Synopsis

The TARDIS brings the Doctor and Leela to the ruins of a once-great city racked by earthquakes, where they find a giant rocket on the side of a mountain. The planet is due to be destroyed by a comet in a year’s time and this ship is the only way off world.

But is everything quite as it seems? At least one person in the city thinks the comet is going to come to obliterate the planet much sooner than people believe.

Which would be bad enough - if there wasn’t a far worse secret hidden behind the scenes...

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

Previous Story: The World Traders

A thought-provoking story that tackles the moral dilemma of a fixed point in time in which a lot of people die. While this idea has been done many times before the concept of other time-travellers interfering is a unique spin.

It's a story that has a lot of moral grey area and leaves you with something to think about.

Well acted and it has Jon Culshaw in it.
