4.0 out of 5 stars Good solid stuff!, 29 Sep 2003
By Andrew Kyle "Fangg" (Glasgow, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
The Nightmare of Eden is a really good title. So what of the story itself? Will it suffer from the same as its predecessor and be brought down by awful monsters and horrific non-Leeson K9 dialogue? The answer, thank goodness, is a resounding no. The plot is great - showing off a level of imagination unseen in present day sci-fi programmes. K9 is now tolerable as when he speaks its only one or two words. The monsters - the Mandrels- are excellent creatures, looking cheesy but scary at the same time. The Doctor is as hilarious and inventive as ever, and the supporting characters all play their various parts in the story with enthusiasm and believability. The allegory of this story is drug-smuggling and therefore has even more footing in believabiity than the pure sci-fi elements of many other stories. Altogether a fantastic piece that doesn't approach the mantle of 'a classic' but is definitely one of my favourites.

3.0 out of 5 stars Mandrel Mash-up, 19 April 2009
By Binro The Heretic "mattieboyz" (Hillsborough, Sheffield) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
Despite being a staunch supporter of Tom Baker's Doctor, and someone who finds it hard to utter a bad word about any Doctor Who story from his seven year tenure, I have to admit that this is arguably the worst story made for TV during that time. The monsters aren't bad - albeit more cuddly than they're meant to be - but the story is poorly thought out and carelessly executed and the design is also found wanting. Baker and Lalla Ward as his assistant Romana are as good as ever, but even they fail to lift a lifeless script and the results are mediocre. I have to say it's worth a watch but don't get too excited, it's average at best.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not quite vintage, but fun nonetheless, 24 Jul 2000
By A Customer
A cosmic collission in deep space unleashes flesh-eating swamp creatures who begin savaging the crews of the two ships involved. Arriving in this chaos, the Doc is drawn into the drug smuggling aboard the Empress while Romana looks into the dubious activities of shady scientist Tryst...

Not one for haters of season 17, Nightmare Of Eden roars along with the subtlety of a Mechanoid in a glass factory, but at least earns laughs through the sheer badness of the whole affair. Tom Baker goofs his way through the proceedings, while Lalla Ward tries to draw attention away from David Brierley's terrrible delivery of K9's dialogue. It's still fun though, especially when Fisk + friends arrive. Expect fun and a few laughs!
