Series 5 also gave us Lord Fear, Sylvester Hands, Scarkill, spyglasses and scrolls. The only thing that doesn't make it one of my absolute favourite series is that it moves rather slowly sometimes. Series 6 changed all that, of course. Thinking about it, series 5 was an even braver move than series 4 because of all the changes. It was radically different from what was being done as little as two years previously.
