(Series 8,
Episodes 16-21)
Summary: Doctor Who gets back to what it does best –
quarries in Wales…er, sorry, alien planets.
It’s the 25th Century, and sadistic commercialists in silly
costumes are attempting to exploit a planet and scare off the humans trying to
colonise it. The natives aren’t happy
about either party being there, but everyone’s plans are thwarted when a
suspiciously motivated adjudicator arrives.
Jo explores different ways to be taken hostage, the Doctor shows off his
mad combat skillz and everyone is a tiny bit Xenophobic.
