The Doctor Has Been Framed! | Black Orchid | Doctor Who

[@oldoldmeme]

This is one of the most completely batshit insane episodes of the show and I love it.

[@anastasiaaa_a1]

It's my comfort episode, haha

[@JordanShortman]

Black Orchid is one of my favourite 5th Doctor adventures. It’s a nice quiet little runaround for the characters between The Visitation and then the epic Earthshock! And gives Sarah Sutton a time to shine! Series 19 has always been a firm favourite of mine!

[@johngurnhill8743]

One of my favourite episodes

[@michaelpuglisi6767]

The Doctor, having not put the costume on until very recently, instead decides his best line of defense is to hypothesize the existence of another costume

[@leonbrocklehurst5844]

One of my favorites.

So underrated

*Who thinks Peter Davison will return in the 60th anniversary?? Seems to be a few hints pointing towards it...*

[@gsam2021]

It's because yesterday was the 40th anniversary of Black Orchid

[@SephoraBloons]

@@gsam2021 that makes sense. Still think he may return though

[@alyzu4755]

Fingers crossed!

[@hammike92]

It wouldn't be cricket 😅 love it

[@--legion]

I like these earth-bound adventures. Pity it's only two episodes.

[@FatNorthernBigot]

I’m a Dr Who fan, from the classic Drs to erm… half way through Matt Smith, but with the best will in the world, this is subpar. Sod it, I’m rewatching genesis of the daleks.

that woman's voice makes me feel like I'm getting acupuncture in my ears by angry scorpions

[@Foebane72]

I remember the novelisation of this story, and it implied that the Doctor could be hanged for murder, and as his companions, Adric, Nyssa and Tegan would be seen as accomplices and join the Doctor on the gallows.

[@mikemarchese7548]

I was a 12 year old boy when Sarah Sutton started playing Nyssa on Doctor Who in 1981 when she was 19 years old. I had extremely powerful romantic feelings for her after Lalla Ward left the show. Now as a 53 year old man I'm back in love with her as Nyssa. I want to bring Nyssa into our world. I have been working on the kind of symbol font computer program that can actually do that with the Doctor Who Nyssa action figure or figurine!!!

[@colemacgrath2005]

That’s awesome, please update me on your invention

[@greatreset3]

Who????? 😎

[@JustJames83]

Why did he have to wear that clown outfit though??

[@poopypoopfartface]

It was the original drip

[@michaelpuglisi6767]

Don’t forget to bring a costume to the costume party or you’ll just have to take whatever they have without complaints

“ This man attacked me and then killed James. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. “ “ Is this the reason that you wish to remain incognito? No, of course not. What is your name? That's a very difficult question. Have you any means of identification? No, I've never needed any. Fortunate man. Just exactly who are you and what are you doing here? I'm afraid if I told you, you wouldn't believe me. I am the Chief Constable of this county and you, sir, are under suspicion of murder. I'm a Time Lord. A what? I told you. Try again. I travel in time and space. I have a time machine. You've read H G Wells? I know of him, of course, yes. He writes fiction. Lady Cranleigh, please help me. “ “ I don't believe it. The Doctor would never do a thing like that. We can all speak for him. Yes. Miss Talbot was a witness. Her word against his. “
