"An apple a day keeps the, er ... never mind.", The Doctor, "Kinda" Well, we finally got to this story. I should say that I don't go out of my way to watch people feel uncomfortable - but I'm also a completionist and I consume all the "Doctor Who" material that I can. So I'll skip over any possibly uncomfortable content here and just recall the glorious weirdness of "The Wherever" world, and the wonderful contrast between the Kinda society and the base occupants. Oh, and I like the pith-helmets of the base uniforms. I love Todd (played by Nerys Hughes) and the way she works with the Doctor. Nerys, was well known for her role in "The Liver Birds" TV series. But she was also later in a "Torchwood" episode - she was Rhys's mother in the marriage episode "Something Borrowed". That was a memorable part! BTW: another "Torchwood" tie in. Jack mentions the Mara in "Small Worlds" - the story about the little girl and the fairies. Richard Todd (who played Sanders - the dome commander) was a veteran British actor from the 1940-60s - he had had an Oscar nomination for "Best Actor". There is a story that at one point Matthew Waterhouse (Adric) tried to demonstrate how Richard Todd should act in a scene (remember, Richard Todd had a "Best Actor" Oscar nomination!) - utterly horrifying the other actors. BTW: one of the kids in the Kinda crowd was apparently Jonny Lee Miller ("Trainspotting", "Elementary"). Oh, and yes - Janet absolutely kills it in that scene.

This is in my top five 5th Doctor story's, it's a brilliant piece of writing. I loved that you mentioned Mr Chase from The Seeds of Doom, my number one favourite story. Yes, he and Hindel would not see eye to eye.

It seems that the story of Matthew Waterhouse instructing Richard Todd about acting is broadly out of context. Apparently Waterhouse flubbed a take by accidentally looking at the camera, and self-deprecatingly mentioned to Todd the importance of ignoring the cameras. So he did say it, just not in the way it's been taken.

This story is brimming with Buddhist themes and references. Deva Loka, the planet, means "realm of the gods; the Mara is a Buddhist demon symbolising temptation; Dukkha, the creepy Mara guy, means "suffering" (as well as being a play on "Doctor"); Panna, the blind woman, means "wisdom"; Karuna, the young girl, means "compassion"; and the two chess players, Anatta and Annica, mean "not-self" and "impermanence" respectively. Together with Dukkha, these two represent the three marks of existence. Add into the mix the forbidden apples, one thrown to the Doctor by the only female in the base and the other dropped from a tree in the middle of a paradise by another female possessed by a serpent... well, you get the ifea.
