UP
ABOVE THE GODS: Too many to mention. Highlights include: Tom
wrestling philosophically (and physically) with literal headcase
Davros and reflecting on genocide ("Do I have the right?")
in Genesis Of The Daleks; embryo-faced shape-changers, the Zygons,
running amok in Loch Ness (and featuring in an illuminated tableau
along Blackpool's Golden Mile); Tom dressed as Sherlock Holmes and
beating up a Chinese ventriloquist's dummy in Talons Of Weng-Chiang;
bits of Stonehenge wandering around and – naturally –going
all vampire on yo ass in The Stones Of Blood. Outside the TARDIS,
Tom made public appearances everywhere, submerging his own personality
completely in that of the Doctor's, and memorably appeared in stocks
on ANIMAL MAGIC, telling us how tough it was defeating the Wirrn
("It had a sting so powerful, it could've done an elephant
in three seconds") and other such adversaries in delightfully
dismissive style.
