Seems an appropriate time as ever to comment here - look at the time!
After re-watching, it's Bl**dy good. Atmospheric to no end, creepy and the music fits perfectly. The exception to Russell's poor writing.

So this episode has recieved the highest amount of BAFTA Cymru nominations out of any Who episode - 4!
For the soundtrack, the editing, the incidental music and the writing!

Oh - I'm so pleased to hear it! 8)DT

And, reading 'The Writer's Tale' - it was such a last minute decision to make it!

I watched this again recently, and my opinion changed drastically. I remember initially wondering what happened to the rest of the episode, as nothing seemed to have happened. But my eyes have been opened. The concept was fascinating, and whilst it was clearly done on the cheap, the acting and basic plot more than made up for it!
