The Five Doctors could be a protest vote for how hilariously easily they get mowed down by the Raston Warrior Robot... except that on-screen this turned out to be a dude doing squats in a body stocking

even the cover of the novel was shinier silver

I wonder if that scene was the first mainstream TV appearance of something approximating a morph suit?

SN is great - it doesn't take itself seriously, there are a lot of different converging plots so it never gets boring, and it's only three episodes long, so there's none of that 'bugger all happens for an entire fucking episode' nonsense.

I like SN, and there's certainly lots of different stuff going on, describing them as 'plots' seems a little over-generous, though
