Doctor Who (1963) 6.05.05

The Seeds of Death - Episode Five

The Ice Warrior is about to kill Zoe when Fewsham attacks it. He is unable to overpower the alien but he distracts it long enough. The rising temperature gets to the Ice Warrior and it collapses.

The Ice Warrior that was looking for the others also gets struck down by the rising temperatures. The Doctor wakes up. They all go to the main control room. Fewsham helps, the Doctor, James, Zoe, and Miss Kelly return to Earth via T-Mat. He says he will follow them but he doesn't.

The Ice Warrior that is on Earth goes to the weather control station. It kills the technician on duty and then turns his gun on the weather control device, rendering it useless.

The Doctor works with Professor Eldred to learn about the fungus that is is spreading on Earth. The discover that what they need is a massive amount of rain. The Doctor asks Zoe and Jamie to contact the weather station. They head to the station when they can't reach anyone on the phone.

Fewsham manages to turn on the video link on the moon while the Ice Warriors are explaining their plans. It takes the Ice Warriors a minute to catch on to what Fewsham is doing. They kill him and the video link. The Doctor saw it all and knows what needs to be done now. 

Zoe and Jamie explore the weather control station. They find the dead body of the technician. They hear something and hide. The Doctor comes looking for them after he hears that the Ice Warrior that is on Earth was last seen near the weather control station. He gets to the door of the station but it has been locked and the fungus outside starts to overwhelm the Doctor.

Thoughts

I think I'm starting to tire of this story. It isn't awful, for this time period, but it is far from great.
