    Just got round (FINALLY!) to watching this!!

    Have to say thoroughly enjoyed it. I feel it will become one of my favourite classic episodes. Loved the gothic feel to it!
    Great story and lovely extras on disc too (great narration by Paul Mc Gann as ever!)

    One of my faves that one, from the very first time I saw it when it was first broadcast. When I think of Tom Bakers Dr it's one of the ones I think of.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Great Gothic horror episode, typical of that era, a lovely Who-twist on Frankenstein's monster. Also noteworthy for Morbius vs the Doctor where you could have, loosely, interpreted Hartnell's Doctor not to have been the Doctor's first incarnation.

    Good old episodes, saw the prop of Morbius in Blackpool exhibition way, way back, actually last week when I used the TARDIS to go back 35 years on a trip to Lancashire.

    The mindbending game is always the first thing I think of every time the whole regenerations debate crops up. Cracking story, and my favourite Doctor-Companion pairing.
