For every Dalek, there is an Adipose. For every Sontaran, there is a Rill. Doctor Who is replete with hundreds of villainous creatures and aliens who have fallen through the cracks of fandom’s collective memory. Not so much forgotten, as perhaps unappreciated. Unappreciated because of their design, or perhaps the quality of the story, or a combination of both. Surely, there are one off creatures, such as the Raston Warrior Robot, that were perfectly suited for their sole appearance, and need not return. But there are others, but for a random chance of fate, may’ve ascended to the heights of fan adoration and into the memory of the wider public. The list below presents my Top 5 Unappreciated Monsters, a legion of foes of the Doctor who almost, but just missed, being great. I’d love to hear what your choices would be, in the comment section.
