The Invasion - Episode 3

Well, blimey! Been a bit busy, it's been a few days since our last visit. By the way, I believe I forgot to mention last time that we have a new Doctor! Not on our marathon, not just yet. In present day, Christopher Eccleston has been chosen as the Ninth Doctor, and will take over the TARDIS when the series finally returns in 2005 to BBC1. Yay! Anyway...

Video and audio quality are much better here. Sadly, the episode is kinda boring. And no Zoe at all! :-( Vaughn is such a sinister villain. Packer is rather irritating. His conversations with his watch phone are unintentionally hilarious, at least. The laid-back 60's lounge jazz music played in Vaughn's office is kinda nifty. Odd to see the Doctor shove anyone that hard on purpose, as he does when he and Jamie escape into the lift. This cliffhanger's a bit better than the last one, as something inside the crate with Jamie begins to move...

And sadly we don't get to see the resolution. Episode 4 is missing from the BBC archives. Bloody BBC... Next time we get Episode 5 instead.
