promethia_tenkI am done with the Second Doctor!*
Yes, yes, Two is lovely, but more importantly Two and a TARDIS team are lovely. I have not been this squeeful about a Team TARDIS since the Ponds. I would watch them all semi-ineptly attempt to rescue each other all day. LOOKIT THEIR ADORABLE FACES. BABIES.
In other news, I am officially broken, having sat through eight episodes of The Invasion, ten of The War Games, and The Wheel in Space (six episodes, four of them reconstructions) with hardly a thought for how long or slow any of it was. Send help.
I have, actually, watched The War Games long ago and liked it even back then when I basically knew nothing about the show. Am pleased that it is still great, but Jesus Christ, that ending hurts when you know the people involved. WHY. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT TO THEM. IT WAS HORRIBLE. No wonder Three is . . . Three.
ONLY ONE DOCTOR LEFT TO GO. WOE. BUT ALSO YAY. I am ready to have all the Who available in my head and not to have to pick around the bits where people talk about things I've not seen yet.
* For definitions of 'done' that involve having watched everything on BritBox, so: Power of the Daleks, Tomb of the Cybermen, Enemy of the World, Web of Fear, Wheel in Space, The Dominators, Mind Robber, The Invasion, The Krotons, Seeds of Death, and The War Games. Anyone with recommendations for which reconstructions or partial stories are worth watching, I'd be happy for suggestions.

DO YOU SHIP DOCTOR/JAMIE????
I don't! *continues reign of terror over all the beloved traditions of Classic Who* I don't . . . actually think the Doctor's any more attached to Jamie than he is Victoria or Zoe? /heresy
