The Android Invasion

The TARDIS arrives in the woods, just outside of a small town in the English countryside. At first, Sarah is excited to be back on Earth in her own time, but all is not as it seems. What she and the Doctor first thought was the town of Devesham turns out to be a training ground for... dun dun duuun... The Android Invasion. Now, when it comes to watching Doctor Who, I'm not one to get too hung up on plot holes. That said, I can understand why fans seem to have conflicted feelings about this serial. It doesn't really hold up to scrutiny when you stop and think about it. The ending is a little too hasty, leaving at least one major plot line unresolved. However, I personally enjoyed watching this story. The first half of the serial is a good slow burn and even when the writing isn't up to par, any pairing of the Fourth Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith is still worth watching.
