The Sea Devils

(Series 9, Episodes 9-14)

Summary: The Doctor and Jo pay a visit to the Master in prison and soon become embroiled in his plot to make an alliance with the Silurians’ aquatic cousins, who really put the fish into fish net.  The prison commander has an unhealthy obsession with golf before meeting an untimely end and the Master is a fan of the Clangers, who appear to have provided the soundtrack.  Jo and Captain Hart make a nifty team, the Parliamentary Undersecretary is the worst person ever and the Doctor reverses the polarity of the neutron flow.

Watch it because: The impressive range of maritime getaway vehicles, including the Master’s audacious exit in a hovercraft.
