(Series 19,
Episodes 5-8)
Summary: Tegan seems so determined to get back to
make her flight – she should really just take the opportunity to slack off
through time and space. The TARDIS lands
on a spaceship containing three green crusties with a suspicious interest in
fashion who are on their way to Earth.
They’ve got what appears to be a bunch of kidnapped people from various
Earth cultures throughout history on board but it’s ok because it turns out
everyone’s a cyborg. Adric sucks up to a
power-crazed autocrat just because he calls him smart, Nyssa gets brainwashed
and the Doctor foils a crackpot plan to travel in time and enslave the people
of Earth using poisonous frogs.
Watch it because: The Doctor’s penchant for puns.
