Bearing in mind we're judging them specifically as Doctor Who writers then I'm taking a point off RBS...

...because "Terror of the Zygons" is a so-so story elevated by some strong production values (direction, music AND creature design) into something a bit special; and "Seeds of Doom" is an odd story involving a grim-faced, snappy, violent Doctor who saves the day by blowing the aliens up, and is Doctor Who in name alone. So his reputation as a writer of good Who stories is largely founded on the stories being given such good treatment by the director, and the writing itself is fairly average.

IMHO
