The Troughton set is tempting. I'll have to mull it over before the free postage runs out at the end of the bank holiday.

I've got all the Doctors in a set but they are still boxed. I only have Davison and the two Bakers loose from the classic series. So the others are all possible buys.

Really enjoyed The Crimson Horror.

My favourite of this run of episodes by a long way.

Bah, made your mistake Dem...Deem...feck it. I'll watch it on Iplayer in a moment after "The 7th Dimension" has finished.

Yeah, I really enjoyed it too. Looking forward to seeing Locutus, erm, I mean The Doctor, in next week's episode.

The Crimson Horror was a joy to watch. Mark Gatiss for next producer I say!

Looking forward to the revamped Cybermen next week.

I liked The Avengers in-joke.

A fun reference to Tegan as well.

The flashback footage was superbly done.

Yeah, you would think Neil Gaiman would avoid any Borg comparisons.

Deimos and The Resurection of Mars

After the radioactive fallout of Mars set down on the Ice Warriors, they fled to Deimos to sleep off the catasrophe. Things get complicated when Deimos becomes a popular tourist destination with millions flooding in yearly to see the catacombs of the Martian refugees. The 8th Doctor (Paul McGann once again providing a stunning performence) and Lucie Miller (Sheridan Smith) to bring the piece as conflict breaks out upon the Warriors awakening, determined to return to Mars.

Anymore and I would be spoiling some of the best original Who material produced in decades, spell binding in it's simplicity yet ventured in a way that make's Moffets convoluted scripting weep. Steller performences from all (especialy McGann who has really gron into one of the best incarnations of the character) and a truely memoriable script. Maybe not as ice warrior centric as the covers would have you believe, yet there still amazing pressence you can really feel. And yes, Suzi, the voice and hands are "correct".

Highly, highly reccomended.

Key 2 Time Saga and Klein Trilogy reviews coming soon.

Looks like a slight Sarah Jane Adventures style feel to the next episode.
