This is part of a series of reviews of Doctor Who in chronological timeline order.

Previous Story: Moonflesh

Another really generic and painfully dull story. It really feels like they've ran out of steam for the 5 and Nyssa team. There's not much I can say in favour of this story, I suppose the villain voices were fairly good but that's about it. I found it hard to care about the characters, especially any of the sons. The only time it got somewhat interesting was the reveal of Virna's daughter.

There's technically a new "companion" here aswell but after two really poor stories I find it immensely difficult to care about her story whatsoever. Atleast with Thomas Brewster he brought a much-needed fresh dynamic to the growing-stale TARDIS team. I really hope the next story makes this trilogy worthwhile.
