The Twin Dilemma - Part Four
The Doctor and Peri are reunited. The Doctor finally meets Mestor. He offers to help him. Mestor accepts the Doctor's offer and sends him and Peri back to help the Twins with the planet moving project.
The Doctor figures out what Mestor is hoping to do, disperse gastropod eggs throughout the universe. He tries to stop him with a frontal assault but Mestor's defenses prevent the Doctor from destroying him.
The Doctor and Azmael work together and destroy Mestor. Azmael dies, having previously used up all his regenerations. Lang decides to stay on Jaconda. The Doctor and Peri prepare to take the twins back to Earth in the TARDIS.
I didn't recall that the twins came from Earth. I thought that they were from some other planet.
I watched this story on PlutoTV where there was no commentary track or DVD extras.
This is not a terribly memorable Doctor Who story. I can see how it would be rated so low in more than one poll. There were no interesting characters in the supporting cast. I kept hoping that something that something about this story would speak to me but it didn't speak to me. It just felt very fake in so many ways.
