features the Doctor not as hero but as villain. In "Full Fathom Five", we have no back story, just the Doctor (David Collings) and his companion raiding an underwater scientific base where there are Secrets Man Was Not Meant To Know, and the Doctor destroys everything that might allow said secrets to leak out. I was not really satisfied. The most interesting thing about the Doctor is that he is a hero; subtract that, and you can have a character study of evil but it's not as interesting. I felt there was also too little that really added up about the plot of "Full Fathom Five".
