The Doctor Who Companion [Unofficial]The Fendahl Files: Contemporary Views on Tom Baker’s Last Doctor Who Series, Season 18 — Part 2
Doctor Roo21st March 1981. In the shadow of the towering radio telescope, a body lies crumpled and broken. The curly-haired man, dressed in a burgundy coat and a ridiculously long scarf, is the Doctor, and he is dying.
“It’s the end, but the moment has been prepared for…”
You can keep your CGI firework displays. Forty-five years on, this is still the best regeneration.

zimpenfishBloody hell, now I'm watching "Logopolis" and I had completely forgotten how annoying Adric is. Just awful dialogue.
Some good Thames footage for geolocation fun later though.

Doctor Who: Radio Free SkaroRadio Free Skaro #1031 – Before and After Science
http://traffic.libsyn.com/freyburg/rfs1031.mp3
A sad time in the world of Doctor Who as we mark the passing of writing titan Christopher H. Bidmead, and to join us in reflecting on both his work and life is Andrew Smith, writer of “Full Circle”, Big Finish dynamo, and friend of the esteemed Mr. Bidmead. Andrew looks back at getting his first break in TV due to Bidmead, working with him on behind the scenes features, and the man’s general approach to Doctor Who, including an infusion of science and a real sense of continuity where none previously existed. We’ve also got the usual bevy of news including more vague handwaving on the future of Doctor Who, 1970’s Cyberman dolly goodness, a new fancy tier for Britbox, and more!

LizWhoFanWatching “Logopolis” on Pluto- this is the first time I’ve seen it (mostly) all the way through. I’ve only ever seen clips of the Doctor’s regeneration . Really enjoying it so far. #DoctorWho #Logopolis #FourthDoctor #Nyssa #Tegan #Adric #TheMaster
Groundhoggoth@MrBlipvert I clicked on the hashtag for this message and it took me to this message, so there's some #Logopolis chat for you
GayleThis evening I've watched The Daemons for the first time. Loving Ms Hawthorn and Jo's mustard trouser suit.
Now watching #Logopolis - also for the first time ever. Never realised it was Tegan's introduction, too.
