Massively entertaining - though admittedly not always for the right reasons. Quite a good episode if you like a Stuntman Drinking Game - Kirk's & Spock's (quite convincing) doubles provide several opportunities for a tipple. Magic moment: when it looks like the Gorn is about to break into a medley of Rodgers & Hammerstein showstoppers. And what the hell is he/it wearing? Something from The Great British Sewing Bee's transformation round, perhaps. I don't get the references I'm afraid. If this is Edward III, he hasn't yet convincingly outwitted his mother and her lover, or made war on France. Fair point. But let's not forget the classic episode where Kirk reacts badly to the seizure of Ponthieu and Spock brings his impeccable logic to bear on the issue of agnatic succession.

It's times like these when you wonder if anyone is likely to recreate the death of Edward III....: Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!

The version of 'Tomorrow is Yesterday' where the Enterprise hoovers up Edward III, or indeed any of the Plantagenets, rather than Captain Christopher really would be the very definition of must-see TV.
