: The answers:
: 1. Spearhead from Space
: 2. Ian Marter
: 3. The Invasion of Time
: 4. SS Bernice
: 5. Planet of the Daleks
: 6. Polyphase Avitron
: 7. Douglas Camfield
: 8. Aldourne
: 9. Aggedor
: 10. Skonnos
: 11. Omega
: 12. Kismet Delgado
: 13. The Deadly Assassin
: 14. Solon
: 15. Image of the Fendahl
: 16. James Acheson
:
:

And I thought this was going to be easy...I got 9 (and a half) out of 16. I gave myself a half because I said that it was either The Seeds of Doom or Image of the Fendahl for question 15.

Must do better next time!

Anyone else?
