Have seen The Five Doctors a thousand million times and it never fails to make me flail with glee. Things which especially popped out on this viewing:
* Putting Five and One together for so much of it was a bloody masterstroke.
* I still really like the Raston Warrior Robot and its enthusiastic gay jumping.
* If anyone ever tries to suggest that the Master does not want to shag the Doctor, show them the scene where the High Council explain their 'plan'. The man is drooling, I tell you, drooling! (Though he has naff all chemistry with Three: suppose Fancy Pants only goes for Delgado!Master.)
* Special edition = teh suXXor. The extra doomy ceiling in Rassilon's chamber is quite good. The swirly cone thing is not. And I swear, according to my 8-year-old brain, that at the end, in the One True Version, the TARDIS did a repeated dematerialisation thing which was awesome. (I may be wrong about this: when I was 8 I liked Roland Rat and therefore am an unreliable witness.)
* Zoe's dress doesn't look like bubble-wrap. It is bubble-wrap. Did she wear bubble-wrap in the original series?
* The minute he gets to Gallifrey, Fivey puts on a phenomenal amount of eyeliner. He clearly ran away to escape his inner tranny.
* That bit where there are loads of Cybermen on a hill and no one notices them for ages is arse.
* I slightly hate Sarah. *ducks*
* One appears to not even slightly recognise the Master, which buggers up all thoughts that Koschei resembles the beardy velvety-gloved one. Poop.
* OMG so much hand!porn at the beginning. And how unspeakably brilliant is the bit where One orders Tegan off to make tea, and Fivey sends Turlough too?
* Green & Black's Hazelnut and Currant Dark Chocolate is rather wonderful. (Not technically part of the viewing experience, but highly recommended.)
Think Captain Tight-Pants might have to wait till tomorrow: I have an urge to iconify some high-res handporn.

Also, as spiritedchaos has noted elsewhere, Susan is clearly eyeing up Five. Which is WRONG.
Am rather amused by this - of course the only thing wronger would be snogging a robot version of yourself/snogging a previous version of yourself/engaging in tie!pr0n with a previous version of yourself ;)
(And that's not going into the Doctor and Master being brothers)
Surely she knows about regeneration. Although actually she doesn't appear to know anything about anything, so it's perfectly possible that she's just assuming all that chat about 'he's me, and I'm him' is just one of those things thatfunny old 'grandfather' used to say. Maybe we should be grateful she wan't perving on One.
She reminds me a bit of the Queen in that story, or maybe Princess Margaret. I think it's the dodgy mac, and the air of polite bafflement, and the fact that she might hit you with a handbag if you get out of line.
Clearly Susan doesn't know anything - she doesn't even notice the man she's calling grandfather doesn't actually look anything like her grandfather ;)
It's Princess Margret I think, and her sheer polite indifference when Turlough's making obscene hand gestures and talking about how big it is is just the bestest.
But who wouldn't? :)
