Silver Nemesis Phew. For a minute there I thought I would have to actually watch the blooming fing. Er ... The programme celebrates its quarter century. With an overly busy story which doesn't amount to much in the end. Though it contains my favourite Cybermoment for all that. Ahem.

The Visitation The Doctor and chums get embroiled in another set of shenanigans. Also featuring an actor that used to appear in ... something on ITV . Ahem. Reasonable enough.

Doctor Who over the years: Episode quotes Ghost Light – Part 1Ace: It's true, isn't it. This is the house I told you about. The Doctor: You were thirteen. You climbed over the wall for a dare. Ace: That's your surprise, isn't it, bringing me back here. The Doctor: Remind me what it was that you sensed when you entered this deserted house. An aura of intense evil? Ace: Don't you have things you hate? The Doctor: I can't stand burnt toast. I loathe bus stations. Terrible places, full of lost luggage and lost souls. Ace: I told you I never wanted to come back here again. The Doctor: Then there's unrequited love, and tyranny, and cruelty. Ace: Too right. The Doctor: We all have a universe of our own terrors to face. Ace: I face mine on my own terms. Ghost Light – Part 2(The Doctor tries pushing a coloured rod back into the control panel. It pops back up and more steam gushes out of a vent at the side of the glowing panel. He hangs the dish cover over the vent. Josiah steps forward.) Ace: Don't try anything. The Doctor: Oh, not a patch on the Flying Scotsman. Josiah: Nimrod! Get up, you fool. It's got to be stopped. The Doctor: Better not to move him. Ace: He fell against that thing. The Doctor: He disturbed whatever's hibernating inside. Josiah: Don't touch it! (Josiah falls to his knees.) Ace: You're scared of it too, just like the others. The Doctor: Because you know what's in there, don't you, Josiah? Josiah: There's an energy escape. I must stop it. The Doctor: Don't worry. I always leave these things to the last moment. These husks. Old cast-offs of yours, I take it? Ace: They attacked Nimrod and me. Josiah: You're insane! If the membrane is broken The Doctor: Yes? (A section of the wall lights up with a formula.) Ace: Oh, what? The Doctor: Genetic codes. Ace: DNA. (Behind their backs, Josiah reaches into a drawer in the table.) The Doctor: You've done a lot of exploring in here, haven't you, Josiah? Ace: This is a stone spaceship. The Doctor: Yes, and the real owner won't be pleased when it wakes up. (Josiah has got a gun.) Josiah: I am the real owner. The Doctor: Oh no, you're not. You're just part of the cargo. Josiah: You're so smug and self-satisfied, Doctor. The Doctor: I try. Ace: Drop it. Josiah: I'm not a simpleton. That device is a radiation detector, not a gun. (The Doctor takes it back and puts it in his pocket.) You're going to help me stabilise the energy loss, or most of southern England goes up in a firestorm. Ghost Light – Part 3(Control is wearing a Victorian dress and trying on hats in front of a dressing table mirror.) Redvers: The handsomest woman Redvers ever saw was daughter to an N'Taba chief, but she had a bone through her nose and ate her cousin for breakfast. Control: Will Control be ladylike? Want so much. Redvers: Once this hunt is over, I'll make you the finest ladylike in the Empire. (The Doctor enters.) The Doctor: Having fun, Control? Control: You! You come taking away Control's freeness. The Doctor: Control, I've come to help you and to ask you for your help. Control: No help. It's mine. You won't take it. The Doctor: No, Control, don't! (Control jumps through the window.) Come back! Bah. You won't get far! Redvers: Of course, if she was a real lady, I wouldn't be in her boudoir. The Doctor: Oh, things are getting out of control. Even I can't play this many games at once. Redvers: Then help me. Help me with my hunt. The Doctor: I haven't got time, Redvers. Redvers: But I'm hunting the rarest creature in the world. The crowned Saxe-Coburg. Look. (Redvers give the Doctor a picture of the widowed Queen Victoria.) The Doctor: Really? And who's sponsoring the expedition, Josiah Samuel Smith? Redvers: When I find it, I shall shoot it.

The Power Of Kroll A lot of fun. Barely disguised liberalism from the Marxists at the been ... what's wrong with strip mining anyhow? Metaphors be damned as the opposition are literally green ahem. Plus Leeson and Baker take the piss royally in the comm.
