 6 stories from the last season were better than it.

I'd give The Snowmen a 10 but tbh, its the only 10 i'd give with an episode involving Matt as the only Doctor... There is the Anniversary which I love but thats got past Doctors David and Tom in it.

Wow! Thought Dark Water was superb.

Despite the fact it was obvious the skeletons were Cybermen, Moffat's writing kept building their entrance up and by the time they appeared i had shivers down my spine. Just as with The Stolen Earth and Army of Ghosts. Brilliant concept of death as well.

I had reservations if Missy was the Master but it was played so well i was fine with it.

Okay I loved that... Still not sure of how I feel with The Master apparently regenerating into the opposite sex but we'll see how they develop it next week.

Michelle Gomez was terrific - manic smile and three inches of make up.

In The Doctors Wife, the Doctor mentioned a Timelord friend who had a box who kept changing genders, or something on those lines.

For me it was the best of Moffat, the best of RT-D with some classic Who thrown in.

I just hope Moffat doesn't screw up the ending like Russell always used to do.
