The TARDIS lands on a desolate planet, where they encounter a simple race, The Gonds, who cohabit with their Lords and Masters, The Krotons.
I know there isn't a lot of universal love for The Krotons, but I think it starts off really well. First up, the chosen quarry and gravestones look pretty good, it's atmospheric, I'm sold on a barren world.
It's a strong political story, we have the workers, the ordinary folk held ransom to their all powerful, and technically superior overlords. Lots of questions arise, why on Earth would The Krotons be murdering the brighrst and the best members of The Bond race, surely they need them and their intelligence?
The Doctor, Jamie and Zoe are all on great form, Pat in particular. One of the many appearances on the show for Philip Madoc.
Penned by Robert Holmes, you can see there is at least a glimmer of quality in this early episode.
