Consumer joy: I spam because Who deserves spam
I got Earthshock in the post today. I go watch Adric die now. And die of the heat, but, still, companion death ahead!
ETA: Adric still not dead yet. But lots of sadism and the Doctor flinging himself in the path of a Cybergun to save Tegan's life. And speaking of sadism, they reference that one quite explictly in this episode; nice to know that they were thinking of the children. And they wrote Adric extra special annoying in the beginning so you'd really dislike him and feel really bad when he gets killed.
ETA 2: As promised there was excellent Cyberleader bottom (funny how I didn't notice this before). No Doctor! You mustn't save Adric! No!
ETA 3: Adric not saved and went boom! No loud music over credits. Just sad picture of Adric's star. Bye, Adric. You never had a chance to win the Doctor's love, not with Tegan around.
ETA 4: The commentary for this is every bit as good as everyone said. 'I spent the entire series with my hands in my pockets.' 'Well, you did have a smile on your face all the time.'
