There are certain Doctor Who stories that pretty much everybody is united in hating. "Underworld"; "The Long Game"; anything by Pip and Jane Baker. Most of the others have their fans and their detractors in fairly equal measure; but some, everybody just hates. One of these is "Time-Flight" - and I have to confess that I've always rather liked it. It's rubbish, let's be quite clear on that. Bits of it make no sense at all, and some of the dialogue is just plain awful - but it's entertaining rubbish. And now I haz it on shiny DVD, which is good. For starters, Peter Davison adventures on DVD mean Peter Davison audio commentaries, which are always entertaining - though boy has Janet Fielding got her bitchy hat on for this one. I usually find her snarking funny, but in this case she needs to be told to shut up. Maybe she's just annoyed because Tegan got left behind at the end of this story, and Five and Nyssa went off to have lots of adventures on their own. ;)

Low budget fun this way )
