my favourite moment in 'pyramids of mars' is when the big titty mummies kill a dude with the power of two pairs of enormous knockers. truly the show ever
Happy birthday, Doctor Who! You don't look a day over 900! What's that? 60? Oh...
Time Ramvent Day 23: Pyramids of Martha
David Tennant stars this week in 'Pyramids of Mars', featuring murderous mummies, ancient aliens, and a good chunk of the cast of 'The IT Crowd'. How would the mummies look in the early '00s? What is Sutekh doing with that hand? And who employs their own poacher, anyway?
sarah and four have this occasional ten-and-rose-in-tooth-and-claw energy that I simply cannot watch without giggling. it’s the casual way they go about sneaking around and picking locks and making jokes with no fear or anxiety and then dropping everything and sprinting when they hear someone coming, clinging to each other as they hide around a corner. there’s something juvenile about it and I love it :)
This is maybe my all time favorite companion-Doctor interaction in the history of the show. It was also the first scene where I saw Sarah Jane when she was traveling in the TARDIS.
It was the first classic serial I ever watched almost 15 years ago, and that "oooh, I know you're a Time Lord" and little move with the scarf has lived in my head ever since. A perfect microcosm of the series right here.
