* StrangledByTheRedString: Leela decides to stay on Gallifrey and marry the guard Andred. There's been nothing romantic between them. While the actors tried to suggest attraction in the story with their acting, the script didn't give them much to work with. It was basically, Doctor: "Come on, Leela, let's go." Leela: "No, I'm going to stay here and marry Andred." Doctor: "Okay, bye." This happened because Creator/LouiseJameson told the producer she was leaving at the end of the season, and he kept trying to change her mind.

* HamAndCheese: The story had NoBudget, catastrophic SpecialEffectsFailure, enforced LighterAndSofter tone, truly awful BBCQuarry sets, a mediocre script hinging on an 'event' most people wouldn't care about and a very angry Creator/TomBaker who felt that his show was imploding and [[CreatorBreakdown was struggling with his personal life]]. The kicker is that the script required him to [[ObfuscatingInsanity act like an insane megalomaniac]], which he pretty much was even out-of-character at that point. The result is the biggest, loudest, most swivel-eyed and self-indulgent overacting a Doctor has ever been responsible for, with much of his dialogue [[AsideComment openly addressed to the camera]]. Depending on how funny you find him, it's either making a washout story hilariously watchable or the worst thing in his whole tenure.
