Oh good lord, be off with you. There are a variety of ways in which you could argue Nimon is better than City of Death, but actually being any good isn't one of them.

Damn it! Just when I though I was 'All Understanding of Doctor who Quotes', y'all start banging on about Horny Nimons and I don't know what!
Well, hoping for alittle 'Hoop' tonight... but the Mrs is on the Warpath. And I ain't talking awesome crimson transforming tanks. Something about a program about exciting house building projects hosted by someone from the Clan Maccleod?
BAAAHHHH!!!!!

Because she's shagging Tom Baker (They got married a year later (I think it was then?) Also the Doctor has a different lapel badge. Was it just this story Phil, or all season 17? |

Also make sure to check out the special features on City of Death disc 2. There's a nice documentary, EYE ON BLATCHFORD and an easter egg you'll like if you click the hidden doctor who logo to the left of the 'annual pdf' option

Indeed. They got married just after she left, and then separated soon after. Lalla Ward used to design her own costumes and they were all a bit unusual. But at least it was her picking them rather than being told to dress like a school girl.
City of Death is the first overseas location shoot too. Which is why there's so much random running around the streets.

It is, because it was a lost story which was unearthed in Hong Kong in the early 90s and rushed out onto video in a blaze of publicity. At which point everyone could evaluate for themselves how good it was instead of having to rely on the ancient memories of 60s fans telling them it was good. It's probably worth pointing out that 90% of of the DVDs you have are regarded as series classics; I don't think anyone could claim the series as a whole is as consistently good as the stories you've been watching  Not *all* of the good stories by any means though. |
