[chapel]

1) silver Nemesis
Cybermen, what can I say? They rule

2) Rememberence of the Daleks.
This and Nemesis were really stand out stories if for nothing else than showing there`s more to the doctor

3) Curse of Fenric
Very scary story. Vampires, Ancient powerful beings. Plus it fleshed out the doctor a bit more and Ace`s background as to how she ended up with the doctor

4) Battlefield
Very imaginative story. Excellent. Plus one more chance to see The Brigidier and UNIT.

5) Survival. The Master as he should be desperate to survive and ruthless

6 dragonfire
I still remember all the complaints about the end of this being too graphic and gorey heh

Worst? Ghostlight. That one just never made and sense to me

Worst: The Happiness Patrol

[jeremiahecks]

1) Rememberance of the Daleks - no surprise here, since this is my all-time favourite story, closely followed by Blink.

2) Curse of Fenric - Stymied by the 'vampy' girls and some wooden acting in places, but Sylvester is at his absolute best here.

3) Battlefield - stymied by badly choreographed action pieces but the special effects are mainly decent, the Destroyer is MAGNIFICENT, the Brigadier is excellent and Morgaine is one of the shows better villains. The Doctor / Morgaine showdown at the end is thrilling, about burnt cinders and stuff. And I do love 'you've been playing chess, I've been playing poker... and I have an Ace up my sleeve...'

4) Dragonfire - Cheesy but fun.

5) Silver Nemesis - I like Pienforte and I like the jazz bits, brief though they are. The Cybermen are rubbish here but I like the manipulative Doctor and the whole thing with Pienforte and how he calls her bluff.

6) Survival - I like the Master in this story, and the scripting is superb, but the bike sequence is actually embarrassing - a nadir of Who - Midge is annoying unconvincing and hammy, and the Cheetah People... sigh.

The worst by far is Paradise Towers.

-Jeremiah Ecks,
who also personally can't stand Ghost Light's script, but it has amazing sets, Sylvester and Sophie are, well, ace and the atmosphere is heavily superb. Doesn't mean the script ain't pure tosh tho'.
