The Doctor is a bit unsteady after his regeneration and needs the help of his three companions, yes THREE companions, to get back to the TARDIS and rest up a bit in the Zero Room: a nice neutral space that’s not troubled by the normal comings-and-goings of the rest of the universe. One small problem, The Master managed to grab Adric before he made it back to the TARDIS and is planning to use his immense mathematical genius (well, he does have that badge after all) to lay yet another trap for The Doctor.
A thwarted attempt at destroying the TARDIS and its crew, by sending them to the point of the Big Bang, leads them on a mission to get Doc to Castrovalva so he can get the nice-and-boring rest he needs to finish his regeneration. Doc still needs all of the help he can get, so Tegan and Nyssa are left having to literally carry the burden of responsibility and get Doc to yet another mountain castle. It’s obviously not going to be plain sailing when some tribal-looking folk show up and cause everyone to get separated. Now the TARDIS crew needs to reunite, find Adric, and work out what cunning plan The Master obviously has up his very well-tailored sleeves.
An Einstein impersonator invents a growing robot capable of complex emotions and some entitled scientists direct it to commit robberies in Tom Baker's debut serial as The Fourth Doctor.
Here's what we think of C117 Castrovalva
We rate Doctor Who stories on a scale from 0.0 to 5.0. For context, very few are excellent enough to merit a 5.0 in our minds, and we'd take a 0.0 Doctor Who story over a lot of other, non-Whovian stuff out there.

Hey guys,
“More walking through forests than is featured in Lord of the Rings” is A LOT of nature walking. In fact, as I read Fellowship of the Ring, I wondered how the movie would make the wandering in the story interesting.
