I really like The Invasion of Time. And The Armageddon Factor. And Planet of the Spiders. And The Time Monster...
Invasion of the Dinosaurs is a cracking adventure

I like all of those except the Sensorites and that is not bad just boring.
The Mutants is a cracker. Very dark with disturbing racial overtones.
Might start a thread on it.

I haven't seen it for ages: it's one of the very few stories I don't own. I remember it being quite poor, but am looking forward to the DVD just to refresh my memory!

Ah, but then I never said that weren't many worse six-parters, just that there were many better ones!
(To be honest, I don't think we're really in disagreement here, other than over the definition of "many")
The Web Planet is a pretty good story for those who are willing to stick it out and watch.
I haven't seen IoTD yet, but I will keep an open mind when I do! (mind you, this is DW we're talking about; I usually keep an open mind when I watch classic stuff - I don't mind because the stories are fantastic, and the whole thing is great fun!)
