Have watched Keeper of Traken
Was struck by sudden and overwhelming urge to knit. Not just a 'hmmm, I used to knit, I could do that again', oh no. More like 'must knit now! fate of universe depends on it!'
*sigh*
well at least it isn't doorhandles again. Cleaning doorhandles at one in the morning gets very tedious.
At least this way I'll end up with... well, a somewhat shapeless and messy bit of white knitting, since I seem to only have white and blue left, and the blue has some kind of crochet project with beads in it attached. It looks quite clever. I don't remember making it, or indeed how to.
Somewhat surprised my hands remember knitting, actually. It's been years.


ANYways

Doctor Who story fun as usual. I kept getting distracted by the set decoration - all sorts of very pretty swirly art nouveau stuff going on around there. Also I like Nyssa's skirt. Pretty pointy colors skirt. The shoulders do no one any favours but the skirt is fun.

Adric vaguely worries me. Mostly I manage to ignore the Doctor's habit of picking up teenagers, but they don't usually smile at him quite like that.



onwards to the next story arc!

Why they don't usually release so many at once I don't know. Is much more fun this way.

Have now watched Logopolis.
Doctor fall down go splat.
They definitely made a Thing of that.

I quite like this one. Universe math. Master getting it very wrong. Little doll people. The Master's fashion sense. Tegan, who is only mildly annoying thus far, and has a nifty lilac uniform. Handshake with the Master.

Most interesting line is the one behind the menu - something like "He's a Time Lord. In many senses we have the same mind."

Also funny watching the regeneration sequence when he looks all like his whiteface went a bit wrong.




I have successfully stopped knitting. Yaay me.


I ate too much and now feel ooky. Unyaay me.

So I grabbed the Hub plan from the BBC and stuck lables on it, red theirs blue mine.

Where does the target shooting place stick on?
Or the cells?
Or the morgue?
... anywhere else we've seen that isn't on the map?

I think up next to the boardroom there's a sitting bit with like a patio furniture set in it.

Is the coffee place on the boardroom level or the Tosh level?

... okay, now I'm getting carried away.
I just really wondered where the other rooms could fit relative to what we've seen.

That was really rather good.

Except the costumes. Those were highly amusing instead.

But it had, like, plot twists and everything!
And did introduction for a bunch of characters at once.
And had that cool recursion thing as a Theme.

I like it when they're running around like it's an Escher painting. The FX are very much of their time but it's great anyways.

Adric makes me LOL in a I-shouldn't-see-it-that-way way. Because obviously it isn't bondage and seduction and moaning and stuff. Nope. It's entirely innocent evil mastermind stuff. Not kinky at all.

... yeah, and if I could believe that the entire era would be much less disturbing.

The Master pretty much rules. How many bad guys have their own reality?

I liked the Doctor's method of navigating in the TARDIS.
... okay, I was rewriting it in my head so it's Jack following Ten around as he strips, but that's entirely beside the point ...

I like the TARDIS. There's a lot of it in this one. Well, 25% less by the end of it, but still.

One wonders how many companions' rooms met the same fate as Romana's.


... From certain points of view, the Doctor do tend to look like a bit of a git.

The only time he mentions former companions is when he's manic / amnesiac.

... that part was funny.


The Ceremonial Acquisition Of The New Clothes was kind of fun.
Doesn't hurt that I rather like them.
... actually, the only Doctor who I look at the fashions and *blinky* is 6.
... and scarily enough I remember at the time really liking it.


This was cool. With a plot. I know I said that at the start but it do bear repeating.
... there's a recursion joke in there somewhere but it's 0633 on an all night awake and, well, it isn't in my brain much.
