Classic!Who s4—The Underwater Menace

[flowsoffire]

Yes, yes, it's one episode in two days! This is legit! *falls off chair*

God it feels GOOD to watch parts that are not recons, even two out of four. My attention span and excitement are a lot higher that way ;) Nice ep overall, and I'm liking the team TARDIS as it is so far, four of them all over again. The plot was nice (Atlantis ftw!), the madman was fun, the costumes were dreadful. Two's squee at being dressed in local wild clothing was hilarious—as was his explaining madness with silly gestures and a very serious face and tone. XD

Epic lines of doom:

Polly about the Doctor (eating ambrosia ravenously): "I don't know. I've never seen him go for food like this before. It's usually hats."

Ben: "Do you know what you're doing?"
Two: "Oh, what a question. Of course I don't!"

Two: "Then perhaps the distant roaring that we can hear is just the goddess Amdo with the indigestion?"

Jamie (about the TARDIS): ""I'll never know what makes it go, mind you, but, well, at least I feel safe in here. It's only the wee things outside that are, well, alarming."

I might get wild and get started on The Moonbase next. I know I'll probably get some s7 caps sometime soon, and the icon-making cravings will be back with a fury then, and besides I wouldn't mind getting some writing done… Better watch while I can ;)

Pfft what else should we remember it for?!

We see the Master eat jelly babies (:D) with Lucy and we see him eat ravenously after the fucked-up return complete with skeleton flashes… somehow I do not think this counts…
That's also a good point! Maybe the second one doesn't count, but the first def. does. Plus that one's eating-for-pleasure instead of out of necessity, right? So they can do that.

but can survive a lot longer without sustenance and be less weakened as an effect
I'd like to subsribe to this theory! (There's an episode where the Time Lords have nourishment tablets(?) of some kind, but I dunno how that fits into their eating habits...)

I think Ten ate in the s3 finale with Martha and Jack, too, when they were on the run.
Yesss, he did, you're right! Oh, and he almost ate that family's marmalade in Fear Her. XD

NOOOOOOOOOOTHING!

Yes! They often do seem to eat for pleasure rather than necessity. ^_^

(There's an episode where the Time Lords have nourishment tablets(?) of some kind, but I dunno how that fits into their eating habits...)
In a messy way. XDDD I think amongst the first episodes there was a machine that made food in the TARDIS, like, you press buttons, a thing comes out. Defeats the purpose of the several kitchens, but this was 1963-TARDIS.

Oh, and he almost ate that family's marmalade in Fear Her. XD
Did he? I'd forgotten! XDDD

Oh, right, yes there was a food machine! I remember it had a 'water' label! (Let's blame that one on Susan. The Doctor wanted several kitchens, but Susan didn't and Susan won because granddaughter. ;) )

I think that was part of Ten's lick-everything phase. And Rose is like... *shakes head*.

Hahaha, okay, let's blame Susan! :D

*giggles* The lick-everything phase. Oh my ♥
