I am the Master and you will obey me.

roger delgado is the best master out of all the actors to play the role he was absolutely sinister with no sense of humour and that devilish look just made him more terrorfying.

@GazzTheFunkadelic To be honest 'pressing switches' was a very comon way to defeat the Daleks in the classic series, they were way more 'tangible'. You could just ambush one if you were prepared (Or happened to be Ace)

[fjccommish]

@OmegaShenron6574 The new series Doctor is always apologizing for killing the bad guys. The old series Doctor at times didn't like what he had to do, but he certainly didn't berate himself after killing bad guys. Tom Baker didn't destroy the Daleks after he thought they had a truce. But he wouldn't have stranded himself in another dimension for being "too dangerous" because he killed Daleks.

@outofthegreenmist it's after he tries to stangle Peri and breaks down crying, but it might be an ad lib.

@Djarra At what point during the regeneration from the fifth to the sixth Doctor does "he declare his love for Romana"?

[OmegaShenron6574]

@Djarra the only relationship i know of that led to sex was with bernice summerfield. and in another eighth doctor audio story both he and charley were naked for the whole thing

tbh baker's regen was poorly handled

[Djarra]

@OmegaShenron6574 I thought Colin Baker said he loved Romana during his traumatic regeneration from Peter Davidson. Although he also attempted to strangle Peri so perhaps that was more the effect of the regeneration.

I always thought that the sixth doctor had an affair with Mel but after he regenerated it cooled. Although that could be again because Langford and (Colin) Baker had an off screen fling.

[OmegaShenron6574]

@Djarra he married the actress, but never declared love for romana. he didn't particularly like her at first because of her being dumped on him. she is also 300 years younger than the doctor which isn't much older than susan.

[Djarra]

@OmegaShenron6574 Didn't he declare his love for Romana during his fifth regeneration, and later the seventh Doctor refers to unrequited love which can be interpreted as Romana.

As for Rose she was so annoying the only time anyone could fall for her would be under The Masters mind control as when he kissed the Brig in a third doctor novel.

[OmegaShenron6574]

@Djarra as for ace, he was teaching her, training her. in season 27 (if it had aired) the doctor was going to take ace to gallifrey and have her enter the prydonian academy

[OmegaShenron6574]

@Djarra well yeah but that was before he had children and grandchildren. the current doctor has had a family so why would he risk losing someone that close to him again for some clingy chav
