instead of trying to do an imitation of Roger Delgado.

At least they got it right with Eric Roberts and John Simm.

He got it right in Logopolis, the Five Doctors and Survival, I reckon.
But yeah, he used to complain about having to camp it up somewhat.

I watched it again the other day.
I'm two minds about it. On the one hand, it's quite moody, and I like the TARDIS stuff in it. On the other hand, Janet Fielding is terrible in it, and a lot of it is a bit pretentious and some of it doesn't make sense (flushing the TARDIS out is major bollocks).

And I actually quite liked Roberts' take.
Bit of a vicious bastard (and viscous).
