Oh, yes, I meant Face, not Planet of Evil (too many evils), so I have seen it and like it. Thanks for the recs for Sunmakers and Fendahl, because other than the one's I've mentioned I've only tried to watch Talons of Weng-Chiang which I didn't love at all.
Invasion of Time on a Worst of list is like not loving Jo Grant! Also, cosmic bureaucrats is the only way Time Lords work: a civilisation that old and powerful yet not either a) ruling the cosmos with an iron fist or b) ascended into higher beings would have to have a strong inclination towards stagnation and a lack of imagination. (Though their interior decoration in Invasion does look like it was created by overly enthusiastic kindergartners in places...)
Poor Borusa was too cool for Gallifrey. He probably went mad out of boredom - should have become a renegade instead. He's not technically dead though, just trapped in Rassilon's tomb, so he could still get some sort of happy ending.
