The Zygons are a really interesting race, let down by terrible plot and the Loch Ness Monster. I’m glad they came back for the 50th anniversary and the 12th Doctor 2-parter because they were much better utilised there!
Oh and 3 times they leave Sarah Jane on her own to get kidnapped!
Very disappointing!

My favourite TARDIS team, some fun adventures
Too short, not enough happens. It’s mostly just running away from a big robot and South Africans.
Honestly, I didn’t get it.
Now this is more like it! A very good episode, especially when you realise this was made before “Alien”. However the alien design was a bit rubbish and Sarah Jane was underused.
“There’s no point in being grown up if you can’t be childish sometimes” - The Doctor
Tom Baker is a delight. The story is a bit rubbish though and the effects are unintentionally hilarious.
What a mess! But a fitting end to Pertwee’s era - my least favourite Doctor so far in this massive marathon of Doctor Who.
Hilarious, and it helped me get through watching Classic Doctor Who, which can be a struggle at times!
Awful, slow, boring!
Dull, slow, bloated with ideas and terribly executed. This one stinks!
Ok so the special effects are terrible, the plot is as mad as a hatter and the Brig *still* has trouble believing the Doctor despite all he’s seen, yet this was one of the most interesting, twisty and exciting serial I’ve seen yet. Sarah-Jane is an excellent companion!
