30 Day Doctor Who Challenge - Day 11: Funniest episode

This one, actually, is quite easy. Could it be any other than Love and Monsters, in which Peter Kay played the "Abzorbaloff." Admittedly, it poked fun at the fandom, but it doesn't seem to have stopped us. I didn't really like the way Jackie Tyler was treated in that episode, though. 

This is an episode that wove tragedy and comedy together. That lovely community that LINDA had developed cast asunder by the evil Skinner who absorbed most of them into his replete alien body. I guess at least they were still able to talk to each other...

Peter Kay was absolutely brilliant in an episode that was "Doctor light". I also liked the fact that LINDA was referenced in the 2007 Children in Need special where David Tennant and his future father-in-law Peter Davison crashed into each other. You can see it here on You Tube.

    Love and monsters was ruined for me by what happened to Ursula at the end :(

Thanks for your comment. As long as it doesn't libel anyone, and isn't abusive, I'll publish it. I try to respond to as many as I can, but please forgive me if I don't. Sometimes there are just not enough hours in the day. I read and appreciate every one, even those specifically aimed at winding me up.
