The first two stories are great, but the last two let it down. The premise is also so close to River Song’s Diary.
Doctor Who: The Claws of Axos, 1971 – ★★½

The Diary of River Song: Series 4 – ★★★
It wasn’t the best of the River Song boxsets, but the special guest in the last story was very fun!
My Neighbor Totoro, 1988 – ★★★★
Watched on Monday April 13, 2020.
Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness, 2020 – ★★★★

Seriously considering shaving my head now, as hair is getting too long and there’s going to be no chance of going to a barbers any time soon…
It’s my birthday! But we can’t leave the house. ?
Doctor Who: The Mind of Evil, 1971 – ★½ (contains spoilers)

The worst Third Doctor episode so far. The monster was stupid, the Master was ineffectual and the Doctor was unkind.
@manton I posted a haiku on my blog and when it shared to Twitter there were no line breaks or spaces: https://twitter.com/shauny/status/1240228622440574976
How can I prevent this happening again please? ?
Animal Crossing
The wait is almost over
Let packing commence
Doctor Who: Terror of the Autons, 1971 – ★★★ (contains spoilers)
This review may contain spoilers.
Yes it’s an historic episode in that it first introduces us to The Master (although it would have been great if this was the same person as The War Chief in The Wargames), but there are a few issues with the story, the effects (green screening for a kitchen scene seemed strange), and some of the monsters (the ugly doll, killer inflatable chair & daffodils are rather strange choices). But it was very funny (although probably unintentionally) and we enjoyed watching it!
I miss Liz!
Doctor Who: Inferno, 1970 – ★★★½ (contains spoilers)
This review may contain spoilers.
I’m really enjoying watching the Third Doctor’s stories, after seeing all episodes in order so far, as the script, direction, and action is miles better than anything that came before it.
But some of these serials are just a few episodes too long, including this one. So much is repeated to drag the story on!
And the werewolf things are never explained!
Doctor Who: The Ambassadors of Death, 1970 – ★★★
The build up in the first few episodes is great and I was expecting something brilliant but it all just started to slow down and the end was a bit of an anticlimax!
