What do you think is the weirdest story?


I've watched all of 1970s and 1980s Doctor Who, and many stories have been almost bonkers in their surrealism, but nothing beats the story I saw tonight:

Ghost Light

Seriously, that is nuts for a haunted house story.

What was yours?

Probably some of the horror-type stuff from the Tom Baker years.

Yeah ghost light is weird and warriors gate

I find this a fascinating question.

In my opinion, the weirdest ones would include The Claws of Axos (Jon Pertwee), The Android Invasion (Tom Baker), Warriors' Gate (Tom Baker), The Ultimate Foe (Colin Baker - Final story in Trial of a Time Lord), and like you said, definitely Ghost Light.

I have never seen it, but descriptions of "The Celstial Toymaker", William Hartnel doctor, make it seem very weird.

I have also read that "MInd Robber" Patrick Throughton doctor, was very weird.

Among the weirdest I have seen were "Ghost Light" and "Warriors Gate".

Mind Robber is a great serial - I'd love the show to return to the land of fiction - it has in Audio form with Big Finish. There's just a lot of things you could do, whatever you can imagine really.
