But again, given the [[UnintentionalPeriodPiece time]] in which the serial was filmed, [[JustifiedTrope lots of women across the UK were wearing the same article of clothing to protect against a Biblical-scale swarm of biting insects.]]

* NarmCharm: Male Eldrad is so over-the-top hammy Tom Baker famously can't keep a straight face. And it works! Eldrad comes across as completely unhinged, and thus actually kind of scary.

** Made funnier when "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS28E3SchoolReunion School Reunion]]", reveals that instead of dropping Sarah Jane off near her home in a London suburb (where having oddball clothing and gear wouldn't be so bad) the Doctor leaves her in the wrong city. This is actually mentioned in "Hand of Fear" but it's not until later that we learn she was dropped off pretty much at the opposite end of the UK!

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: Sarah Jane's departure is made slightly less sad by the sheer ridiculousness of her outfit, coupled with the items she happens to be carrying. As [[http://www.scary-crayon.com/spectare/sjsff4/ this blogger.]] described it, "Sarah then exits TARDIS left, clutching a variety of things that seem to be the physical embodiments of non-sequiturs - an owl doll and a tennis racket being the most obvious - as she walks away whistling."
