"I hate it when people use accessories for evil!", sesskasays, Reaction to "Enlightenment" Tegan gets a nice Edwardian dress with a tiara - what could possibly go wrong with a costume change in the middle of an episode? And I was hoping you wouldn't forget about naming Beatrice before the end of the story - very happy! And I'm also happy that the Doctor replaced his celery at the party - it was starting to look a bit sad. And we get another reprise of him ignoring the result of him tossing a coin. "I am empty. You give me being. I look into your mind and see life, energy, excitement. I want them. I want you. Your thoughts should be my thoughts. Your feelings, my feelings.", Marriner, "Enlightenment" That's off-scale-high creepy. "They've hoisted their moonrakers!", The Doctor, "Enlightenment" I do appreciate the effort they put into the model work in the story. It's not completely convincing, but the attempt was much appreciated. "Oh, Doctor, you're such a fool. Did you really think your Ephemeral mind could defeat me? You've lost. All that awaits is your ultimate destruction.", Wrack, "Enlightenment" Lynda Baron as Wrack - that is a fun casting! When was she last in Classic Who? That's soooo long ago it's almost impossible to remember - she was the off-screen singer of that interminable song: "The Ballad of the Last Chance Saloon" in "The Gunfighters" - remember? - it's unforgettable! It's your last chance of cussing At a gunfighter's doom, It's your last chance of nothin' At the Last Chance Saloon! [Have I just started an ear-worm in your mind?] BTW: Lynda Baron later returned in New Who as the nice shop assistant in "Closing Time" that confused Eleven's relationship with Craig. "Will the TARDIS still function? The console blew up.", "Oh, probably did it the world of good.", Tegan and the Doctor, "Enlightenment"

Unpopular opinion, but I am gagging for next weeks story!! I have adored it since its original transmission, where I watched as a fascinated six year old. Mainly because of one of the characters we are about to encounter.... Much maligned unjustly, I feel, but unique in every way and one of the best characters in the all of Doctor Who... All join in now......'Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma ________.....'

Beatrice the Dove: "I'm going to have me some barbecued raven! Well singed" Keith the Raven: "NOOOOOOOooooooh!" . . . . Beatrice the Dove: "Mm. Yummy! I wonder what sauce would go down well with that?"

Thanks for another great reaction. This and the previous two stories are, unsurprisingly, referred to as The Black Gaurdian Trilogy. It's a great set of stories & I love how it culminates in Turlough having to make this choice. I also love how, in the first two part of this story, at the beginning when the Doctor keeps hearing words repeated in The Tardis, Jess says 'Imagination, Imagination, Imagination'. Quite shrewed given the guy who plays Wrack's second in command was very famous at the time for being the lead singer in a band called Imagination! Actually met his mum on a bus once, but that's another story! See you next time!

Slightly distraught that the Black Guardian fun is over, and Turlough has lost his bath tap. A universe without a "BOOM! KEITH!" every week scarcely bears thinking about.

Is it... that one... next?
