My fav Doctor.
Colin looks so youthful in his brief post regeneration scene
The strangling of Peri set the tone for her singularly unpleasant experience as a companion.
Please…..a 3 second grab and you still go on about it decades later! If the Doctor had done it whilst fully stabilised and not suffering from post regenerative trauma, I’d agree with you…..but he didnt.
The First Doctor however was fully sane and well when deliberating to kill a wounded caveman……but yoh say nothing about that….. far more egregious act.
My favourite Dr Who 😊
Colin Baker was let down by poor writers, a BBC Director General who despised the programme and hated him. His costume was rubbish but, if he had been treated appropriately, Colin Baker would have made an outstanding doctor.
The worst incarnation but only because he was written poorly.
Bollocks!! He was the best incarnation and easily the most interesting and amusing.
perry is such a sweet companion, i can see her work with 8, 10, or 11th
and for 6th, i can see only clara smart enough to return the jab 6th throw
Before he became Doctor #6,
He was injured, trashed and dirty,
His body was so damaged during this episode he had only one chance, one thing left to do,
Regenerate!
And what happened to his former personality was completely different than any of the other times he went through his changes.
Yeah,
Id have to say, this was the most dramatic out of all of his regenerations by comparison.
What was the last words said just before he changed?
Yeah,
Feels different this time…
Lucky to survived this one!
