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...

Ace pwns SEVERELY in this one. And it's an anniversary which I'm a complete sucker for. Plus the Nemesis statue is a more interesting Gallifreyan WMD than the Hand of Omega.

Ok, so the villains are clearly auditioning for next season's Battlefield, but it's got Ace, blowing up a castle, or at least part of one which may or may not be supposed to be Windsor (or that could just be my lousy memory but still). There's time travel, black magic, big swords, bows and arrows, inexplicable Nazis oh and Cybermen...


Also there's Courtney Pine playing jazz...what more could anyone reasonably require?

I have a very, very fond memory of watching this for the first time as it's been MSTed at Gallifrey One XD ...Probably the best way to watch it, but it's so damn funny!
