The Doctor pretending to go along with the villain's plain in such an overblown manner was great. A scene I could see showing up nearly unchanged in a Matt Smith episode. | The Doctor pretending to go along with the villain's plain in such an overblown manner was great.

Other times the Doctor's actor has had a dual role, there's usually some clear story reason. Something is copying the Doctor, or bringing out some different aspect of him, whatever. In this case it's just... some unrelated guy who happens to look a lot like him. Though given things that have been established in more recent years (the TARDIS taking the Doctor where he needs to be, the Doctor sometimes picking faces for reasons he doesn't consciously understand), today we might interpret it as the Second Doctor looking like he does because he was meant to stop Salamander. | Other times the Doctor's actor has had a dual role, there's usually some clear story reason.

I like how in this serial there's not just the weird effects on the show intro, but a different type of weird effects for the end credits, showing the web/fungus. | I like how in this serial there's not just the weird effects on the show intro, but a different type of weird effects for the end credits, showing the web/fungus. | ||

I knew Victoria was leaving, but I wondered how. I mean, they have a general lack of control of the TARDIS, so would it take the TARDIS being sympathetic for a change to get her home? But as it turns out, she wouldn't be comfortable back home anyway and just decides to stay in whatever future Earth time they'd ended up on. These early years really had companions shuffling all across history, didn't they? | I knew Victoria was leaving, but I wondered how.
