Harlequin has grabbed Anne and murdered a butler, as Anne faints. Lady Cranleigh discovers the Doctor, who explains he's found a body, the miscreant returns the Halrequin costume which the Doctor wears. Anne is kept by a badly disfigured man. Naturally the Doctor is blamed after Anne breaks out and accuses him. The Police are called in, and the Doctor's appearance at Cranleigh is deemed to be suspicious. The disfigured man is being held down by Latoni, but breaks free and starts a fire.
It's nice to see Tegan display a slightly softer side of her character, she even smiles a few times, Janet seems to have had fun in the making.
This episode gets pretty mixed reviews, but I quite enjoyed it, I love the fact that it's so different, particularly from anything in the 80's. It's the oddball of the season, as there's no reason sci fi element at all, but Part 2 is down on the opener, it is a little bit more farcical. The Police entering the TARDIS could have been in the Two Ronnies.
Sutton is really over the top in parts in character of Anne, she is much better as the subtle Nyssa.
Part 1 is very good, Part 2 is a little off the pace, but enjoyable enough.
