94. Planet of the Ood - Becoming an Ood
One of the things I didnt expect from 'Planet of the Ood' was for their master Mr Halpen to be turned into one. I would have deemed it as silly if it wasnt done so well. It is a gross out moment, which is something the series has shyed away from since returning in 2005. It is truly graphic, a man peeling off his own head and then coughing up tentacles and a brain. The soundtrack makes it even more chilling. It is quite a horrible thing for the Ood to do, not to mention sudden. Providing you dont think about it too much, it is one of the most powerful scenes of the series so far.
93. The Brain of Morbius Mind Bending
This scene is one of the most prolific and contentious scenes for the fact that we see all of the Doctors past regenerations and then it keeps going! But its scenes like this that get people talking. If it wasnt so tense then everyone would ignore it, like the whole half human thing. Its the speculation thats the fun part. Who would have expected the images to get to William Hartnell and keep going. The bottom line is, we dont know all that much about the Doctor, and exactly how badly is the Doctor losing to Morbius? Also its terrific of Doctor Who to go down this path of actually going head to head rather than a physical showdown, because its clever. The Doctor only had to keep Morbius going long enough to great a static discharge in his big brain tank. Almost at the cost of his own life.
92. Silver Nemesis Doctor Who?
After a couple of years of the mystery deserting Doctor Who, this was the moment that put the 'Who' back into Doctor Who. This was the moment the series got back onto the path it had long since strayed off. Like our last moment, this is a moment that makes us question once again how much do we know about the Doctor. Lady Peinforte has been told who the Doctor really is by the Nemesis statue, the threat of his greatest secret being revealed, is enough to make the Doctor seemingly surrender. Thankfully the statue knows better than to succumb to the will of the Cybermen.
91. Terror of the Zygons - Sarah Kills The Harry
This moment no doubt scared the pants off the kids at the time. Although initially supported by a group of UNIT troops, chasing Harry who is acting very strangely, she follows him alone to a barn, which is all but dark. The Zygon imitating Harry watches Sarah before charging at her with a pitchfork in the hayloft. The look of terror on Lis Sladens face may well be genuine. But the once loveable Harry goes careering out of the loft landing on a piece of machinery, reverting back to the Zygons true form and letting out a horrible, gurgling, cry. Its a mix of relief that it wasnt the real Harry and horror at this squirming creature lying beneath.
