Doctor Who
The Visitation
By Eric Saward
“Call yourself a Time
Lord? A broken clock keeps better time than you do. At least it's accurate
twice a day, which is more than you ever are.”
Trying to get Tegan home
The Doctor misses Heathrow Airport by a mere 300 years. As you can imagine Tegan is not very happy by
this and storms out of the TARDIS. While
there they discover that there is something alien going on. It seems a ship carrying a group of Terileptils
has crashed landed on Earth. Seizing
their chance to use the villagers fear against them the Terileptils disguise
their robot as death. A pretty good
tactic and very effective considering all the superstition of the time but this
ruse is quickly deduced by The Doctor.
It appears the Terileptils
want Earth for themselves and have been developing a poison that will wipe out
everyone on Earth. This act will allow
them to take over Earth and make it their own planet. The Doctor realizes the nearest town is
London which coincidentally is already being terrorized by the plague. The Doctor must free Tegan and Richard Mace
from the Terileptils controls and then hunt down the Terileptils in London. Of course they have to wait for Nyssa to get
rid of a certain robot that seems to relish its role as the grim reaper.
