The lighting on the robot as he leans in on Toos is almost Bava-esque

I've been in similar restraints before....
Not quite so many clothes !

I don't get the criticism you hear of Zelda performance
She's spikey, icy and entitled

Louise's line delivery in this exchange is chefs kiss.
As is Russell's

Brilliant dialogue
It's a great Dudley score as well.
It is Dudley isn't it ?
The moody music when the #RobotsOfDeath are going about just doing..... doing stuff .....
#TheFilmCrowd
Brian Croucher should have brought this grit to his Travis
Plus his butch crop cut !
Add the leathers to it and.... 'swoon!'

Also is this the most diverse cast in classic Who?
Who drove that ?
Boucher ?

Are the Robots the best designed ones, certainly face wise, in the whole of Who history ?

I wasn't happy about Leela as a kid.
To me she'd pushed Sarah out of the show.
But as an adult I adore her performance, especially the early stories #TheFilmCrowd
#RobotsOfDeath
What is it about Pamela Salem that is so beguiling ? I had and have such a crush on her
Also how the hell wasn't she a major star.
An ITC lead or something #TheFilmCrowd
#RobotsOfDeath
That opening story of the rogue robot is a brilliant piece of world building.
Tells you so much in a few lines of dialogue #TheFilmCrowd #RobotsOfDeath
And it's up. Troubled robot servitude in a visually pleasing story. Check it out!๐ต๐ค

It's actually a Super VOC from Storm Mine 4 and I claim my five pounds ๐
