paradise towers part 1

[cybertardis99]

When I read about this episode in DWM I really wanted to watch it

[MilleniumFoxMagician]

Seven's pretty skillful with his hat tricks. :D

[GrandFunker]

One of my favorite Doctor Who series!

[Waffen9999]

Hahahah I remember this serial. The old cannibal women. Hehe

[themoviedudesteam]

my fav doctor!

[highspeedhawk]

I think this is based around the book 'high rise' by JG Ballard which is also set in a desimated tower block.

BBC, please pay attention (not that you will): If you won't let us watch the episodes, people who haven't seen them won't want to buy the DVDs. So stop taking them down.

[roboticscreamskull]

wtf is going on until 1:49

[keiracounsell]

@roboticscreamskull well th titles and then a bit of a bish bash between clips of the doctor and mel talking about where they are going next ( paradise towers ) and a yellow kang.. what looks like th last yellow kang being taunted and then killed by a cleaner

[soeffingwhat]

@keiracounsell - Exactly, I remember watching this first in late 1987. I was only 12 but loved it, even though I didn't understand everything that was going on :-D

[zenileon]

Love that Tardis console too¬

[zenileon]

Muuuuuuuch better than I remember it actually! Mccoy wat eht most Doctorly Doctor we had for quite some time at that point!

[MrLexical]

caretaker 345 etc is reasonably hot

this ep is a lot of fun - better than i remembered it actually ...

[denial987]

Typical of the Doctor, isn't it? He always travel to some planet or whatever and it never turns out to be what it is supposed to be.

[CaptEoNinja83]

I love that the Doctor's hat is on top of the TARDIS pillar. That's so cute.

6:23 The red Kang's greeting is neat. Good writing.

[SciFiAssasin]

At 02:36 it's the final ever use of the Tardis' big red door-knob.

[SamusDrake]

I remember watching this as a kid and never got past the first episode - it was seeing the leg sticking out of that cleaning robot that scared the crap out of me! O_O

[LeonSKennedy828]

Mind you, this Doctor is starting to grow on me.

[LeonSKennedy828]

The 7th Doctor's theme makes me want to kill things...

[BNCA70]

The best thing about this era was the opening theme. The next best thing? The closing theme. That's about as good as it got. (Sorry Sylvester fans)

[NFLMega]

love the tardis lol mccoy best dr ever x

[Cats1357911]

What a noise.

[MsStarsea]

OMG, I LOVE Seven's expression as Mel is talking: "Remind me why you're here again... because I'm beginning to think you'd prefer the pool to the TARDIS."

[danbroad9]

i love mccoy as the doctor

[CiaranMcVeigh]

I love the 7th Doctor era theme music and intro! :)

[keiracounsell]

OMFG :O ME 2!!!!!! :D:D:D

[daisykid]

@keiracounsell lol, haha, wow, so excited

[CaptEoNinja83]

@CiaranMcVeigh Same here!! I've only heard it once so far, but it is so delightfully 80's, I can't help but LOVE it!!

[RJL738]

Thanks for having this up here, this is a weird episode .

[harrymanback]

So very 80s! I love it...but then again, if Doctor Who is still going in 20 years time, people will probably look backs on the most recent episodes and go "So very 2000s!" haha

[bastardtubeuser]

This is brilliant thanks for uploading this, haven't seen it since it aired originally.

[Raflegan]

notice minute 1:00 - the graffiti on the wall is the robots claw killing the yellow kang; in the corner where that yellow kang actually gets killed by said type of disposal robot. Meta-reference instance of the McCoy era just like the beginning of the series coming on in Remembrance as Ace walks out of that house ;)

[Gray99]

I love blues, but my reds are so funny...

[akerbie]

Paradise Towers!.... here we come!

[SciFiAssasin]

2.36...Last ever use of the big red Tardis door-knob...

That's the geekiest thing I've ever written.

[kamelion7]

@SciFiAssasin Also the penultimate glimpse of the console room ever...(bar the dimly lit snippet in 'Battlefield') Quite sad really (me and this fact!!)

[SciFiAssasin]

@kamelion7 It was in the following two stories, and one scene in the next series, before Battlefield. I'm sadder than you, if this makes you feel better.

[kamelion7]

@SciFiAssasin Oh yeah!!! What a div. For a minute there I thought this was season 25!!! Of course it showed up in DELTA, DRAGONFIRE and GREATEST SHOW plus one quck bit in BATTLEFIED - see, I match your sadness!!! HAHAHA :-)

[Docwhoeven]

i wonder if there were any green kangs that got wiped out way back.

[furyplum44]

@Docwhoeven I wondered that too

[akerbie]

I agree with "mattinkedron" about Mel.

Glad to see this video back on YouTube. I have it on my MP3 player.

[mattinkedron]

I dont get everyone hated Mel so much....i mean, after two big whingers like Tegan and Peri its nice to have someone who actually enjoyed travellering with the Doctor!!!...and u gotta love the crazy 1980's perm!!!

[furyplum44]

"AAAAAAAAH he wants to how you do...."

"do we?"

Poor old yellow kang, wish we could have seen more of em :D
