Doctor Mysterio and the Silly Lurians

  Serial BBB - Doctor Mysterio And The Silly Lurians -

    In Milton Keynes a secret atomic research centre where a reactor
  converting nuclear power to kinkytron energy is being developed.
  Work is being held up by inexplicable office parties and staff
  leaving for home while the spouse and kids are away.  The Doctor
  traces the problem to an underground lair where prehistoric rubber
  monsters live.  Controlling the tacky beasts are the Silly Lurians.
  Strange men in tacky reptile costumes stolen off the set of Quartermass.
  At first UNIT and the Doctor think these are just a bunch of insane
  perverts with no real connection to the unknown.  Terror comes to
  all when it is discovered that deep in the human racial memory
  is another creature (much like in Quartmass and the Pit).  These
  creatures have been in hibernation for billions of years (much like
  in Quartmass and the Pit) but have been rejuvenated by the kinkytron
  energy.  These true ancient creatures, the Bilurians, want to get
  it on with everything on the planet.  The Silly Lurians worship the
  Bilurians even though they do not understand their desires and want
  to recapture the earth for Bilurian use.  The Doctor strives for
  peace between the humans, Silly Lurians, and Bilurians but he
  refuses to take place in the ceremonial orgy of peace.
  The rebellious Silly Lurians then rush up into the research centre
  and desperately try to seduce the sane humans who laugh in their face.
  They then develop a disease to wipe out humanity.  The Doctor easily
  finds an antidote because he is a clever bastard.  Upset and frustrated
  the Silly Lurians decide to try to seduce the Doctor one last time.
  The Doctor pulls the old "My cave or your cave?" trick and promises
  to be with them in just a moment after he freshens up.
  Now back in the caves - much to the Doctor's delight - the Brigadier
  demands that everything is blown up.

  Fluffs - Pertwee seemed spanish speaking for most this story
           One Pertwee line when translated literally back from Spanish
           is - "I may be a man but sex with reptiles is the sort of
           thing one saves for a special occasion, like no occasion
           at all for instance."


  Fashion Victims - The Silly Lurian costumes are obviously just
                    ripped off from Quartmass and Out of the Unknown
                    and not well stolen.
                    In episode seven the Doctor proudly sports a
                    "Jackson 5" T-shirt
            Liz Shaw's costume bravely explores the realm of the
            mini-mini-oh-please-bend-over-and-tell-me-that-you-love-me-skirt


  Goofs - For some unknown reason this serial was broadcast in Spanish.
          Doctor Mysterio and the Silly Lurians was a strange and
          confusing story due to this until eventually it was translated
          by a bored group of students in a secondary school when
          they should have been in spanish class learning to translate
          better.  Recently most of the mistranslated material has been
          corrected however many copies of this story still have various
          scenes with gratuitous uses of the word "plonker".


  Technobabble - "Never before in the history of man has kinkytron
                  energy been harnessed in a super atomic reactor.
                  If let into the wrong hands the world could be
                  in serious danger.  Quite serious indeed."

                 "In order to control this kinkytron we're going
                  to have fuse the control of the neutron flow!"

                 "Have you considered the addition of K90 in the
                  presence of 3Y5?"
                 "My god!  That's my postal code!  And it's been
                  the answer all along!"

  Links - The Brigadier mentions that the Doctor has always
          been into kinky sex before (See QQ, VV, AAA)

  Untelevised Misadventures -  The Doctor says that he once met
  Joan of Arc causally whilst talking to someone not cleared for
  security in any way and not bound to believe him as sane.


  Dialogue Disasters -

  "We found her paralyzed with fear chanting 'I saw something, I saw
   something' over and over again.   She may have seen something."


  Dialogue Triumphs -

  Dr. Quinn (Medicine Woman): The kinky energy I shall gain is worth
                              any risk!!


  Dr. Lawrence: This is the Permanent Under Secretary!
  Dr. Mysterio: Yes, well I have no time to talk to you, petty
                little single minded bastard.
  Dr. Lawrence: May I ask who you are?
  Dr. Mysterio: No!  Now stand aside my good man or else I shall
                be forced to use my Venusian Akidio!
  Dr. Lawrence: OH!  You're that weird Doctor Mysterio chap,
                 step right in!  We've been waiting for you!
  Dr. Mysterio: You don't know that my good man!  For all you know
                I am Doctor Plonker!
  Dr. Lawrence: You have insulted my families honor!  We must
                 fight to the death!!
  DR. Mysterio: KKKKKKKKKKWWWWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!
   (Note the above was translated by 70s martial arts fans)


  BRIGADIER: Silly! SILLY! SILLY!!  No one enjoys a good laugh more
             than me.  This started out as a bunch of people in
             lizard costumes worshipping ancient reptile men but
             now it's gone all silly!


  BRIGADIER: Blow it up!  Blow it ALL UP!  Blow THAT UP AND THIS
             UP!   Blow up the whole research centre!
  LIZ SHAW: But we're in the research centre!
  BRIGADIER: I don't CARE!  BLOW EVERYTHING UP!  EVERYTHING!  Or
             else I'll be very displeased indeed!!  BLOW IT UP!

  "This didn't seem like real Who to me I'm afraid.  In the classic

  Rumors & Facts -

    Many fans were horrified and confused by Doctor Mysterio and the
  Silly Lurians.  At first it's strange broadcast in Spanish was a
  shock but then when the plot came to light many fans were up in arms!
  Never before had the Doctor had such an invitation to an orgy of the
  damned and turned it down.
    With each Doctor came new personalities and traits.  The 3rd Doctor
  seemed to be moving towards someone who avoided sexuality and sexual
  situations.  Perhaps it was some reaction to his early experiences
  in this regeneration, or maybe, as many guessed, he was just a weird
  prude.  Time would tell how this Doctor would develop and change over
  his era.
    Meanwhile the other characters seemed to be coming into their own
  as well. There was the insane, frustrated, destructive, mad Brigadier
  and the leggy underdressed scientist from Hull, Liz Shaw.
    The new monsters in the first two Pertwee stories were instantly
  popular.  People were wildly offering to join the Nestle consciousness
  and experiment with the Bilurians.  Sad fans gathered in Milton Keynes
  for the first time, dressed as Silly Lurians, and tried to connect
  into the mind of the wardrobe designer to make the skirts even shorter -
  as if this was even possible within the realms of physics.
