I love that the Doctor’s name reveal in Armageddon factor was so blasé and abrupt that classic who retconned it 10 years later to being a nickname.
Then new who is all like, “A name is a promise,” and making a massive deal that River knew it.
Meanwhile Drax is over here like, “HEY THEET!”

I was rewatching Armageddon Factor, and then I went and wrote another fic. I’ve never written Four or Romana before, so I hope I got their voices right. I know there are tons of theories about Romana’s regeneration, but I don’t know what they are, I just went and wrote my headcanon. idk if it lines up with any of the generally accepted explanations.
The Armageddon Factor is an odd story. It contains the most anticlimactic end to the Key to Time arc but it also has a brilliant Tom looking and acting insane moment (also at the end). It’s very, very padded and cheap looking, but it has many entertaining parts. So here are a few photos from it.
Side note: I wish I had Mary Tamm’s dress and her figure so I could wear the dress.
Watched The Armageddon Factor
Drax was ridiculous. Loved him. And K-9 was a star. I just loved the mad grin the doctor sported at the end, and we see the origin story of the randomizer. XD
For the 16th season of classic Doctor Who they decided to have an over reaching seasonal arc called the Key to Time. In it The Doctor and his companion Romana must collect six keys for a mysterious White Guardian in order to restore balance to the universe. They keys are hidden across time and space (of course).
I love the idea of a long arc like that, but unfortunately they incorporated it very poorly. Essentially the season tells its usual set of multi episode stories with The Doctor running about having adventures but with the various keys more or less tacked on as an after thought.
The final story, The Armageddon Factor spends a little more time sussing out the larger concept, but just barely and its got an ending that is so disappointing I’d be hard pressed to find a more miserable seasonal closer.
The Doctor and Romana land on a planet that is involved in a long and costly war with a nearby planet. They have a little fun with that story for a bit until they discover a third “evil” planet ruled by “the Shadow” who turns out to be an agent of the Black Guardian. More stuff happens. Most of it not that interesting.
They jury rig the last piece of the Key to Time in order to stop nuclear annihilation. That’s actually a lot of fun as the broken key can’t hold the weapons in place for too long so they sit in an increasingly larger time loop. But they waste so much of the story showing us the countdown clock over and over again it winds up being disappointing.
Its really not a great story and it caps off a fairly disappointing season. Still, I can never be too hard on these Classic Who episodes and there are some fun bits including a few scenes where K-9 has to pretend that The Shadow is his real master.

It’s ARMAGEDDON FACTOR day on TODWS.

I would totally wear Romana’s outfit to work.
I am in love with this dress.
Watching an episode of old-school Doctor Who with the husband. It's a Tom Baker episode called "Armageddon Factor." I've become absolutely fascinated with Romana's wardrobe in general, but this dress she's wearing... holy wow.
I tried to find a screenshot but none of them are clear enough (though I did find an absolutely stunning cosplay replica). It's the one she's wearing in this trailer for the episode.
I'd want the skirt a bit longer because I don't have legs (or boots) like hers, but otherwise, I would wear the hell out of that. Anyone know where I can get one?
