Don't forget The First Doctor and The Abbot of Amboise! And yeah, jaime beat me to it on Maxil. It'll be a pleasant surprise.
Wise. Strella and Romana was explicitly because Romana copied her no? I have missed the twitch streams recently, and have never seen the key to time arc.
Technically there’s also Omega and three Daleks androids to come..but they don’t count. And Mel and the Rani, but...welll...
I just watched her regeneration episode and she copied Princess Astra, so Romana II looks deliberately like Princess Astra, while Romana I looks coincidentally like Princess Strella.
In most cases, the many doubles are cosmic coincidences. Only Romana II/Astra and Twelfth Doctor/Caecilius are directly connected.
Yes, the contrafibulation of the temporal web oscillating with the morphogenic field. Would you like Jelly Baby?
There are only four times when the Doctor or companions are doubles for people they encounter; every other one is a deliberate dupe. In hundreds of landings across all space/time it's bound to happen eventually, particularly if the TARDIS is in a mischievous mood.
Oops. I forgot about that, it's only telesnaps. Memory cheats. I hope Web3 gets recovered and restored. Some cans were already turned to mush over time. But if it doesn't happen, at least most of it got recovered in time. I recall an article on their restoration: https://www.radiotimes.com/news/201...-team-on-bringing-lost-episodes-back-to-life/ 100 hours, per episode, and of the 11 episodes recovered they only needed to work on 9 of them (Enemy3 and Web1 were already completed. I thought that article had a visual example of Web in an original vs restored state but the text is there, verbatim... Hope you get to that one, it's one of Hartnell's best. Maybe slowly paced at times, but that's mostly in the middle, the opening episode posits a mystery for one thing, and it's all got a few fun surprises... Only recently did I find out that industrial action required location filming for the TARDIS scenes for the big chase in later episodes. I used to believe they were really being cheap given the budgetary problems... It's the first one in decades that really looks good.
Invasion of Time is a one-off in that the location (including the TARDIS infrastructure scenes) were shot after the studio work. Note how Louise Jameson tries to suggest an Andred/Leela affection in the film work that isn't there in the studio work. Due to the overspend and industrial action, the BBC bosses had suggested that either Underworld or Invasion of Time be abandoned.
Watching City of Death. The biggest sci-fi element so far... not waiting in line for five hours to get into the Louvre
Well, actually...if you get a ticket online with a set time and go first thing in the morning, the wait is about 30 minutes (speaking from experience). But just showing up? Yeah, llloooonnnggg wait. The other big sci-fi element: No giant crowd in front of the "Mona Lisa." Although, again, if you go first thing in the morning and go straight to it... The Doctor may have called the butler wonderfully violent, it was really Duggan who fit that description.
I wouldn’t mind seeing Duggan with Canton Delaware. I see, too, that Tom Chadbon is still with us. …A guy can dream, right?
