Line 3: {{quote\|''Death, always death! Do you think I want this carnage?''\|'''Robespierre'''}} For the last story of Season One, we're back in history land with this adventure in [[The French Revolution\|Revolutionary France]]. It's 1794 during the eponymous Reign of Terror, and the TARDIS crew get themselves involved in a ''[[The Scarlet Pimpernel (~~Literature~~novel)\|Scarlet Pimpernel]]''-style escape committee saving aristocrats from the guillotine. The Doctor ends up fast-talking Robespierre while Ian and Barbara bump into a young artillery officer by the name of Napoleon Bonaparte. Eventually, however, they make it back to the TARDIS and, with the show's future uncertain, the first season signed off with the following dialogue: {{quote\| '''Ian Chesterton''' : "What are we going to see and learn next, Doctor?" ~~<br />~~ '''The Doctor''' : "Well, unlike the old adage, my boy, our destiny is in the stars, so let's go and search for it..." }} Watch episodes 1-3 and 6, along with reconstructions<ref>A fanmade attempt to "recreate" missing episodes using surving footage, [https://web.archive.org/web/20130817053642/http://www.recons.com/glossary/telesnaps.htm telesnaps] and other sources</ref> of episodes 4 and 5 [http://www.dailymotion.com/playlist/x1jwk8_matrixarchive_the-reign-of-terror here]. The BBC has announced a DVD release with episodes 4 and 5 animated. === Tropes === * [[Bavarian Fire Drill]]: The Doctor, of course, with enough plumes in his hat to overshadow all of Broadway. Line 26: * [[Reign of Terror]]/[[The Revolution Will Not Be Civilized]] * [[Reverse Mole]]: Stirling * [[Shut UP, Hannibal]]: One of the men come to arrest Robespierre shoots Robespierre in the jaw when he tries a [[Hannibal Lecture]]. * [[Stock Episode Titles]]: 10 uses. Justified, in that this episode is about, well, [[The French Revolution\|the Reign of Terror.]] * [[Well -Intentioned Extremist]]: Robespierre * [[The X of Y]] {{reflist}} [[Category:Doctor Who (TV)/Recap]]▼ [[Category:Doctor Who S 1 E 8 The Reign Of Terror]]▼ [[Category:Recap]] ▲[[Category:Doctor Who ~~S 1 E 8 The Reign Of Terror~~]] ▲[[Category:Doctor Who ~~(TV)~~/Recap]]
