125: Earthshock
Manage episode 250498449 series 62707
We start 2020 with an ending.
Loathe him or hate him, Adric has been a big part (prat?) of 80s Who but all things must pass, however indigestible.
Yes, this is Earthshock, which packed a couple of major bombshells back in the day (not counting Beryl Reid). It’s a tale of pointless deaths, some equally pointless characters and gender fluid troopers (many of them genuinely fluid by the time the murderous mime act has finished with them).
The Doctor promotes fine dining, Tegan packs heat, Nyssa plays house and Adric ploughs into the Diplodocidae. Meanwhile, it’s all bonuses and bollockings from Beryl and her long-suffering lackey can’t even sell out his own planet properly. Luckily Scott musters more machismo in his moustache than in Ringway’s whole body but cringing Kyle goes from gung-ho to agoraphobic at the drop of a boiler suit.
So were Jim and Martin wildly cheering or weeping inconsolably by the end of it all?
