Tranquil Repose, Necros

Synopsis

The Doctor and Peri arrive on the planet Necros to visit a facility called Tranquil Repose, where the wealthy can have their bodies cryogenically frozen until medical science can cure them of their ailment. The Doctor wishes to pay his last respects to his friend, Professor Arthur Stengos, but it turns out this is just a ruse to lure him into a trap. The Great Healer masterminding the ruse is in fact Davros, who has been using the organic material in cryogenic storage to create a whole new army of Daleks to conquer the universe.

Part One

[Necros]

(The TARDIS materialises in a snow-covered landscape, played by Bolinge Hill Farm, Buriton, Hampshire. Peri comes out, dressed for the weather in high-necked blue jacket and black trousers, and picks her way carefully down a slope towards a pond.)

PERI: I don't believe it. What I'd give for a burger. This is the pits. With my luck, I'll fall in. Ugh, get that.

(She throws a part eaten bun into the water. The Doctor comes out of the TARDIS wearing a long blue cape.)
