Oh man did you see they found 2 long lost episodes?

I did not know that
Fifty quid says those episodes look a bit naff now

£1000 says all episodes up to the modern iteration look fucking naff/shit/budget

You'd be surprised.
Some of them hold up pretty well.

I have never seen a clip that looked anything but god-awful

looks like you owe DG a grand.

That's because
when clips shows generally show a clip of the earliest stuff, they'll choose the naffest ones possible.

They still LOOK naff
but some of the writing in the earlier ones is so good that it hardly matters. Notably The Caves of Androzani, and Tomb of the Cybermen

Androzani is an excellent story.
And I'd argue that it looks pretty good for its time, too. Apart from the magma beast, which is thankfully only in it fleetingly.

Tomb of the Cybermen was a huge disappointment when I saw it. Great story, but the execution really let it down.

I loved that one
Although the Cybermen look crap now, they scared me stupid when I was a kid. Genesis of the Daleks is an excellent story too, even if it is an example of the Doctor beign a bit crap.

Genesis is in my top ten favourites of the old series.

Horror of Fang Rock
Robots of Death
Spearhead from Space
Caves of Androzani

Invasion Earth 2150 is my personal favourite though I am no expert

( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Thu 15 Dec 2011, 15:01, Reply)

Not official, but enjoyable nonetheless.

Cracking film

( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Thu 15 Dec 2011, 15:03, Reply)

One from what is regarded as one of the worst stories ever made.
I've seen the only other surviving episode and it's crap.

Doctor doctor I'm feeling a little hoarse.
No, but I once told a donkey to fuck off.

It's a fusion joke.
