Silurians go boom!

I like how much room there is for everyone swapping sides in a multi part story this long. Shifting allegiances and time for absolutely everyone to screw up. Almost like moral complexity! In a U rated kids show with rubber monsters. Got to love that.

... it is also diverting to realise quite how many people look good in tight t-shirts. Unexpected.

So... did the Brigadier do genocide? I mean, as far as he knew, did he wipe out a whole non-human intelligent species? Cause that would be a rather big Thing.

I was thinking he was just sealing the caves. I mean, the Doctor said to make sure nobody got in.

Is interesting how much different episodes make different argument. I mean, you can think the Doctor is over reacting in complaining about the military approach, and then you see one you missed and *boom*.

I liked it when the Doctor did Science! With squeezy things and microscopes and everything. And then Liz figured it out from his notes.

I could watch the next story. Or, I could go sleep. It's three in the morning.

Ooooh, is that the one with Paul Darrow as Captain Hawkins? There were some lovely pictures of him filling out his uniform on the old Avoncentric site.
