K9

Doctor Who Serial 096 – Underworld

Part One Doctor, don’t tell your friends to shut up. You can be such an asshole. “Time ships of the Gods!” I like their mellow gun.

Except he’s calling it the “number two control room.” I disagree. C’mon! Have a drink before you shoot people. That’s the least you could do. Damn, Leela, that hat looks good on you. That knife looked like rubber. I needed a “BOING” sound effect. Part Two I forgot that K9 shows up at some point in this story. I can’t wait for that. Also, really digging this soundtrack while the Doctor is in hospital. That receptionist is so rude. “Computer… Read More »Doctor Who Serial 093 – The Invisible Enemy
