CLASSIC DR WHO FIELD OF 64: LIGHTNING ROUND

OR IS IT ROUND 2?  But I wrongly called all the other posts "rounds", didn't I?  But if we don't call the last section "round" this or that, then what should I have called it?  Beats me.  Well, forget I mentioned that and we'll move along and call this ROUND 2!!!   In cases you forgotted, here is where we stand:

So let's barrel along with the next round of match-ups.  This time around it's the lightning round as we slash and burn our way through this plateau.  In the first level, we got a sense of what each story was so I won't really be synopsizing the plots on this go-round.  I'll be getting into more detail in the rounds to come.  Clicking on the bracket above may biggify it but not much.  But don't worry, along the way I'll provide close-up details of the brackets.  Now let's start with the first division match-ups:
