The Baddies feels like one of the Goodies strongest and funniest entries, hardly surprising as it's the first episode of the show I ever watched, only back in 2011.
The Goodies enter competition 'nice person of the year', but soon discover they are widely disliked, unable to make sense of this, they soon find that everyone in the competition is behaving very oddly. But why?
This episode is one of the shows strongest because of its crazy but effective action scenes, the rather interesting whodunnit, and some great performances, especially by the great Patrick Troughton, who plays the crazy scientist Dr. Petal.
The action scene at the end is one of my all time favourites due to a great soundtrack, and just that it's really funny. It's episodes like this that make me sad that there's not more Goodies fans out there any more, maybe there would be if Network or anyone else would release the episodes on DVD, take the hint NETWORK, but as the cast had to battle to get the DVDs we have, and the lack of repeats on TV, will the Goodies clever wit and craziness ever make it back on our screens? I sure hope so!
