The Sea Devils - Episode 6
This has got to be one of the most action-packed final episodes in Doctor Who ever. Lots of action, lots of gunplay, lots of speeding vehicles, the Master, the Doctor, the Sea Devils, the military... all great. Walker is such a spineless wimp. Good to see Jo still staying strong, participating in some of the action and not just standing by. The speedboat chase between the Doctor and the Master is fun, and we get to see the Doctor get positively drenched. The final scene, where the Master gets away, is a classic. Oh, and we also get to hear Pertwee's rare "reverse the polarity of the neutron flow" line! Of course, since neutrons have no polarity, that makes no sense, but still, it sounds cool.
Most definitely thumbs up for "The Sea Devils". Excellent location work, great cooperation from the Royal Navy, Roger Delgado, cool monsters. Everything comes together to make this a rip-roaring fun time. More suited to a season ender than a midseason story, but what can you do. Lots of fun, this one!
