Doctor Who: Meglos, 1980 – ★½

I can’t believe they had Jacqueline Hill back but instead of casting her as Barbara again and having a wonderful reunion with The Doctor they make her a priestess. It’s like if Billy Piper returned to the show and instead of casting her as Rose she is playing someone different… oh wait, bad example ?

The story was awful, as were the special effects. Tom Baker was delightful as always though and I’m really warming up to Romana II.

Doctor Who: Destiny of the Daleks, 1979 – ★½

This review may contain spoilers.

Oh dear this is terrible - the Daleks are constantly referred to as “robots” and “computers” but they are creatures in tanks! So the whole plot doesn’t make sense. Plus Davros sounds wrong and Romana’s regeneration is insultingly bad.
