I just found there wasn't enough humour with the Fifth Doctor, because they were trying to be different from the Fourth Doctor. I didn't dislike him, I just didn't find him that engaging. I've gained a better appreciation of the Fifth Doctor since through his audio plays. But it was definitely nice to see him in Time Crash - I'm glad the new series has now so thoroughly embraced it's past like that in recent seasons. In the first season they were very resistant to acknowledge the old show.
