"I would suggest, Peri, that you wait a little before criticizing my new persona. You may well find it isn't quite as disagreeable as you think."
"Well, I hope so."
"Whatever else happens, I am... the Doctor. Whether you like it...or not."
-- The Sixth Doctor and Perpugilliam "Peri" Brown, Doctor Who: "The Twin Dilemma"
Back in the TARDIS once again, my partner in time Jesse Jackson and I have returned with a new episode of Next Stop Everywhere! This time, we review "The Twin Dilemma", the seventh serial of Doctor Who Season 21 in 1984, featuring Colin Baker's controversial first story as the Sixth Doctor and Nicola Bryant as Peri Brown!
In this episode, Jesse and I discuss things like Jesse not missing me, "The Twin Dilemma" being the epitome of bad decision making, wondering why the hell producer John Nathan-Turner thought making a new Doctor intentionally unlikable was a good idea, needing a Venn diagram of Doctor Who and James Bond film connections, the Sixth Doctor's facepalming penchant for strangling people, Colin Baker salvaging the Sixth Doctor in Big Finish audio adventures, JNT's love of press attention, the Sixth Doctor and Peri finally getting their chemistry right in Season 23, the need for balance against the Sixth Doctor's "alienness", changes to Peter Capaldi's Twelfth Doctor, the Sixth Doctor not caring if fans like him or not, Mestor the Gastropod being cross-eyed, wondering how the slug-like Gastropods turned Jaconda into a wasteland, Mestor's ridiculous plan to launch Gastropod eggs across the universe using an exploding sun, Azmael getting drunk by the fountain with the Fourth Doctor, Romulus and Remus' game of Space Backgammon, my Reverse the Reverse the Polarity segment, new listener feedback from Paul from Australia David K. Proctor, and Holly from Wisconsin, the new Series 11 writers and directors, the leaked new TARDIS console room, and more!
