Episode 43 : The Unicorn and the Wasp

For the Tenth Doctor and Donna, there’s always time to crash a party, doubly so when it’s a party in 1926. It gets even better when the they discover the great mystery writer Agatha Christie is at the party and they arrive just in time to land in a murder right out of a game of Cluedo. Just to add to the fun, both The Unicorn and the Wasp are running around, and Ms Christie is due to go missing that very evening.

Episode 41 : The Robots of Death

The Fourth Doctor shows his usual impeccable timing as he and Leela arrive onto a giant sandminer when the crew starts turning up dead. With a name like The Robots of Death you can guess that the robots are the ones doing the killing. Not that such a thing should even be possible, but when did that ever stop an evil madman?

Episode 40 : The Two Doctors

Do double the Doctors provide double the fun? It’s hard to say, but we’ll give it a try anyways as we take a look at The Two Doctors. The Second and the Sixth Doctor team up to fight a mad scientist, the Sontarans and a genetically advanced mad woman (played by Servalan, go figure).

Episode 37 : Invasion of the Dinosaurs

The Untempered Schism returns to London only to find it empty, no one is around other then looters, dogs, UNIT troops and Dinosaurs. Well, you might want to ignore the dinosaurs, they aren’t really the best looking special effect and really they are just a distraction.

Episode 36 : The Talons of Weng-Chiang

Snow and ice might be fine for the TARDIS, but it’s thrown us well of course. Instead of landing in 1970s London, The Untempered Schism has found itself in 1889! Luckily we’re still in London, with lots of gas light, fog and giant rats in the sewers. Luckily Li H’sen Chang is performing at the local theater and someone claiming to be Weng-Chaing is pulling the strings…
