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...

Four's Poet Shirt.

This story may not make much sense and its portrayal of Gallifrey is kind of out of line with The War Games/The Three Doctors, but the Poet Shirt makes everything better.

The Presidential Resignation Day ceremony. The Matrix scenes ("You were a fool, Doctor, to veenture into myy domaain"; The sequence from "I deny this reality" to "There is no escape for you", particularly the cliff face with eyes). The Doctor beating Chancellor Goth to a pulp for what he did to Jamie and Zoe. Everything to do with Castellan Spandrell.
