The exclusion of Tegan and Turlough would be criminal if their scenes didn't bond them as characters. Turloughs shiftiness is very refreshing. No need to change CGI for this story, can't remember a lot about the old effects apart from part 1, no need to change it. Love the end scene with the Black Guardian. It is best taken an episode a night. Accepting the Garm, it is a decent character and a good plot twist that he was good. You would never get away with Sarah Suttons costumes today, its so unnecessary, I remember at the time it was commented that it was for her male fans. The skirt scene in part 2 but then lying on a white floor legs akimbo (nearly) in part 4 did make me laugh. She is a little hottie, as is Tegan. Andrew Burt really shouldnt do fight scenes if he can help it. The leaving scene is very sad, Davisons obvious disappointment. I like watching him talk to Valgard but seeing Nyssa and Tegan argue in the background, very clever. Real tears from Sarah who probably did not outstay her welcome. A good storyline to write her out. Bor is a good character, very well played by Peter Benson, no one dies, how strange when you consider the same about Snakedance and the slaughterfest of stories to come in the next 2 seasons especially. I did enjoy Terminus, the music is Roger Limbs last really annoying score I think, 6 out of the last 13 stories, and people said Dudley Simpson was used too much. The best of these probably being Arc of Infinity or Traken. He just seems to be a go to for an 80s in the background keyboard no expense score, one instrument, compare it to Mawdryn Undead, enough said. I prefer this to Time Flight and Four to Doomsday, next for me is Castrovalva which just pips Terminus. 4th best so far in a consistent season.Linx D Oderanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06587578831858117637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5386390949828958591.post-30923104898633653292018-02-22T20:54:27.082-08:002018-02-22T20:54:27.082-08:00Well I watched it for entertainment, and I really ...Well I watched it for entertainment, and I really wasn't very entertained. It's not the worst 5th Doctor story, but it might have the worst science of any of them. If JNT wanted to inject more science into the show, he probably should have at least read a text book.
