Re: Reverse the Polarity cures all

Not necessarily - it's only the recent stories that can't be bothered to come up with a decent solution. William Hartnell would have explained it all in a way a child (of space and time) could understand. Patrick Troughton would have played his flute at it. John Pertwee would have taken Bessie for a spin across it. Tom Baker would have offered it a jelly baby. Peter Davidson would have bowled it out (or got Adric to solve the equations while Tegan bored the poor thing to tears). Colin Baker would have made it go crazy. Sylvester McCoy would have asked Ace to feed it some Nitro Nine. Paul McGann would have married it. Christopher Ecclestone would have told it not to get typecast. David Tennant would have raised his eyebrow at it. Matt Smith would have gone all timey-wimey on it's ass. Peter Capaldi would have given it a mean stare and played his guitar at it.
They might have used their sonic screwdriver to figure out what was going on (moreso for Mr Ecclestone onwards) but they all had better ways of sorting it than relying on that blue hedgehog...
