Terror of the Zygons Review

• Aired Aug-Sept 1975
• Last regular appearance of Ian Marter of Harry Sullivan
• First appearance of the Zygons

I figures this would be a great time to review, Terror of the Zygons, since they will be appearing in the 50th Anniversary episode of Dr Who coming up in November. Terror of the Zygons is a great episode in my opinion. Tom Baker is right in his stride of playing the Doctor. He shines in this episode.

The Zygons are an interesting villain who can take the shape of humans that they capture. The Zygons are stranded on earth and that got me to thinking that a lot of aliens get
stranded on Earth. It seems that any alien flying by Earth, will immediately have spaceship problems and have to land on Earth. It's like the Bermuda Triangle of space. Someone should look into this. The Zygons look kinda ridiculous and there plan to take over the Earth was not really thought out. It should be interesting how they update them in the 50th anniversary episode.

Overall, I give this a 4 out of 5 Tardis's. Solid story, great acting and just the right length makes this episode a must watch. I couldn't end this without talking about time spent in the Tardis by Harry Sullivan. Eventhough his time was short with the Doctor, his impact lasted a long time. Growing up as a kid, Harry was the male companion that I remember the most. He was smart and heroic and complemented Sarah and the Doctor perfectly.

Missing Episodes Found

It's official, the BBC announced that 9 missing episodes of  Dr Who were found in Africa. 5 episodes of Patrick Troughton's "The Enemy of the World" were found, which now the BBC has the complete serial. Should be great to watch Patrick Troughton play the Doctor and the villain in the episode. Also, 4 episodes of Troughton's "Web of Fear" were found which means they are only missing one epsiode of that serial. Web of Fear features the first appearance of Alistar Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart played by the late Nicholas Courtney. I can't wait to see these. I heard they should be out on DVD in November. Hopefully more episodes will be found. Come on everyone start looking. Maybe there's one under my bed.
