The more droning and emotionless voice, the way the mouth has a flap to it, opening up every time the cyberman speaks like a prison door, the way the face has no features but is just a blank smooth head, almost head sculpt like.

This story is really the first "true" Troughton story. Power was the handover and Highlanders and Underwater Menace were the Hartnell holdovers but Moonbase was the first definitive take on the Second Doctor. He's got his iconic "Some corners of the universe" speech and is sneaky but human, intelligent yet acts like a goofball. And it's the first true blue base under siege that defined the format to the present day. It's rough around the edges but it's a very important story for the show.

08:55 I feel the urge to mention that this scene is actually completly scientifically sound. Since there is only one atmosphere of pressure difference and closing that hole with anything to seal the difference will work immediately. It's a myth that the pressure is so strong that it would suck you out with great force. Other than that amazing video my dude! :)
@sk1ppman2 жыл бұрын
Exactly. Films tend to show things getting spaghettified when there's a minor hull breach. In space you don't get sucked out, you get pushed out by depressurization. The less atmosphere, the less force.
@badbeardbill99562 жыл бұрын
Well 1 atm is near 14 psi, so there’s 14 lbs of load on the piece for every square inch. For that size hole though it would probably work, assuming it’s decently flat as well the pressure actually seals it back or very nearly does.
@ThanhTriet6009 ай бұрын
I was thinking the same thing. Granted, the weather control machine in this episode is completely ridiculous. If it worked the way they were using it to stop the Cybermen, they would all be dead the first time they turned it on... The gravitational field they'd create with it would shatter the glass and send them all out into space without suits. If they want something like this to be realistic, it should just be a satellite that they control from a base far away from it. I can't get mad considering this was made before the moon landing in real life, but I also can't ignore the bad science.

Just like with The Tenth Planet, I think you’re underselling the historical importance of this story in terms of the “base under siege” format. While that story was the first of its kind, The Moonbase is the first time they reuse that setup. It may appear today as an average base under siege story but it was really like a mission statement for the Troughton era, especially considering that Innes Lloyd used to it promote a sort of relaunch of the show and the fact that nearly every story in Season 5 and elements of the rest of Season 4 were crafted in the base under siege mold.

@@bendream544 Not really. It takes place in a “base” (more of a colony) and the Daleks use that to multiply and kill lots of people, but the main conflict is not just the monsters doing a siege on the base. It’s very much about the political tensions of the colony and humans using the Daleks against each other for their own gain. Plus, it takes very little influence from the Tenth Planet and very few later stories try to imitate it. The Moonbase, Tomb of the Cybermen, The Web of Fear, Fury from the Deep, etc. are much more similar to the Tenth Planet than they are to Power of the Daleks.
