"City of Death" was one of the best Who episodes ever.

John Cleese was a great walk-on in this episode! The Doctor has parked the TARDIS in a modern art gallery. Cleese is making some comment to a woman on the art of the police box in the middle of this gallery. He says something like "Just by being here, it is Art." At that point Romanna and the Doctor run into the room and into the TARDIS, which promptly vanishes.

Cleese calmly watches this and says, "Brilliant!", in a snotty art critic tone. One of my favorite Who moments.
