The Moonbase

           "There are some corners of the universe which have bred the most terrible things. Things that act against everything we believe in. They must be fought."

With the exception of the above quote I regret I can find little to like about The Moonbase. There are some other good lines, the film sequences set on the moon are well directed, the redesign of the Cybermen, the first story where Troughton settles down the becomes the Doctor we love. But other than that it's a mess. The real low point has to be when a tea tray is used to plug a hole in the base's structure. And this was a story written by a qualified scientist?

The animation used to recreate the missing first and third episodes is a bit hit and miss too, but at least the story is now complete in some form, even is it isn't that great.
