All right, voting is over. Three total votes, wow. We really do need more members.
Anyway, The Caves of Androzani. Peter Davison's last (so to speak) serial. Discuss.

Discussing: Was I the only one that was very much disturbed by Jek's flirting with Peri?
And kind of sort of related: Why does Six seem to be so unpopular when I (because my opinion is so completely Law, yes?) think that he is made of Win?

Six is made out of win. Unfortunately his scripts were made out of puke. It kind of puts a damper on the love affair. And the coat, but that is charming in its own way.
I want to hear some of his audios since I've heard there better than the tripe he was given to work with the in te show -
Anyway, back on topic. Jek's flirting was incredibly creepy. And I felt so bad for poor Fivey. So much for everybody lives...
I so hyper happy when I realised this episode had escaped the youtube massacres. yeah!

I've got it on DVD and I absolutely love the commentaries. I feel slightly kind of not really bad for hating Peri so much, since Nicola Bryant actually seems like a really nice person. She got frost bite and pneumonia 'cos they made her run around half-naked in freezing weather.
(which kind of reminds me that 42 was filmed in January (or some similar month) and everyone was really freezing when they were supposed to be falling into the sun. But returning to the topic.)

I've just finished watching part 2 and let me just say that this is the creepiest Who story I've seen yet. Very, very good, but creepy. And yeah, Jek's flirting definitely added to the creepiness.

The ending is a shade different from The Doctor Dances.

I've had difficulty coming to grips with Androzani. I like the tone of it, and Holmes is my favorite, but it's widely thought of as best DW story and I don't quite see what others are seeing.

I don't see it as the best (that's actually quite controversial and I could never decide on one, anyway), but I still enjoyed it and thought it was a good serial; better than some but not necessarily the best.
