Terror of the Autons comes after Inferno...I think I may put off going to that Four episode until after that. I wanna see Classic Master.

[Nationstatelandsville]

Not at all, really.

Peri spends most of her time getting insulted and stubbornly trying to get the Doctor to do something other than insult her.

Though she may look it, because the BBC costume department bought 75% of the 80's cocaine, she's more than your standard window dressing. All the companions are, really.

Ah, thanks for the tip. So it's the Doctor, not her?
Also, just watched some Fourth Doctor prank calls; they're quite hilarious.

It's neither of them.

You need to see more of Six to get it.

How are you liking Three so far in general?

Three is awesome for a living, breathing human being.

Jon Pertwee got bored with drop-kicking Nazis and sipping martinis, so he became a Time Lord.

You may think Nat is pulling his usual shtick of exaggerating in a silly manner in order to make things more awesome than they really are.

He's not.

Pertwee actually was basically James Bond.

Guest starring Ian fucking Fleming and Winston goddamn Churchill.

Pertwee was an officer in the Royal Navy, spending some time attached to the highly-secretive Naval Intelligence Division during the Second World War, working alongside James Bond author Ian Fleming and reporting directly to Prime Minister Winston Churchill. In a 1994 interview (not published until 2013) he said "I did all sorts. Teaching commandos how to use escapology equipment, compasses in brass buttons, secret maps in white cotton handkerchiefs, pipes you could smoke that also fired a .22 bullet. All sorts of incredible things."[4] He was a crew member of HMS Hood and was transferred off the ship for officer training shortly before she was sunk by the German battleship Bismarck, losing all but three men. During his time in the navy Pertwee woke up one morning after a drunken night out while in port to find a tattoo of a cobra on his right arm.

And to think we Americans kiss Elvis's ass just cause he joined the military. He didn't do nothing that awesome.

From memory, weren't the three survivors of Hood the youngest, the oldest, and the median age crew members?

Let's make this clear - the Third Doctor is hit with a massive dose of radiation; we're talking galactic scale. This shit would make David Tennant turn into the fucking Hulk in a goddamn second. This is the second time he's been hit with this shit.

He spends three weeks shitting around in the TARDIS before crashing back to Earth and dying. Why? Because he didn't want to make his friend cry.

This serial format was not made for someone as easily distracted as me. I should have finished Inferno like, an hour ago. But I keep getting sidetracked.

To be fair, the PRC is exactly the kind of state the Doctor would delight in dismantling.

I do rather like this classic series Master. More sinister evil genius, and not a bouncing clown who likes pop music.
