Rate "The War Games"

i watched this over about a fortnight- hugely enjoyable.

the war stuff is cool, the aliens groovy and the ending terrific.

obviously too long though.

I didn't think it was too long. I never want it to end.

just a word for the dvd- great extras and fantastic picture quality. the package gets full marks

Not man enough to watch it in one go?

Coma-inducing and vastly overated. Times 10. Watch the first 2 and last 2 episodes and save yourself 21/2 hours of nothing happening.

i think you'd have to be insane to watch it in one go

I watched it in one go. I couldn't stop.

I'm not planning to buy this till next year, and will re-assess it then!

Troughton is irresistable.

A fine single malt is irresistable.

You're not my husband are you? I do hope not.

Unless you're Mrs C=O, then the answer is no!

Me and my friend did last year. He fell asleep in the middle. I was caned.

I watched it for the first time ever this week, and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Two of the three 'get captured and nearly shot for being a spy' episodes could have disappeared quite happily though, I thought, and, despite having eight previous episodes, the ninth seems very rushed - almost as if they've forgotten the tenth is earmarked for something else entirely and panic about finishing in time.

A pleasure to watch, however - and the last episode is quite sad (in a happy-for-deep-people way).

Good sackful of extras, too (despite the funny-as-McIntyre sock puppets).

Overall - McCoy out of ten.

I watched it all through in one sitting last Sunday, with a fellow fan who'd never seen it before. We both thoroughly enjoyed it .

Saw this recently and decided that the one thing you shouldn't do is attempt to watch the whole thing in one go.

Much enjoyed.

A big fat Four from me. Although it is undeniably long, I find it well paced, even though there's the repeated getting captured and escaping.
...and just to show off, or declare myself a loony, I watched it all in one go.
Think we did another one afterwards too...!

I've watched it all in one go before. I loved it. 10/10

I watched it all in one go, I never found it to be slow paced either. It's brilliant. 10/10
