A pretty poor way to start out McCoy's run, unfortunately, and probably the weakest of his stories. The side characters were decidedly lacking, the evil plan was pretty weak, and even the Rani felt a little flat (a shame given it's her second and final TV appearance). That being said, it wasn't completely without charm; Seven was delightfully funny, and Mel got fleshed out a bit beyond "mysterious companion from the future". (I quite like Mel. Anyone who complains about her screaming too much can pipe down until they've been launched into the air in an exploding bubble, see how well they cope with it.) It's all a bit too much of a farce for my liking, with a flimsy plot, but there are some enjoyable moments.
