I agree with all of this - it's such a fabulous episode. One thing I really liked also is how good it looked - I loved the use of film, it was classy and shiny and all sorts of interesting to look at.

If only they'd shot on film ALL the time!

Thanks so much! The Autons are genuinely terrifying in this story. These are no lumbering monsters... they stalk you... and run!
