10 Most Hated Classic Doctor Who Episodes

10. Arc Of Infinity

A psychotic chicken, Peter Davison covered in Rice Krispies, youth hostelling, and Colin Baker's peacock helmet. Arc of Infinity has it all!

So why was it voted so low in the Big Doctor Who Poll? Out of 295 Doctor Who stories, Arc of Infinity came in at 272, dropping 50 places since the DWM poll in 2014.

Well, despite the dynamic location shooting on the streets of Amsterdam, it's a convoluted mess of a story. One of the biggest indicators of how poorly conceived Arc of Infinity is, is that Tegan Jovanka - an air hostess - travels to Amsterdam to search for a missing relative.

Wouldn't it have saved a considerable amount of story time if air hostess Tegan Jovanka had been on a layover in Amsterdam, where a fellow air hostess had gone missing? That's not even the most confusing element in this garbled tale of Time Lord intrigue and mythology. What's worse is that Gallifrey has all the character, atmosphere, and plastic furnishings of an airport departures lounge.

It gains points for a delightfully hammy turn by Colin Baker, but ultimately deserves its place in the lower ranks.
