I didn't like this one the first time I saw it either, but the informative text really helps. I think this is the only serial of the sixth doctor I've seen all the way through.<br /><br />and yes, he does work with the Time Lords in this one. it's a fun show.X7https://www.blogger.com/profile/16050119714244967980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3992560227304007969.post-24519666872837387232011-08-18T16:14:02.095-07:002011-08-18T16:14:02.095-07:00I seem to remember feeling a bit disappointed with...I seem to remember feeling a bit disappointed with this one when I watched it, for some reason. Of course, it's been a long time.<br /><br />Unfortunately, though I think Colin Baker is an underrated Doctor, his stories are sometimes problematic. The "Trial of the Time Lord" is the great epic of his version.<br /><br />I have no idea if there is an "official" explanation or not, but the second Doctor was the one who was punished by the Time Lords for being a renegade. He was stranded on Earth (as the third Doctor), and I seem to remember his companions lost their memories of their adventures. Maybe some memory jiggering went on with him, too?<br /><br />(Of course, doesn't he <i>work</i> with the Time Lords in this story? Continuity is not at a premium in the entire run of DOCTOR WHO. That's the real answer.)C. Elamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00284263547435956344noreply@blogger.com
