- fun with dodgy production values.
Everyone knows Dr.Who is cheap and was made in a hurry and therefore you have to overlook some sloppy stuff and bad FX/cheesy monsters etc. This story is a case in point. You do have to suspend your disbelief quite a bit at times and a lot of fans just don't want to cut this story any slack. I think that's a pity as the script and story are supposed to be what counts and while this one is pretty sad in some production areas (there was a strike mid-production, apparently!) the fact is this is a fast paced, suspenseful story with a very, very good script. And the sets are impressive and the model work is good and the Silurians look quite good at times, too, so it aint all bad. Yes, there's some dodgy stuff, but if you focus on the story and just ...

- What a waste of time
I am a huge fan of Doctor Who. In fact I own over 100 stories. But I have to say that this is possibly the worst story in its history. Since there are no good points, I'll go straight to the bad ones.

Firstly there is the overall look of the sets. O.K so, it's all clean and shiny, but when you know that the original scripts described it as more like the sets from Alien, then you feel a tad cheated.

Secondly, there is Ingrid Pitt as a germanic dropkicking medical doctor. The only thing to say about that is 'why?'.

Thirdly there is the Myrca. Described in the original scripts as being a tall, menacing monster that was always in the shadows picking off the cast one by one, you again feel cheated when it turns ... Read More:

- A Dismal Beginning to Season 21
The Sea Devils and Silurians return in a story which should - and could - have been much better. The whole affair is rendered completely unbelievable by being set in a seabase lit like a supermarket and containing monsters which sadly don't live up to the reputation of their 70s counterparts. Most of the cast try their best but are let down badly by the production standards. The Myrka has to be one of the most embarrassing "Who" monsters ever, looking exactly like a huge green pantomime horse. There certainly should have been another way!

- A fine start to Season 21...
The first story of the twenty - first season of Doctor Who, 'Warriors of the Deep', is no way as bad as some fans make it out to be. The story begins with Peter Davison's Doctor and his companians Tegan and Turlough making an emergency landing in an underwater Sea Base in the year 2084, where they encounter a stressed out crew constantly under the threat of nuclear war, and poised to launch missiles at any moment on an unseen human foe.

In addition to those problems, the base soon comes under attack from a squadron of reptilian Silurians and their Sea Devil cousins (their first appearance in the series for 12 years), who intend to trigger the base's missiles and start a war that would wipe out all humans from Earth, leaving ...
