Read the book, now watching the DVD.
Excitement!!!
So you take the daft dog, who is the reason you couldn’t go to Spain in the first place, and you head out early and by yourself, much earlier than you would wake at home to the alarm and the bus stop and the traffic; and you head out across the endless beach - there is just one other group of people there; a man in a very long scarf who appears to - he can’t be, surely - throwing sticks for a small metal dog whilst a young brown-haired girl in a miniskirt and knee high boots claps and bends over laughing, but that cannot possibly be the case, so you decide to just give the crazy people a wide berth on this perfect morning, and follow your own real dog, and breathe in the air, and feel the daft cares and worries of the rest of the world fall right away; you can’t even get a mobile signal.

FOURTH DOCTOR: Now drop your weapons, or I’ll kill him with this deadly jelly baby.
WARRIOR: Kill him, then.
FOURTH DOCTOR: What?
WARRIOR: Kill him, then.
FOURTH DOCTOR: I don’t take orders from anyone. Take me to your leader.— The Face of Evil
DALEK: It is the Doctor! Exterminate!
ELEVENTH DOCTOR: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait! I wouldn’t if I were you! TARDIS self-destruct. And you know what that means: my ship goes, you all go with it.
[…]
DALEK: Scan reveals nothing! TARDIS self-destruct device non-existent!
ELEVENTH DOCTOR: All right, it’s a Jammie Dodger. But I was promised tea!— Victory of the Daleks
In another edition of “People Being On Doctor Who After Looooong Amounts of Time”, here we have Louis Mahoney, who was the newscaster in Frontier in Space and a Morestran in Planet of Evil, and then returned some 30-odd years later in Blink as Old!Billy. This little slice of Who trivia brought to you by my intense amusement about it.
