Notes: The series was only originally granted a thirteen episode long run. With extending the Daleks to nine episodes not being an option, only two months until filming was scheduled to start and a hardly any money to spend, script editor David Whitaker hastily wrote this script in two days the reach the initial episode run of thirteen episodes. It is a rare bottle episode where all the action takes place on one set (as there was no money to build a new set) and it only features the four regulars (as there was no money to hire any extra actors).
Verdict: Nothing substantial enough to make it all that special but given the circumstances it is a decent piece of television. The story rolls along at an acceptable pace and the brief moments of physiological horror are delightful 7/10
