Peri. *shudders* Is Revelation the bizarre one with Alexei Sayle? Most of the 6th Doctor's reign has been blurred from my memory, mainly because I've only seen most of them once (except "Vengeance on Varos" because of Jason Connery and 'The Two Doctors' which seemed to get shown on assorted PBS stations a lot when I was moving around between New York, Syracuse and Phily) and not since they aired or thereabouts. I know it's pretty awful.
Peri in general just makes my brain hurt. I adore Colin Baker as a human being - he's one of the sweetest people I've ever had privledge to spend time around. I cannot say the same for Nicola Bryant and my opinion of her has coloured my already low opinion of Perpugilliam Brown (yeah, sure that's a normal American name...GAH!)
Sadly, Colin got saddled with some of the worst episodes EVER, and then the BBC blamed him for DW's plummeting ratings and canned him. Poor man.
I'm very psyched about "Fires of Pompeii" for a ton of reasons including the setting, the actual sets (so I can make cracky Rome jokes to myself) and James Moran who wrote the episode. He was at the Gallifrey One convention and just very very sweet. and very very quiet. god he just talked like this all the time in rooms filled withVERY LOUD PEOPLE LIKE STEVEN MOFFAT :-) Also Phil Davis is just made of awesome sauce and he's playing a Roman in it so yayz.
