redneckgaijin... last week I watched the Colin Baker Doctor Who serial, "Mark of the Rani."
I've revised sharply upward my opinion of C. Baker's Doctor. It was, surprisingly, quite a good outing...
... though, on reflection, the OTHER Doctor named Baker could have played in it with the very most minimal changes of script.
Favorite exchange (approximated):
19th CENT. INVENTOR: My word! What manner of metal are these shackles made of? I've never seen any metal like it!
DOCTOR: Yes, quite remarkable, isn't it?
19th CENT. INVENTOR: Oh aye!
DOCTOR: Now, would you mind... undoing the shackles?
The Rani herself wasn't bad, although I still feel she was overshadowed rather badly by the Master. I must watch "Time and the Rani" and compare.
Peri, on the other hand, retains her title in my book as The Most Useless Companion Ever, without even the compensation of her usual highly revealing clothing...
