Doctor Who Season 6

SPOILERS TOTAL. You've been warned.

044: The Dominators

(First watched 2024-03-15, -17, -19, -20, -22) Well, no mention of the Wheel, so abducting Zoe it is I guess. The people on this planet sure seem to very easily believe what the Doctor says. They say they're easily willing to accept facts placed before them, but they don't seem to consider many alternatives first. Some more nice 1960s effects with the weapon the Quarks use on people.

I like how the Dominators basically stop paying attention to the Doctor because he managed to convince them he was part of a stupider species on the planet.

I like Jamie, man. Stuck without any technology and just falling back on his 18th century tactics... smash a robot with a boulder! And the Doctor is immediately like "Yep, only one person on the island crazy enough to be doing that!" I do wonder if there was any pushback at the time to him talking about things like killing redcoats?

Last episode had some weird stuff. Grenades made from the contents of a first aid kit?

Copying the last lines from a transcript. Love Troughton's silliness, and he and Frazer Hines really play off of each other well, so it's no surprise they kept them together so long.

JAMIE: Doctor, come on, will ye? The whole place is going to blow up.
DOCTOR: Oh, it's quite all right, Jamie. The planet is quite safe. There's just going to be a localised volcanic eruption. It'll only affect the island.
JAMIE: Maybe so, but we happen to be on the island.
DOCTOR: Oh, my word!
