I know many consider Varos as the Best of Colin's era, but I've always found it a bit too bleak for my taste. same with Martin's sequel Mindwarp.
The Two Doctor's on the other hand is a lot of fun! it has Pat and Fraser of course, and one of my personal favorite villains of the 80's Shockeye o' the Quauncing Grig!
