"Why do I always let my curiosity get the better of me?", The Doctor, "Black Orchid" I really like this story. And I was hoping you would find things to enjoy in it. Ok, this plot isn't all that deep - but I love TV dramas/whodunnits in this historical period. Perhaps it's a bit stereotypical but it's fun and it's the first historical story without a science-fiction concept since, I think, "The Highlanders". (And perhaps a bit too stereotypical with the reference to "the hunt" - fox hunting.) As you mentioned, it's really nice to see the TARDIS crew getting to enjoy themselves - well, until the finale. And the period music and the dancing. Go, Tegan (Janet)! - that was great! And great to see your reaction to it. Go, Peter as well - we get to see him playing cricket - finally matching his outfit! And because of the cricket, the story writer can get away with a nice misdirection: they mention "The Master" and "the other Doctor" - and we, Who viewers, know what that would mean. But it turns out it is just a reference to an extremely famous cricket player - Dr. W. G. Grace. The equivalent of him in U.S. baseball would probably be Babe Ruth. Incidentally, this very Doctor Who episode is referenced on the wikipedia page for W. G. Grace - Doctor Who gets everywhere! And go, Sarah in the double role of Nyssa and Ann. She did say it was a favorite story of hers - but that there were lots of costume changes. And at least Matthew gets a practical plate of food. It's a bit difficult to see, but the weather during the outside filming was quite bad - very windy and dark and rainy. The field for the cricket game looks particularly soggy. And the wind picked up during the scenes on the terrace. I used to quiz people on a discord channel with Doctor Who locations presented in Google Street View and they had to guess the story. Here's the one for this episode (you already know the answer - it's "Black Orchid") but do you recognise the exterior location from the episodes? https://goo.gl/maps/MigGzPraWkHwjQAW9 "As a boy, I always wanted to drive one.", The Doctor on steam engines, "Black Orchid" So sweet.

Poor George, I always felt sorry for him and it has always upset me that they hid him away. I suppose that's how things went back then.

Yes, we know. I think he has stated it to anyone who'll listen since its original transmission.

I do wonder, did Sarah Sutton get paid for both roles?
