(First watched 2024-11-26, -27, -29, -) So the Doctor actually got the TARDIS working by his own effort? I mean, he didn't land it where he wanted to, but he wasn't able to do that BEFORE so it's not a new problem to him. | |||
I'm not sure why they jumped out of the TARDIS when it was teetering over the edge? If they were just going to retrieve it and go back in... better to just stay in and not need retrieving? Surely the TARDIS has its own internal gravity and whatnot so falling over a cliff in it wouldn't be a problem? | I'm not sure why they jumped out of the TARDIS when it was teetering over the edge?

This planet is a bit weird. I mean, sure, the visitors refer to it as a barbarous place a few times, but... surely they're space travelers if they're in negotiations to join a galactic federation? So is a castle of stone lit by torches purely an aesthetic choice? Also the lack of security cameras? | This planet is a bit weird.

Near the end of episode 3 after the Doctor has mentioned the tunnels running below the citadel, it's thrown back at him "You're just expecting us to waste time searching for these mythical tunnels to postpone your fight to the death!" I don't understand why neither the Doctor nor Jo said "Uhh, no, we've been there several times and can take you there directly this very minute." Instead they just proceeded to the fight to the death. - | Near the end of episode 3 after the Doctor has mentioned the tunnels running below the citadel, it's thrown back at him "You're just expecting us to waste time searching for these mythical tunnels to postpone your fight to the death!"

Traitor Arcturus was a very cool-looking prop, I must say. | |||
So King Peladon was played by [[David Troughton]], son of [[Patrick Troughton]]. At this age I would not detect a big resemblance, but in his older age I can see it more. | |||
So in the end the Doctor blames this trip on the Time Lords once again manipulating him. I dunno, maybe that's the case this time, but he's never had trouble dropping into the right place at the wrong time ''without'' their interference. BUT it provides a convenient excuse for an occasional off planet trip during this Earth exile. | |||
