I remember 'Rags', and vaguely remember thinking there was an awful lot of sex and violence, and Three forgetting who he is in a moment that seemed so unlike him. I agree that it was a curious choice of Doctor and associates to use for a dark, vicious extended homage to punk rock and exploration of its potential to provoke genuine and shocking violence. The Ragman himself was quite an intriguing creation, though, even if I can't see him and Three together without my brain revolting and saying THIS SHOULD NOT BE. He'd have worked a lot better opposite Seven, I think, just because 'dark but slightly ludicrous' is basically Seven's taste in adversaries right through.

I still enjoyed it, though: it's not badly written, the Ragged Army is an interesting conceit, and I admit to a little parochial thrill when the action kicked off in Princetown and the closest it came to the Home Counties was Glastonbury.
