Doctor Who:
Carnival of Monsters
By Robert Holmes
“Roll up and see the
monster show! A carnival of monsters, all living in their natural habitat, wild
in this little box of mine. A miracle of intragalactic technology! Roll up!
Roll up!”
The Doctor free from his
exile ends up arriving on a ship in the Indian Ocean that Jo seems to think
does not look like Metebelis 3 a place The Doctor was hoping to land on. Soon after exploring the ship they are
arrested for being stowaways. The Doctor
notices that there is something strange going on. For one there is a metal plate on ship from
the 1920’s and since its always supper time it should be dark out. Then there is the dinosaur that keeps making
an appearance in the ocean and well that positively should not be in the Indian
Ocean in the 1920’s.
To make matters worse The
Doctor will soon find out he is trapped in a Miniscope. A Miniscope is a device
that shows creatures in their habitat but they are trapped in a kind of
timeloop thing to preserve them. But
that isn’t the worse part as also inside the Miniscope is the Dragshigs. The Dragshigs are an unrelenting creature
that hunts by smell and they never give up as The Doctor and Jo will soon find
out.
