I remember watching back in 1986 and remembering the ending back when it was first I was shocked by the way of peri exit from doctor who so unexpected and that's why I've never liked this story very much. Nothing wrong with the script or the acting much can be said for brian blessed over the top acting one of the highlights of the story and the return of sil from vencence on varos and the trial scenes I think the could have been better without that ending. Anyway I have marked this with a seven cause I watched it in hd for the first time as part of the season 23 boxset which I got in the post today

When Garth Carson finds a squirrel puppet from a favorite childhood show, he thinks he's found a nostalgic goldmine. Instead, he soon finds a body and a conspiracy that seems too hard to believe. In fact, that was one problem I had with the book, I just couldn't believe it. The characters were also too thin. And the "comic" part of the comic caper? Not really that funny. I did find the climax over the top yet fun, however.

Murder Was The Case
Snake eyes- is good mystry thriller directed by Brian De Palma.

The Plot: Detective Rick Santoro (Nicolas Cage) has never played by the rules. When he attends a high-profile boxing match with his friend Navy Cmdr. Kevin Dunne (Gary Sinise), as well as Defense Secretary Kirkland (Joel Fabiani), he witnesses a terrorist assassinate Kirkland. Despite a lockdown on the arena, key witness Julia Costello (Carla Gugino) escapes -- and Santoro begins to suspect Kirkland's death is part of a much larger conspiracy that involves boxing rivals and a beautiful stranger.

It was a good movie, very underrated.
