You would have to have a heart of stone not to find something to enjoy in the glitzy extravaganza of The Five Doctors. My favourite scenes are those with the Raston Warrior Robot – Doctor Who’s tribute to Monty Python’s Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog.
I wish I could remember where and when, but alas, I can’t. Maybe hate is too strong a word, but I definitely remember people making fun of it. I couldn’t tell you why, since I disagree with them and thing they’re terribly misguided. 😉
I remembered our conversation today as I've been listening to the Tread Perilously episode for The Five Doctors. Eric is clearly the real DW fan, and Justin is sort of along for the ride and hasn't got a full grasp of the show, but, well... he's not a fan of the RWR. (He also thinks Lis Sladen was "middle-aged" in this episode, which she most certainly was not...) https://www.treadperilously.com/episodes/wzpuit260juocoh41i03kwwp0lbs7a
I have always loved the Raston Warrior Robot, and have never understood how so much of fandom hates it. I’m glad to see I’m in good company after all!
I hadn’t heard of anyone hating it. What a shame. Why? I’ve never seen much comment on it at all.
