Yep, I went for an angelic kick for a bit. I'll be watching the Vashta Nerada two-parter in a bit. I wonder what it would be like if the Angels and the Vashta Nerada got together for a little party.
Ah, the story featuring the very cool Kevin McNally.
Yes, the very same. After re-watching it I was even more convinced that Hugo Lang should have joined the Doctor and Peri in the TARDIS. They'd have made a great team.

Hugo and Peri had good chemistry between them. It would have made for an interesting trio in the TARDIS.

I enjoyed the first 3 parts and about 3 quarters of part 4, but then it just ends so abrutly.
We don't get to hear what the human character's name was (just Earthling in the credits), or how he came to be Zolfa-Thura so that Meglos could take control of him. Meglos had some kind of time technology, but only seemed to be limited to causing short time loops. The human looked more like he had come straight out of the 1990's to me.
When Meglos's base decended back into the ground on Zolfa-Thura in part 4, with his weapon being overloaded causing the destruction of Zolfa-Thura, it also destroyed the Dodecahedron, which was the source of power for the whole of Tigella (a planet that Meglos wanted to destroy). Through-out most of the story, the Dodecahedron seemed to matter to the Tigellans more than life itself. In part 4 of the serial, they don't seem to give a sh*t that the Doctor had used it to destroy a planet and kill Meglos. They just moved back outside of their city, which by the sound of it in the first 3 parts, was the worst thing that they could have possibly done! Part 4 was the black sheep of this serial, where it all just seem to be rushed.
Meglos could have benefitted from being a 6 episode serial instead of it all being badly resolved in part 4.

Doctor: "And what is the question?"
Teselecta: "How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?"
