Spearhead from Space

So I finally got around to watching the first Jon Pertwee episode that aired on MPT. It was also the first appearance of the evil mannequins aka "the Autons". They really weren't that different than their recent appearance. Their faces might look a little more realistic and they dress differently, but otherwise, if you've seen one lifelike mannequin, you've seen them all, right? Alas the dvr cut off right at the end, when the Doctor and harried Brigadier were discussing "terms". The funniest bits were at the beginning of the episode when the Doctor was getting used to his new face. I couldn't help thinking of Nine in "Rose" looking at a mirror. "Could be worse. Look at the ears!"
