from Who Back When | A Doctor Who Podcast · host WhoBackWhen.com

The "God of Light" turns itself into a cartoon character that, umm, captures people in celluloid?! On rewatch, we offer RTD a lot of admittedly late rewrite options.* * *The TARDIS is still having problems landing back on earth in 2025 so Doc and Belinda are forced to land a tad off course – specifically, by a seemingly deserted Miami cinema in 1952, where unsurprisingly a mystery awaits. Fifteen people have vanished from this very picture house, yet the projector still hums to life each night. Naturally, Doc and Belinda Scooby-Gang into action, and soon stumble upon the pre-credit reveal, namely, that cartoon menace "Mr. Ring-a-Ding" has Last-Action-Hero’d off the silver screen and trapped the poor cinema patrons within film reels. For he is no mere cartoon comic. He is Lux Imperator, God of Light and the latest addition to RTD’s incessant lineup of so-called Harbingers or Gods of Chaos. Who knows?The boundaries between fiction and fact begin to blur, and soon it becomes frighteningly clear that the whimsical antics of Lux put everyone at risk. But just as they're about to put together the puzzle pieces, Doc and Bells are themselves pulled onto the silver screen, where they must face the biggest plot twist of them all: nerds.
