>A lot of british TV was different from our regular North American shows, it wasn't just Who.
True. One of the reason I watch so many old shows, from a number of different countries, is 'cos they're different to me. The British sci-fi stuff always seemed more serious than ours; and more willing to experiment. That's something I'd always liked. Dr Who, the prisioner, Max Headroom....
>they have done a decent job to explain why the tenth planet ones were so different from the trougton and baker era ones.
That's pretty much the description from the old FASA RPG. I think it's nifty how they take the whole, sloppy loose history and USE it. I wish more shows did that, instead of just ignoring or changing the established back story.
