I dunno, I always thought the Nimon were a cool idea for a monster even if the costumes and acting sucked. Apparently I'm not the only one, since the Nimon got a mention in last weeks episode (The God Complex).

Great video! Thanks for sharing!

I really need to watch this one again. The first time, I didn't use any alcohol.
"Lord Niiiiiiiiimon!"

If only the younger modern "Who" fans would watch the best stories of Tom Baker's era. They would easily forget about everything that came afterwards! That is if visual style and special effects haven't spoiled them. One can only hope that these kiddies will discover "Genesis Of The Daleks". Doesn't get any better than that when it comes to "Who"!

@chrisnoaro1, the lack of humor, witty dialogue, and intriguing stories is what annoys me about the JNT era and modern "Who". Many "Who" fans criticize the Graham Williams era because it's over the top and there's a lot of humor but that's why I enjoy it so. I can watch these stories over and over. So many memorable scenes and awesome dialogue. I think the Gothic Hinchcliffe era is the absolute best in "Who" history but there is so much richness and charm to the Graham Williams era.

@BinroWasRight It is an absolutely brilliant Dr WHO story. One of the best ever. Pure Douglas Adams inspired madness. Over the top acting and great comedy value. Genius

ROFLMAO!!! The story so bad it's almost good! Although I agree, 'twas a great story for Romana :~D

This story just shows that you can have a great mix of death, imposing aliens, some sharp dialogue, a bit of comedy and all of this without farting aliens.

I was 6 when this was televised. "Mercy Lord Nimon!" was something my dad used to say to for years thereafter!
Look this is Doctor who at it's preverse best. It is much better than some of the rubbish passing for Doctor Who nowadays. It is funny and badly made but the heart of the thing is wonderful. Ignore the production values, it doesn't matter.
