Really hard to believe that there is no other water available in the Tardis. Heck the food dispenser had 2 buttons for water. The Doctor should have worked on repairing it when he was back in the Tardis. Interesting that Barbara is the only one suspicious of Tegana.

Best episode of this story yet...Ping-Cho is an excellent supporting character. Once again, closing my eyes during the audio really improves the experience, as William Russell describing Barbara's exploration of the cave was akin to a good Dungeon Master setting the scene...

DOCTOR: "Young man, you have no concept of what is happening, have you? And you still don't seem to realise that you're speaking to a man of superior intellect."
This was better that last episode. I'm so glad we have the telesnaps for this episode, I love the costumes! I'm not sure an animation could do this episode justice.

I do think this story didn't need 7 parts. The water-supply subplot wasn't useful at all...
Pretty boring episode again. The assassin stuff was ok but the rest is just painful.

A little better episode. I'm thinking the condensation thing was a bit of a stretch but ok.

Was I the only one who thought of Family Guy?
Every single time they mentioned condensation I was liek "COnensation-sation-sation"
"What's this water on my glass." "That's condensation." "What about this fog on the window?" "That too is condensation." "COndensation-sation-sation"

Once again I find myself almost falling asleep “watching” this one.
