"When you travel around as much as I do, it's almost inevitable that you'll run into yourself at some point. Come on.", The Sixth Doctor, "The Two Doctors" I do like multi-Doctor stories. "I've come a long way for you!", "Naturally. Don't expect any thanks.", The Sixth and Second Doctors, "The Two Doctors" But there was far too little time for interactions between the two Doctors in this one. On the other hand, I really liked the fact that Jamie was teamed with the Sixth Doctor so much because I love Jamie too. And when the Sixth Doctor and Jamie were initially attempting to rescue the Second Doctor tied to the wheelchair, I was reminded of David in "The End of Time - Part Two" - Worst rescue ever!" And as you would expect Colin and Frazer pranked Patrick by pushing him around when he was tied up in his wheelchair. "I want you to turn this Time Lord into an Androgum. You could do that, I know.", Chessene, "The Two Doctors" I used to think this was a bit weird - but later we saw some tech that turned Ten into a human, so perhaps it's not so weird. "Set the craft to self-destruct. I intend to leave no one alive here.", Stike, "The Two Doctors" Oh, my gosh! The Sontarans look SO hot on location! "Quail pate, I think, Shockeye, followed by a bisque de crevettes. Hmm? I know an eating house.", The Second Doctor, "The Two Doctors" The Second Doctor and Shockeye walking down the lane is the most memorable scene for me in this episode - I adore Patrick playing the Doctor - even an Androgum Doctor. "I'm afraid the nouvelle cuisine has not yet penetrated this establishment.", Oscar, "The Two Doctors" And, of course, the restaurant the Second Doctor and Shockeye select had to be the one where Oscar is working - how tragic. "No one will ever see my definitive Hamlet now.", Oscar, "The Two Doctors" Good night, sweet prince. "A Stattenheim remote control? Where did you get that? I've always wanted one of those.", "Some of us have earned these little privileges.", The Sixth and Second Doctors, "The Two Doctors" We first heard of a Stattenheim remote control when the Sixth Doctor noticed the Rani had one. "I hope you die - a lot!", sesskasays about Shockeye, Reaction to "The Two Doctors" Do you have any Androgum blood in you? This has got to be one of the most violent stories we've seen in Classic Who - Anita is the only non-TARDIS character to survive.

As I suspected!! As a true and loyal fan of Classic Who, coupled with a sparkling intellect and prematurely-aged wisdom, Sesskasays fully endorsed, supported and applauded the Sixth Doctor as he murdered Shockeye - and rightly so! I already knew she was not one of those pathetic fans who are appalled by such a vicious villains dispatch.m, but it was wonderful to watch her confirm my assumption with such gusto!!! Often cited as 'callous' or 'wicked' for this action by such imbeciles, they have constantly tried to tarnish the Sixth Doctors' persona for this and other, invented scenarios (pushed into an acid bath??!!! PUSHED?!!! Please visit SpecSavers, then re-watch), and it is wondrous to witness instinctively champion Six and display her already hardened loyalty this incarnation.

It is a good way to put it, what you said of how the story kept you stunned. Lovely that you adored seeing Two and Jamie again. I hear you on you could have used more of that. Likewise, you would have liked to have seen more of the two Doctors together. What we get is good, so it’s not much of a criticism. Your impulse to name this the best Sixth Doctor story ever given the Two and Jamie of it all, I understand given the love for Two and Jamie. Everything else, yeah, it’s not bad, it just does kind of hang on the wall like fancy spaghetti. (“It’s not spaghetti, it’s linguini.”) As someone who is, as you well know, a massive villains guy, I concur that the villains here are decent, just not all that memorable, though there outfits are. Speaking of fashion, I like Six’s waistcoat a lot. Say what you will about his coat, Six does have a very lovely waistcoat. I also don’t argue with you on finding Shockeye a repugnant and pugnacious individual. He’s supposed to be unpleasant, but he’s not interesting unpleasant, nor a villainously fun unpleasant like for example, Betelgeuse, he’s just unpleasant. And given your passion for cooking, he does present a distinct perversion of, for want of a better term, your love language, as you described. You’re taking that kind of personally, and I live for that, Jess. Two is me when he was waking up, overhearing the diabolical plans the villains had for him and how his expression morphed into a perfect “Oh, HELL NO!!” look on his face. Love your own laugh at that part. Horrifying to see Two become an Androgum, superb acting from Patrick though it was. Tis sweet how Jamie was all, “That’s MY bestie!!” upon seeing Two and Shockeye bantering about delicious dishes such as some nice, tasty Shepherd’s Pie peppered with actual shepherd on top. Those hats though. Dread creeped up when they went to eat, and I said, “Why do I get the feeling that any dinner scenes here will be Mr. Creosote level disgusting?” It starts to affect Six leading him to want to butcher innocent animals, eliciting a wonderful reaction from you. Me, I said, “Wait, first you strangled the fuck out of Peri, now you’re endorsing the cooking of cats, and from the sound of it, you want to eat dogs!? Jesus Christ, no wonder you’re the lowest ranked Doctor!!” (That was a joke, by the way.) We had shared reactions to Oscar’s death. Talk about a part that makes me say, “Oh. Well, that broke my heart a little bit.” Thankfully, Two snaps out of it. Two is rightly offended by the question of can he walk. Of course, he can walk. He’s not Lindy Pepper Bean or any of the other racist moron fucks of Finetime after all. Adore your concern for Jamie and Peri. A big highlight is seeing your reaction to Shockeye receiving his just desserts. Makes a man go all Ian McDiarmid by cackling and encouraging you, “Gooooood! Your hate has made you POWERFUL.” We both derived satisfaction from Shockeye’s death. The other villains went down easily. A bittersweet farewell when we say goodbye to Two. God bless that man. Love Peri’s confusion over the TARDIS. There was at one point four of the same Delorean in 1955, so it’s possible. We both had a reaction to Six saying that he preferred Two as an Androgum, you said, “I didn’t. If you didn’t pick up on that.”, me, I said, “See, now you’re trying to be hurtful, Six.” Then the ham-handed line about converting to vegetarianism. You’d agree with adhering to the vegetarian diet for a while. Not me. Bacon tastes good. Pork chops taste good. Unfortunately, we’re in Lent at the moment and it’s Friday, so I can’t have any meat today, despite how badly I am craving it. Alas. Of course, it doesn’t stick for the Doctor as we saw Nine eating meat. Plus, Eleven favored his fish fingers with the custard, indicating he’s not adhering to a vegan diet. Not to mention that Twelve is most CERTAINLY a man who enjoys a damn fine steak. Thirteen may have switched back to it. Ncuti’s Doctor, I could see cases either way. As to fan reception, I’m curious how it’ll go on youtube, though I doubt it’ll be anywhere near as troubling as the Talons of Weng-Cheng situation, still proud and grateful to everyone who stood by you here on patreon with that one, and I am proud of everything you said in those reactions. Here, come what may with the fan reception on youtube, these reactions were lovely and much appreciated, Jess, thank you.
