Similar to Sylvester McCoy, I believe he was a victim of naff storylines and bad direction/editing.
There should be poll for worst story: I think Twin Dilemma would win it by a large margin!

I don`t know, Vengence on Varos comes close along with mindwarp. I mean its hard to beat midgets in slug suits and brain transplants. Shame, looking back I like Colin Baker, but the stories he got dumped with sucked

The Two Doctors was the stand out for me simply because it had the Second Doctor in it!

Mine is 'Varos,' though 'Two Doctors' comes awfully close as well.

Hard to made a choice, there's really no oustanding stories in the lot.
It's strange, because Colin Baker is one of my favorite Doctors. Probably because I prefer him in audio form rather than on tv.

I have to say I'm a tremendous fan of Colins, not so much from the actual TV stories, but from his stellar work in the BF audio stories. When freed from the JNT strictures (costume, story selection, etc) he really soars as the Doctor. With more of his "era" being produced, he'll probably end up with enough stories to equal 8 or 9 seasons----pretty good, but I wish his actual TV episodes were more than the handful we actually got.

The Two Doctors is a bundle of joy for what it was...and what it was wasn't necessarily better or worse than any other Colin Baker story...but it had Pat Troughton in it!!!
Colin Baker gets hurt by the absolute brilliance of the Big Finish stories, unfortunately, because you see how totally awesom-tastic he could have been.
And you don't have to look at Mel.
On the other hand, you are unable to look at Peri.

Am I the only person who actually likes The Twin Dilemma or something. It's my favourite Sixth Doctor adventure, just above Revelation Of The Daleks and The Trial Of A Timelord.

Attack of the Cybermen for me.
"I don't think I misjudged anybody so bad, as I misjudged Lytton." Great line.

My favourite Colin story was The Twin Dilemma, simply because he was such a great unpredictable Doctor in it. We never quite saw that version of him again. Best actual STORY though would be Vengeance On Varos. I think that's aged pretty well. (it's a much better tale of reality TV than Bad Wolf was, as far more subtlety)

My favourite 6th Doctor story? 'Revelation of the Daleks' of course. Dark but yet imaginative. Also it has Daleks in so that's mainly why. Don't like 'The Twin Dilemma' much though, SHUDDER!

I don't get what the big Twin Dilemma problem is with you people. It's fun and lively, just because it has obvious faults that doesn't stop me enjoying it.

The Two Doctors was the stand out for me simply because it had the Second Doctor in it! And it has a nice fun momentum to it, which keeps you hooked. Definately my favourite of Colin Baker's run.

You like it, fair enough, it's just that I don't. However I still think it's better than 'Timelash' and 'The Twin Dilemma', the former being boring and the latter being utterly frivolous in my opinion. I think 'The Two Doctors' is badly written. This is the moment when Robert Holmes slipped up badly I think. It may have been a little bit better in my books had the Sontarans been given a wide berth. Robert Holmes didn't want them in, neither do I.
