Two times Anthony Ainley's Master broke the 4th wall

Описание: There's been a lot of talk about Doctor Who breaking the 4th wall lately, but those of us who've been here a looooooooong time (i.e. before 2005) know even in the Classic Series The Doctor did it, most notoriously in the first (and lost) Christmas episode but we also all know Tom Baker did it several times, and Colin at least once. But nobody ever talks about the part near the end of Logopolis where Anthony Ainley looks right at the camera to say his dramatic line. I mean, it's right there in the thumbnail. And also that brief moment in Planet of Fire where the miniaturized Master looks right at us and chuckles. I know it's not much but no one every brings it up when talking about the 4th wall breaks and I'm tired of it. And honestly, The Master should be doing this more often. He's a complete madman, madder than the Doctor so it would make even more sense to have that ability. Though maybe it is just a Time Lord ability and madness has nothing to do with it. But still, you'd think the Master, especially as mad as they are in the new series, would be breaking the 4th wall like a psychotic Pinkie Pie by now. No I will not apologize for that reference.

Anyway, yes I do believe this could make Mrs. Flood possibly a Time Lady.
And I think she's The Rani and she picked up the gold tooth with The Master in it and she's going to resurrect him for her own means and then they'll come back as a duo and I'll be shipping them all over again even though they won't be my favorite versions and I bet RTD would purposefully ship tease them before cruelly reminding us we're not supposed to and then The Master will betray her and probably get revenge for the nut kick in the process before he gets defeated too and I will cry and fall back on the same delusional fanfic I've been writing in my head for decades now.
Or maybe she's Romana or Susan turned sinister for no apparent reason. Yeah, that's the ticket.
