Goodbye D84, all the best, we will miss you

Posted by on in TV

After watching The Robots of Death recently I had to look out some of my favourite D84 quotes as his character was brilliantly written.

So here they are:

DOCTOR: Well, if Taren Capel is on board, he’d have a workshop, and we must find it before it’s too late. Would you like to come with me?
D84: Yes, please.
DOCTOR: Good. Come on then.

D84: I heard a cry.
DOCTOR: That was me.
D84: I heard a cry.
DOCTOR: That was me!
D84: I heard a cry.
DOCTOR: That was me.
D84: I heard a cry.

D84: It is a Laserson probe. It can punch a fist sized hole in six inch armour plate or take the crystals from a snowflake one by one.

D84: Please do not throw hands at me.

D84: Poul is damaged. I do not understand what has happened to him. This may be because I am not human.

D84: Goodbye, my friend.

What an excellent story. I might have to go and watch it all over again now.

Doctor Who: Harvest of Time

I mainly bought this as it was read by Geoffrey Beevers and I think he has an excellent voice. As it turns out it is in fact a Doctor Who story of truly epic proportions. I should think it would have to be an 8 or 9 part story if it had been done in the old days. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed it and I’ll probably be looking out anymore by the same writer and also stories read by Mr Beevers too.

4th Doctor: Destroy The Infinite

Another episode in the current 4th Doctor series. I’m looking forward to this.

I think at some point later in the year I’ll have to listen to the whole series again to get a better view on the whole story arc, which is a bit difficult to see at the moment.

4th Doctor: Last of the Colophon

I really need to listen to this again as I think I fell asleep through a lot of it. I was on my way back from Chesterfield last weekend after a particularly good birthday weekend for an old friend, and my mind did wander as I listened.

So it deserves a second hearing I think and then I’ll be able to decide what I think of this episode.
