  The Tegan bleeping gag was hilarious.  That plus more dalek cover songs makes this the best episode yet.  I haven’t seen this season since it aired but I have a soft spot for it because I recorded the audio on tape as a kid.

  I think one thing I liked about Season 18 the most was that Baker portrayed the Doctor rather differently than he had before. Maybe it was because of his bad mood during it or maybe because he recognized the tone of the series changed, but I find that the Fourth Doctor noticeably is a lot less eccentric and over-the-top. He is more subtle, more brooding, and wiser, especially as he treats Adric as sort of an apprentice. He just seems a lot more no-nonsense and serious, which I found to be an interesting development.

  In the early '80s I was in a local Doctor Who fan club called The Keepers of Traken.  Just thought I'd mention that.

  Anthony Ainley was a top bloke. I met him at a Southampton convention and he was really funny. I was slightly in awe of meeting him and he totally put me at ease. Good times.

  Romana was the ultimate Time Lady to me. Smart, grounded, and fun, and someone I wanted to be when I grew up. <b>Sigh</b>

  Bleeping Tegan is a genius move.

  Adric&apos;s &quot;Madchester&quot; hair made him look like he could have been Ian Brown&apos;s younger autistic brother.

  The Crispy Master really came into his own in Big Finish.

  Did you know Tegan&apos;s name was actually a mistake sort of?<br>Yeah, the character name wasn&apos;t decided early on. It was literally written down as Tegan/Jovanka. Someone thought it was a first and last name, and the rest is history.
