That's one of those lines that you can read, but only appreciate the full brilliance of when you watch it again.

@SimonFoston Thats right, hence my posting, although only people who are currently 37 can apreciate it ;->

I'm definitely going to miss the brigadier. RIP Mr Courtney.

[Dannypuck]

I always liked the line from "Robot", "Just for once I would like to meet an alien menace that isn't immune to bullets." RIP Brigadier from an American Whovian.

The one and only Brigadier. And the one and only Nicholas Courtney. What a man he was. I love Mike's exasperated expressions in this scene. Plus Bok the Gargoyle was one of the most memorable Doctor Who adversaries. At last 'The Daemons' is coming to DVD this year! Hallelujah! About time!

@glnelson1956 Ah yeah forgot about Terror of the Zygons, Tom Baker's line of 'is that a big enough explosion for you Brigadier?' is brilliant!

Wasn't a big fan of the Dinosaur one as a kid, rather large fear of Dinosaurs when I was 10, still getting over it 8 years later!

[glnelson1956]

@abskwl Invasion of the Dinosaurs and Terror of the Zygons are also two very good UNIT shows featuring Pertwee-era UNIT.

Terror of the Zygons, sadly is the final appearance of the Pertwee era UNIT team of the Brig, Benton and company, BUT it is a VERY good story for them.

Jenkins, you don't say "ya" to a higher ranking officer, you say "yes sir". Jeesh, even i know that.

@ade425mxy no i can and i'm only 19 been watching the show since back it was brought back pertwee and baker are my fave doctors but they are all good and sadly my first doctor who story was destiny of the daleks when i was seven but its not the worst but its still an eh episode 

[abskwl]

Meh stuff the new UNIT, the old UNIT with the Brigadier, Benton and Yates was so much more fun and action orientated. The Robot and Daemons have to be the best episodes for them!

[EuskaltelEuskadi]

@camoblackhawk no, in fact when I saw the weeping angels I thought "Daemons"

[Phoenixmedianetwork]

if Courtney had followed his charter the brig in to teaching then he looks like a math teacher from hell "jenkings boy who failed algebra, five rounds rapid" FIRE
