Trading Bessie for Nessie

I watched the first half of Terror of the Zygons. I have a headache. I am going to bed.

Let's barely talk about it.

Terror of the Zygons - parts 1 & 2

(TARDIS Data Core recap)

Seriously, I have a headache and want to crawl into a dark room and not look at a computer screen. This is a really cool story. It has creepy aliens with tentacle suckers all over their bodies. It has the Loch Ness Monster. It has the Brigadier in a kilt. I promise I'll write something much less useless tomorrow for the second half.

Good point. Perhaps, after I finish Blake's 7 and Sapphire & Steele, I should start a grand re-watch and dig back into the b&w era.

Regards the first year weight loss, could the science be that early Doctor Who was more conducive to weight loss than when it went color??? Could color TV be the problem?
