Hollismason posted:LMAO at the Doctor threatening to kill everyone with a deadly Jelly Baby. Supposedly the script had the Doctor threatening someone with a knife but Tom Baker thought that was out of character, so he just said "Why don't I use a jelly baby? They aren't supposed to know what it is anyway."

Narsham posted:I love a good Robert Holmes story like (almost) everyone else, but he has a mixed record in this specific area. There’s some really ugly subtext that never quite goes away: The Two Doctors handles “the uplifted savage” in a pretty imperialist manner, even concluding that the savage cannot be civilized or overcome genetics. In a story where a major plot-point is identifying something genetic to Time Lords that facilitates time travel, that’s especially cringeworthy. I was watching that just yesterday and good god that message is constant, and usually coming from the Doctor. Apparently there was a deleted line in which the Doctor compares Androgums to Native Americans and Australian Aborigines. Yeah. Meanwhile, Attack of the Cybermen had a deleted line in which the Doctor sees the black stealth Cyberman and asks if it's in a minstrel show. The Sontarans in The Two Doctors have some good dialogue but they mainly just seem to stand around and you wonder why they're there. Also, the padding had to be removed from their costumes to keep the actors from dying in the Spanish heat, so they're the skinniest Sontarans you've ever seen. I was watching the Blu-ray with the info text on, and it pointed out the continuity error with Troughton's Doctor working for the Time Lords, but then it basically said that only lame obsessive fans would care about it. Seriously? You can think what you like about the error, but I hate it when one (usually very small) group of fans decides the rules on how to be a cool fan and not a lame one.

Happy birthday Peter Davison. Also happy deathday Richard Hurndall, who died 40 years ago today (yes, less than six months after The Five Doctors aired).
