## Doctor Who: The Two Doctors - A Disappointing Multi-Doctor Story

Based on the information from Chakoteya.net, The Two Doctors seems
like a missed opportunity for a story featuring two incarnations
of the Doctor. Here's a breakdown:

**Strengths:**

* **Multi-Doctor Story:** This story brings together the Second
Doctor (Patrick Troughton) and the Sixth Doctor (Colin Baker),
offering a unique opportunity to see their contrasting personalities.

* **Classic Villain:** The return of the Cybermen adds a familiar threat
to the narrative.

**Weaknesses:**

* **Wasted Potential:** Reviews suggest the story doesn't fully utilise
the potential of having two Doctors interact.

* **Weak Plot:** The plot revolving around the Cybermen
and the Dodecahedron seems convoluted and uninspired.

* **Underdeveloped Characters:** Both the Second Doctor and Jamie,
his companion, appear sidelined in the story, with the focus shifting
to the Sixth Doctor and Peri.

* **Unnecessary Cruelty:** The violence and cruelty displayed
by the Sixth Doctor might be off-putting for some viewers.

**Overall:**

The Two Doctors seems like a disappointing entry in the Doctor Who canon.
While the premise of featuring two Doctors is intriguing, the story
suffers from a weak plot, underdeveloped characters, and an overly
cruel portrayal of the Sixth Doctor.

**Rating:** Based on the information provided, The Two Doctors gets
a rating of **4 out of 10**. There are some interesting elements
on paper, but the overall execution seems lacking.

**Additional Notes:**

* Fans of the Second Doctor or Jamie might be disappointed by their
lack of presence in the story.

* If you're interested in multi-Doctor stories, there are other
entries in the Doctor Who universe that might be more satisfying,
like "The Five Doctors" or "The Day of the Doctor."

Less familiar is the way they disguise themselves as Sontarans.

That must be why it wasn’t used in the story at all.
