Well, gslam & ting have now both commented on visuals within stories and neither has answered my point that they wouldn't be able to make those comments if the stories existed as audios only. |

The best:
Fury from the Deep Evil of the Daleks Web of Fear Invasion The Mind Robber Worst: Under Water Menace The krotons (as with 'the Twin Dilema' I can't stand it when production vaules are so low, they are just removing labels from house hold appliances to pass them off as space tech) The Space Pirates The Dominators |

![]() You know, I still think Season 5 is one of the best Seasons ever in Who history. It's a ruddy shame so many episodes of it are missing. Listening to them all on audio is such a great experience and even The Web Of Fear comes across great because of that creepy incidental music. It's one of the few audio stories that really gives out that special vibe through the music and I love it to bits!

This is very difficult, having to rely on the soudnstrack CDs ... most of which I have only heard once!
In no spaffic order: WORST: Evil of the Daleks The Highlanders The Dominators The Abominable Snowmen The Space Pirates I hated Evil. It's like a virgin's knickers: on and on and on. It never ends. Jamie and a Mute Ethnic wander round some corridors for bloody hours, with blades falling from ceilings and trapdoors opening beneath them. Rubbish. It's "capture/escape/capture/escape" for episode after episode. I am sure people are only excited about it because they've never seen it. The 1960s stuff is fun, but a lot of the Victorian stuff drags terribly. Whovians, your Emperor has no clothes on. |

Having actually seen them all (but can;t remember most):
Best War Games; The Invasion; Tomb of Cybermen, Mind Robber, Evil of Daleks ......... Worst: The Two Doctors. Don;t know why people hate Dominators and Krotons so much. Both are a bit silly, but so are Daleks if you think about it. |

I havent seen Many Patrick Troughton stories but I will give it a go
These Episodes I havent seen or havent completed watching :- The Power of the Daleks The Highlanders The Macra Terror The Faceless Ones The Evil of the Daleks The Abominable Snowmen The Enemy of the World The Web of Fear Fury from the Deep The Wheel In Space The Krotons The Space Pirates So my Favourites 1 The War Games ( Such an epic and my best Doctor Who of all Time with Keys of Marninus) 2 The Invasion ( Its not because of the cybermen that I like this story Its because of Tobias Vaughn. Hes such a cool villian. Also I love the iconic scenes with the cybermen in London) 3 The Underwater Menace ( Your probally thinking I'm mad to rank the Underwater Menace this high. But I think if you watch it as a comedy its a great Doctor Who story. The plot is a bit mad ( and so is the villian) but its entertaining) 4 Tomb of the Cybermen ( The first troughton story I ever saw. But I think its obvious why people like this one) 5 The Mind Robber ( Its wonderfully different and stands out from most other stories) 6 The Moonbase ( I love Troughtons cybermen stories. This one is basically is up here for the same reasons I like Tomb) Worst From what Ive seen The Dominators but thats all. |

Out of the relatively few I've watched, I'd rank them -
1) The War Games 2) Tomb of the Cyberman 3) The Ice Warriors 4) The Invasion 5) The Seeds of Death 6) The Dominators 7) The Mind Robber - I know Robber is well regarded but I just find it so, so dull. |

Best and worst Patrick Troughton Stories
I Haven't seen much but by what I have seen, it follows like this:
1. The Invsasion- This story really is amazing 2.Web of Fear- Not Great at the start but from Part 4 it is excellent 3.[b]The Moonbase[/B- This story is very underrated. 4.Tomb of the Cybermen- Good Story but it isn't great 5.The Ice Warriors- This may be my least favourite but I still enjoy this story. |
