Chumblies are the most adorable... I ADORE THEM... like, the Yeti lose a lot of their adorablness when it becomes clear they are robot drones... but the chumblies are only more adorable for being robots.

For the Hartnell Reviews going forward, I definitely want to hold of on doing Mission to the Unknown for a while- I have something planned for that one. In the meantime I think I'm gonna go back and cover a couple of the stories I skipped like Mission to the Unknown, Marinus and the Crusades.

Been watching all your videos- great channel, can't wait to see your content in RTD2 era

One of my all-time favourites, yes. It’s the only story I can think of with - in the timeless words of Diamanda Hagan - ‘a race of man-hating, genocidal, possibly Lesbian go-go dancers.’

Pting bad, Chumblies good, Quarks best.

Anything you bad you have to say about this is invalidated because this animation is adorable and the Chumblies are so cute. And Vicki names them and everyone just rolls with it

"Why does she have to die tho?" "It’s penance for his failure." Hmm, almost like that's the entire thing the episode was commenting on. Wow, this writer must really be into subversive critiques of gendered power structures or something. Steven Moffat? A name to keep an eye on. "Because I’ve never been a 17 year old girl, it’s rather interesting to think like one, or rather to force yourself to consider the world from that perspective. And it actually started to make me angry. I’d never really thought about it before, but you know, when I’d consider the world from the viewpoint of this dynamic, highly intelligent, highly talented 17 year old girl, and think what’s going to happen to her, think about how much harder it’s going to be for her than it would be if she’d been a boy, it made me SO angry."

Excellent video! Looking forward to the next.

I like Galaxy 4

okay... But this wasn't William Emms doing "The Worm that Turned" (two Ronnies from early 80s) as a satire of how terrible life would be under a feminist dictatorship. My understanding of the situation is that Emms didn't write the villains as female, that was a decision made during production and casting.

Well its kind of hard to judge since most of the story is missing.

It's not that bad a story but the animation is really bad I think
