Quick Whovian note...

I'm not at all fond of Colin Baker's term as the Doctor. This isn't his fault as an actor; I think that, as an actor, he made a better Doctor than, well, Matt Smith for example.

But the scripts during that period were, almost without exception, HORRIBLE. The directing, more so. And worst of all was the Executive Meddling of then series producer John Nathan-Turner. All of that together made Colin Baker's two seasons, in my opinion, the most unwatchable- and I've watched most of them at this point.

So... not a Colin Baker fan, me.

But I am slightly amused at his very, very clever Twitter handle.

Nice.

I think CB's said something before about how he really didn't like how he was told to portray the Doctor.
