riverdresses: (5-D • from your arm I expect valor)
I know I'm posting these a bit later than usual & I'm sorry, but ah, here they are!

& before we hop into this week's recaps, I want to take this moment to pimp this totally fab Jamie/Victoria mix that the ever-lovely [livejournal.com profile] nentari recently posted: Hero and Heroine. Go & procure it!

Okay! This week we have the final two stories in which our lovely Patrick Troughton appeared as the Second Doctor, along with Jamie's first Companion Chronicle. Our first story is, to sort of follow the trend of last week, is a multi-Doctor story, namely The Five Doctors!

The Five Doctors )

Now, we come to the very last serial to feature Patrick Troughton as the Second Doctor, as well as the serial that finally, after a long wait, introduced me to the Sixth Doctor & miss Peri Brown - The Two Doctors.

The Two Doctors )

& now, for the last story of the set, we have Jamie's first Companion Chronicle, Helicon Prime.

Helicon Prime )

& that was our last major set of recaps! Next week we'll have the final recap of the great & mighty Troughton rewatch-athon, which will come full circle with the new series episode Midnight, as well as our little wrap-up party!

(O. Did I mention I am now not only hungry, but in a terribly fierce mood for some Two/Jamie porn fic? So I'm confused, hungry & mischievous a bit fangirlish now. At nearly three-thirty AM. Sigh! Only me, really.)

Before my recaps?

My iTunes ate itself again. ::sobs:: & I FINALLY HAD SOME SEMBLANCE OF ORDER FOR MY TWO/JAMIE MIX! Now I have to REMAKE all my playlists AGAIN. UGH. I fucking HATE doing that; it's SO tedious.

Okay, so last week's recaps were rather depressing, weren't they? Endings, beginnings, endings again . . . yeah, pretty sad. But this week, I get to do a surprisingly lighter series of recaps, because we're doing two of my favourites & all of this week's serials have a bit of nostalgia attached to them, especially the second.

Plus . . . crack! Crack is always good. ::beams::

Anyway, this week, I'll be recapping The Dominators, The Mind Robber & The Invasion! & from here until The Space Pirates I believe, I'll be able to watch serials now, instead of just listening to them, or listening, then switching over to a surviving serial.

Let's get started, shall we? ::cheery grins:: First up, we have The Dominators, which, when [livejournal.com profile] nentari gave me the first batch of Two serials I didn't have, was the very first one I tore into, which shall be explained later on.

The Dominators )

Now, why did I rip into The Dominators when I got it? Simple! It was the serial before The Mind Robber & I REALLY wanted to see what led up to my very first serial of Two's era! & as such, now we come to that serial, which I got madly nostalgic recapping, as you'll see. But to be fair, I really do love it.

The Mind Robber )

& our final serial for the week is in fact, my second favourite of the Troughton era - The Invasion! (try & guess what the first is. No, really, try & guess!)

The Invasion )

So, that's it for this week! Next week I'll be doing The Krotons, The Seeds of Death & the audio & sole surviving serial of The Space Pirates.

Then . . . I have The War Games. ::exhales:: Wish me luck, guys?
