I really loved this one. Excellent performances by a pretty big cast, a fun and creative plot, and some great moments that look into not just the Sixth Doctor but his entire character history. It was a lot of fun seeing the Valeyard staging all the Doctor's deaths in a play and I though that was so different from a usual story leading up to a Doctor's regeneration.
Chronologically, this is one of the Sixth Doctor's final stories, and it isn't some big action piece or adventure, but relatively low-key, dialogue heavy, and entirely about the Doctor and his emotional state. Jago and Litefoot are delightful but it is Flip who really gets to shine here.
Not at all accessible to new viewers, this is still great fun for seasoned fans and highly recommended for them. I was little surprised to learn this one is a bit polarizing, but I personally adore it.
