The Leisure Hive by David Fisher is a mixed bag. The legend came toward the waste of the Tom Baker years, after Tom had begun to rely increasingly on his personal style of comedy (which I personally deem is brilliantly laughable) . Tom ad-libbed many of his lines by this point, and some Doctor Who directors found him somewhat difficult to work with. Some, such as John Nathan-Turner, had begun to feel that Doctor Who, once a sci-fi exhibit fat of ideas, had slowly become “The Tom Baker Demonstrate,” a half-hour pop culture phenomenon in which Baker pranced around and cracked jokes. When John Nathan-Turner took over as producer (I enjoy The Leisure Hive was his first yarn as producer), having felt that Doctor Who had become too jokey and comical for its contain favorable, he immediately had some changes to acquire. First, K9 was killed off instantly. Many people, including Tom Baker, did not like K9, and some felt that the robot dog only made the expose more childlike. Nathan-Turner wanted to collect the explain benefit to its roots a bit, placing greater emphasis again on the sci-fi element of the indicate. Further, he wanted the sci-fi in the present to extend beyond mere gobbledygook, hopefully incorporating ideas from dependable science. Hence all the tachyon talk in The Leisure Hive. Tachyons are right hypothetical constructs from physics, and Fisher’s myth faded the idea to pleasant accomplish.

However, as I said at the beginning, The Leisure Hive is a mixed bag. Though the sage is very good; unfortunately its execution is somewhat shoddy. As stated above, many had complained that Tom’s humor was getting in the diagram of the show; I however believe that his humor was fraction of his character, and never found that it got in the plan of anything. His wit and ad-libbed banter, and his worthy ability to rewrite parts of the script in his head on the place, were edifying assets. His dialogue was often better than what was written, and, again, the man is unprejudiced uninteresting laugh-out-loud hilarious. Interestingly, the episode the many refer to as evidence that Baker’s Who had become too jokey, Nighmare in Eden, was actually a colossal yarn about drug spend with some very adult aspects to it, but I digress. Recreate his character a bit they did, including giving him his modern, mountainous, burgundy outfit with ever larger scarf. Not a dreadful change, I must admit. This is also the first episode to feature the “starburst” opening, complete with the novel title music by Peter Howell, who had been told that what was wanted was something that sounded more like dance music.

Now, what’s depraved with The Leisure Hive? Well, for starters, a huge irony occurred. Producer John Nathan-Turner wanted to “update” the show; he conception grand of it looked dated and he wanted to “bring it into the eighties.” The irony is that many of the changes they made to “update” the effects really only further dated the indicate! For example, the recent synthesizer music by the BBC, though some of it was quite splendid, seemed, compared to films today, great more dated than Dudley Simpson’s previous scores. The Leisure Hive producers also spent a lot of money on a modern computer process called Quantel, which gave us all those effects of heads and arms and whatnot separating from bodies in the regenerator. Though this was doubtlessly very cutting edge at the time, it looks very dreadful today, poorer even that many special effects found in powerful older episodes of Doctor Who. The special effects in The Pyramids of Mars, for instance, a mighty older episode, are worthy better than in The Leisure Hive. (It must be added though that budget cuts had something to do with that.) The outfits for the reptile speed of the Foamasi are downright poor, some of the worst in the whole history of Doctor Who. If one looks closely at these sizable fabric beasts one can actually glimpse the human actor’s face through the holes in the reptile’s head.

Fans of Who shouldn’t invent issues out of the effects though. The awful special effects I have always felt only added to the charm of the point to, and may have even kept the show’s quality up there in terms of forcing writers to write around budget difficulties. The mammoth predicament with The Leisure Hive is that it is actually monotonous, which is never a word I usually associate with Doctor Who, one of the most luminous and extraordinary shows in television history. It makes one yearn for the Hinchcliffe/Holmes years, which brought us such goodies as The Seeds of Doom and The Talons of Weng-Chiang. It is captivating that hot head Nathan-Turner wanted to assume the present benefit from Tom Baker, and yet, it was in Nathan-Turner’s hands that the indicate ultimately fell apart. He was producer for far too long.

Romana on Argolis: “It’s the first of the leisure planets. In relative Earth Date 2250, there’s a ugly war against some reptile people called the Foamasi. Most of the planet gets wiped out by two thousand interplanetary missiles, but the survivors produce a recreation center called a Leisure Hive. And there’s something called an experiential grid. Cells of different environments designed to make physical, psychic, and shining regeneration.”

After not only missing the opening of the Brighton Pavilion but also getting the century and season foul, the Doctor and Romana go to Argolis in 2290, forty years after that bad war, and become eager in the intrigues of the native Argolins. Bookings to their hive are disastrous, as other leisure planets have anti-gravity swimming pools and rush learning. Brock, the initially pessimistic Earth agent who advises the Argolins to do something about their cash wobble, accepts the status on the Board, but recommends they sell the planet and hive to the Foamasi, their aged enemies, of which the Argolin survivors detached have bitter memories. After all, selling them their maintain planet would be the ultimate defeat. Things have a chance when Hardin, an Earth scientist and lover of Argolin Chairwoman Mena, claims to have found a better utilize of tachyonics–to manipulate time.

The main attraction of the hive is the Tachyonic Recreational Grid, hurry by the youthful Pangol. The science of tachyonics, the manipulation of faster-than-light particles, involves temporary duplication of any physical object, and the manipulation of the duplicate object without harming the new, demonstrated by Pangol going into the TRG and his tachyon duplicate’s arms and head coming serene while it’s talking. Soon, the TRG becomes the plot of sabotage, accidents, and later kill, as Hardin’s assistant Stimson is found strangled by the Doctor’s scarf. And guess who’s suspected?

There’s amazing exchange when the Doctor, Romana, and Mena are gazing at the fair red sands of Argolis. “Radon 222 decays rapid.” says the Doctor. Mena says, “But not the heavy metal dust. It won’t be habitable for three centuries. … Now you understand the purpose of the Hive. … to promote conception between life forms of all cultures and genetic type. There must be no more such wars. Each hurry learns to understand what it is like to be a foreigner.” And the Argolins have the helmet of Theron, a golden hooded helmet resembling a crooked KKK hood as a reminder of what happened to them.

Adrienne Corri (Mena) is best known in Clockwork Orange as the ill-fated Ms. Alexander, the author’s wife. David Haig does a wonderful job as Pangol, being charming presenter, scientist, and Argolin patriot at the same time.

The first fable of John Nathan-Turner’s turn at producer heralded some changes that had some gigantic consequences. He toned down the silliness of his predecessor, Graham Williams, and tried to rein in Tom Baker, whose hat, long coat and scarf are red instead of the familiar brown. In trying to find a Star Wars-style image to Dr. Who, he had the recent digital Quantel special effects customary, as well as an electronic revamping of the theme music. And he even recruited Barry Letts, who had produced Who in the Jon Pertwee era, as Executive Producer for Season 18.

The opening titles are changed, where instead of the bluish time tunnel, there was a galaxy of stars coming towards the viewer, with some in the center gradually forming the Doctor’s face. The diamond logo was changed as well.

A tale on the horrors of nuclear war and the necessity for cultural conception between races, with stylish designs (the Argolins’ beehive hairdo, flowing yellow robes, goatees for men, and plastic statues) and concepts, how Argolins turn from green to human colour when they grow older. A pity that this and the final season legend, Logopolis, are the two best stories in Tom Baker’s last season as the Doctor.
