The first time I watched The Caves of Androzani, I didn't like it. After a recent rewatch, I have come to realise that this was more due to the circumstance in which I watched it, not the serial's quality: I had been binging Doctor Who really hard and the Fifth Doctor was starting to drag a bit, so I couldn't wait to get to the Sixth Doctor's run. Following my rewatch, I can no longer deny that this is an absolutely excellent, stand-out, serial. It's tightly written and I think that the characters are really well done - I feel that there is some aspect of moral-ambiguity in each supporting character. The first and third cliffhangers were really good, although I do feel that the second was increadibly unecessary. Moreover, I felt that some of the special effects weren't great. Other than that, a great serial.
