Possibly the most overtly political Doctor Who serial so far, which is surprising since it's from 1966. A.

It was alright,hooked me me in Part 2,but last part was kind of boring,all in all - 7/10.Decent departure for Steven,animation itself was okay.

I still enjoyed it though, and the background animation was really nice, though some of the character animation was subpar.

Another story that proves Doctor Who was political in the classic series. I think this was a fitting exit for Steven, but like a lot of classic who exits I wish there was a bit more build up. I am really interested in picking up the 1DA story where we meet an older Steven after this story. The supporting characters were quite memorable, and the animation was really lovely! If there was maybe one less part I would've given it at least one extra star.
