For once this gets a 5/5 for me. It was absolutely excellent , a brilliantly scripted depiction of the pack mentality in action . Those people, when faced with a crisis, mostly acted dreadfully and very true to life. I like the way that even some of the more thoughtful ones like Jethro & David Troughton's character turned selfish and followed the crowd eventually. It was better that we didn't learn much about the alien. This was brilliant writing from RTD - more like this earlier would have been welcome. Loved it.
Pity you've spent the last four years proving you couldn't do anything as good if your life depended on it, then, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteYou must have seen the latest flight of fancy from Sparacus. In the DWF's K9 Tales thread, where everyone's wondering about what the "bonus item" will be that everyone who sends their faulty Invisible Enemy disc back will get, Spara is hoping for... wait for it, either a free Torchwood Season 2 set or a free Brain Of Morbius DVD.
ReplyDeleteDream on, pal. Get a fecking grip. I'm worried about the kids being taught by this clown.
What? No chance. Maybe a copy of K9 Unleashed at best. How much would a boxset cost? How much did K9 Tales cost?
ReplyDeleteWake up, you bloody nutter...
Well, I paid £15 for K9 Tales. Assuming Spara did the same, that means he's expecting to receive either a £40 box-set (Torchwood) or a £13 DVD (Morbius) totally GRATIS along with his replacement Invisible Enemy disc worth £7.50.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure he says these things publicly because he gets off on the ridicule somehow...
Yes, well, it's more endearing than certain yellow sticky fluids I could mention...
ReplyDeleteWhen's the full Season 4 poll coming, Spara, me old goat?...
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's what I love about this plot. It's right here, right now, up-to-the-minute, on-the-pulse and riding the cultural zietgiest!
ReplyDeleteJust, you know, hasn't been updated for a month. Still, the blogger in question hasn't been updated since 1973...
Spara, you're a lazy bastard.
ReplyDeleteLucky old CSFC!
Lucky old what?!

ReplyDeleteDon't mention the CSFC. I mentioned it once, but I think I got away with it... ;-)
ReplyDelete*snorts awake*
ReplyDeleteHuh? Whu? Wazzat?
Dear God, you think Spara would actually bother to update this blog in the wake of LoverofBenChathamgate. LBCgate, geddit? Oh, please yourself.
*slumps unconscious once more.*
LBCgate? I'm intrigued, pray tell...
ReplyDeleteYeah, well, that's the price paid for throwing yourself out of the loop, LH. Meantime, my life has taken a distinctive turn of the worse, so I'm throwing the towel in and getting out. I'll let this blog gather dust and help fight the internet war on BC...
