The Key To Time: In 1978, the sixteeth season of Doctor Who tried something entirely new for the show. All six stories were to be part of one larger story - the Doctor's quest for the all-powerful Key to Time, showcasing 'Who at its best.It all kicks off with 'The Ribos Operation', a thrilling story of interplanetary conmen courtesy of Doctor Who stalwart, Robert Holmes. The Doctor meets his new assistant, the Time Lady Romana, superbly played by the icily glamourous Mary Tamm, as he searches the primitive planet Ribos for the first segment of the Key.'The Pirate Planet' is a jokey tale of space buccaneers from then-script editor Douglas Adams. Packed to the rafters with wit and flamboyance, it's a typical jaunt from the man who brought the world a sci-fi classic. Next is 'The Stones of Blood', where our heroes hunt the third segment in a genuinely chilling piece of horror involving a living stone circle.A futuristic Ruritania provides the setting for 'The Androids of Tara', a fun panto-like take on 'The Prisoner of Zenda', with robots!'The Power of Kroll' acts as the fifth segment, where the Doctor faces a swamp moon inhabited by a giant squid!Finally it all comes to a climax in 'The Armageddon Factor' as the Doctor and Romana discover that while they've been searching for the Key, the evil Black Guardian has been waiting for them...The first full season boxset from classic Who, "The Key to Time" is an absorbing, nostalgic romp, and a must for any Who fan, young or old.

The Time Warrior: Journalist Sarah Jane Smith is impersonating her aunt, virologist Lavinia Smith, in order to gain access to a research centre where top scientists are being held in protective custody while UNIT investigates the disappearance of a number of their colleagues.
