The Myth Fakers (Burying “Underworld”)
Description
There are Doctor Who stories that look cheap, and then there’s Underworld: the story so broke it couldn’t afford a cave. Its vast underground world was instead conjured with experimental CSO, earning the serial a reputation that has survived for nearly half a century. But hold the fumigation! Beneath those wobbly electronic rocks lurk some genuinely huge ideas: the Time Lords’ disastrous first attempt at interference, regeneration as immortality, a 100,000-year cosmic quest and K9 saving everybody with what appear to be telephone wires. Grab your Golden Fleece and join us as we ask the forbidden question: does Underworld actually… not suck?
