The TARDIS materialises on a planet where the age of prosperity
comes often, and precious jewels line the streets like litter.
Overseeing the citizens is the bombastic Captain, half human and
half machine. Lurking in shadows are the Mentiads, mysterious
cowled figures who set their sights on certain individuals and
claim them for their own. As the Doctor, Romana and K9 become
entangled in local events they are caught between the apparently
insane Captain and apparently sinister Mentiads. But then the
Doctor makes a terrible discovery beneath the surface of the
planet, and realises the true nature of the Captain's operations.
Soon yet another planet comes under threat from the Captain, one
which the Doctor knows well: Earth. Can he manage to save it from a
terrible fate? John Leeson narrates this classic full-cast TV
adventure, written by Douglas Adams (The Hitchhiker's Guide to the
Galaxy), and in a special bonus interview he recalls his time as
the Voice of K9 in the BBC TV series. Also included are colour PDF
files of the original TV camera scripts. 2 CDs. 2 hrs 4 mins.
