And here it is the big one, conclusion to the story and the key to time arc serial.
Drax has shrunk the Doctor and himself, and the Doctor's makeshift 6th segment is breaking down, the Marshall and total destruction are edging ever closer. The Shadow has gotten his hands on the key to time, but the Doctor outsmarts him, halts the Marshall's attack, but then has the Black Guardian to deal with.
Sadly the Marshall has been stuck in the same scene for 3 episodes, a shame because he started so well.
The Shadow is useless, what a nincompoop he is, a stereotypical clichéd bad guy, The Black Guardian must have been short of employees. This serial would have been way better had the Shadow been well realised.
I've moaned about the humour several times, but in this episode it works very well, the funny is balanced with terror, it works! The Doctor's scene about having absolute power is fantastic, and brings a true unease.
The Black Guardian is particularly good, a true evil being and a good foe for the Doctor. But why was there no final scene from the white guardian, i've never understood that.
So the point of the last few weeks was.........
Maybe time now for a new take on the Key to time???
6/10
