Dr Who - The Masque of Mandragora

Some fine special sound from Dick Mills in places (not least the section quoted above) and a welcome return appearance from Patrick Troughton’s old recorder. Also, when the Count realises that Hironymous, the court astrologer, is plotting against him because his horoscope predicts death, one is reminded of Zizek’s analysis of the “empty speech” of Stalinism, “the object of the science of "Kremlinology”“ (In Defense of Lost Causes).
