Doctor Who: Watchers in the Fourth Dimension
TV & Film:TV Reviews
We kick off a brave new era as Graham Williams takes the reins of the show with the Season 15 opener, Horror of Fang Rock. This story features our only ever sighting of a Rutan – the mortal enemy of the Sontarans. It also features… rich people? Ugh. Ok, whatever, guys.
Join us as we discuss Leela’s bloodlust, Terrance Dicks’ love of the green, whether this story suffered from overspending at the end of the previous season, the absolutely terrible rich people that find their way into this story (and if they’re really necessary), and the disappointing lack of a “Best of Fang Rock” story from Big Finish! Anthony finds himself longing for the coming of the revolution, while Reilly finds himself getting very upset about some news regarding the end of the season.
