okayThe rest: it’s okay and not all that bad. Turlough in shorts, Peri’s bosom, the Master’s dying…again. The rushed ending. Not at all bad. Maybe not rushed but sort of …heading in that direction that we all know it’s going to. Still, it’s not all bad. How many crashed colony ships have we seen over the years? Way too many. Davison’s all right. His non pulsed at Kam’s demise and his daze at the Master’s…is amazingly well done. Still, in this era of the show and truthfully most of them before RTD’s new series…nothing was fully explored…just hinted at. We have to really fill in the blanks ourselves. Why is the Doc so shocked at the Master’s death? What was the Master saying at the end? Turlough? What is happening there? Nothing is fully emotionally found out. It’s just hinted at. I don’t need all the answers but to be invested in the characters I would like to know something. This is why I think Tegan is so popular. We know what happened to her Aunt. We know how she feels. Ditto Adric. I found Adric to be the most interesting because he was multi layered and emotional. Of course, the writers didn’t know how to deal with him or that stuff. Anyway Plane of Fire is sometimes under rated. The locations are fabulous but Peri does grate after a bit…
