Old School Doctor Who Episodes Love Meme

[doyle]

I've run memes like this before for companions and for ships (and I'm trying to dig up links to those) and decided it might be fun to try one for all the episodes of old school Doctor Who. In the comments are threads for every story from An Unearthly Child to The TV Movie (actually, The Curse of Fatal Death, because I couldn't leave Lumley Doc out); reply to these comments with what you loved about the episode, whether it's favourite lines, moments, squee for the rubbish dinosaurs, character love, shippiness, screencap picspam, or just 'best episode ever'. No harshing others' squee, please - there are 160 serials linked, there must be some you loved... Loving on stories generally derided by fandom is positively encouraged.

For some help navigating, this wiki page has the serials in order.

If any have been missed, feel free to stick them on at the end - I've just realised The Myth Makers isn't there...

Three takes off his belt and uses it as a whip against the Master.

I... Yeah. I don't even know what to say about that.

Also, the Master saying that he doesn't want to kill the Doctor by blowing up his ship, because rocket fire at long range "lacks that personal touch".

Jo also helps the Doctor to escape by talking non-stop. I love her so much.

And the Master is reading "War of the Worlds". <3

It's the fact that he's thought to bring a book for the times when his world-domination plan's going slowly that I love...

I believe saying Jo/Three/Delgado!Master = OT3 pretty much takes care of that.

Besides what everyone else has said, I love the bit during the "let's keep talking while we try to escape" scene when the Doctor tells Jo that meeting her made his earth exile worthwhile, and the eavesdropping Master rolls his eyes and snorts.

Bitter. Ex. Boyfriends. Oh yeah.
