YMMV / Doctor Who S20 E6 "The King's Demons"

• Accidental Innuendo: "You have always been my greatest stimulation, my dear Doctor."
• Captain Obvious Reveal: If hearing the name "Estram" didn't tip you off to who the real villain is, then hearing Sir Gilles Estram speak for the first time makes it blindingly obvious that he's being played by Anthony Ainley.
• Harsher in Hindsight: When the Doctor threatens the Master with his own Tissue Compression Eliminator, the Master rebuffs that the Doctor would never dare use it. During their next encounter in "Planet of Fire", the Doctor would use that very weapon to kill Kamelion. Who was introduced in this story.
• Ho Yay: There's a very suggestive Sword Fight between the Doctor and the Master, and the story culminates in the Master's revelation that he has a robot that he can transform into the Doctor by sheer force of will. Rather than be weirded out, the Doctor uses his own psychic energy to transform said robot to look like the Master. They spend a few minutes simply playing with their new toy, turning it into each other while giving each other long closeup looks.
  • The novelization gives us this absolute gem:
    The Master moaned in undiluted pleasure. "Only you, dear Doctor, can appreciate my art to the full."
• Narm: The infamously blurred delivery of "Your will is weak, Doctor!".
• Special Effects Failure: While the Kamelion animatronic looked very impressive, it never worked very well. This is one of two big reasons why Kamelion never appears again until "Planet of Fire" where he spends most of the serial transformed into other people, then is destroyed. For those curious, the other big reason is that the only person who actually knew how to operate the damned prop died before he could write down the instructions. The prop wasn't a big loss in terms of the show's budget itself as it was not created for the show but already existed and was in storage from a production that never happened.
