This one moves at a crazy fast pace, like it's been sped up. Perhaps the director knew they had a lot of script to get through and not enough time to get through it.
I like the northern England setting. Leela is intelligent and outwits a local which is nice to experience. Tom is clearly enjoying the comedic tone of the story - it's a great romp! Amongst other things the doctor and leela get stuck in the belly of a space worm. The reveal of the Beevers master works well but it could have been built up a little more.
Overall it is quite a fluffy first part to the finale of Tom Baker's first season at BF. Looking forward to seeing if my perspective of this story changes after part 2.
