When the evil Skelloids launch an attack upon the seventeen worlds of the
Generios system, its peace-loving inhabitants face total destruction.
So it's fortunate that the famous traveller in time and space known
only as the Doctor is in the area, and doubly lucky that, with the help
of his pretty young assistant, Sally-Anne, he manages to defeat the deadly
creatures and save the day.
But now it looks as though the Doctor¹s luck has run out.
Who is the mysterious, curly-haired stranger who insists on causing
trouble? What role does the feisty redhead Melanie play in his scheme?
And what have they to do with the sinister alien cylinder approaching
Generios?
One thing is certain: for the Doctor and Sally-Anne, there's deadly
danger ahead ...

Episode One:
In their prison, Mel tells the Doctor that she can’t bear the noise. The
Doctor tells her to concentrate to fight the weapon, but it’s destroying
their minds...
Episode Two:
Mel reassures Banto that there's probably nothing to worry about.
Suddenly, Banto starts to act very afraid as an assembler shouts out
'Humans have entered the storage bay! Disassemble them, disassemble them
now!'
Episode Three:
As the Doctor struggles to free the diamond, Sally-Ann cries out as a
horrible being of Jelly sneaks up on the Doctor and devours him whole.
Banto tells Mel to face it, he’s lunch...
Episode Four:
As the fireworks explode above them in celebration, the Doctor tells Mel
tHat at this moment in time there is only room in the universe for the
one Doctor...
The Doctor: 'I just wish sometimes people could sort their
problems out all by themselves. I mean, why does it always have to be me!'
Citizen Sokkery: 'Anyway, I've spent quite long enough talking to
you to. There's a conga over there with my name on it!'
The Doctor: 'Look at that Mel! It's definitely not me!'
Mel: 'How can you be so sure?'
The Doctor: 'Well I've assumed several guises over the centuries
but always maintained an essential air of Olympian dignity. Look at this
buffoon!'
Mel: 'He looks all right to me.'
The Doctor: 'All right? All right! Florid complexion, nose like a
mulberry, and his figure is positively rotund!'
Mel: 'You're not exactly sylph like.'
The Doctor: 'There is a difference between being big boned and
being portly!'
Mel: 'These corridors all look the same.'
The Doctor: 'No, not to a corridor veteran like me.'
The Doctor: 'I am the one and only, and there's nobody I'd rather
be!'
The Doctor: 'If he's a Time Lord, then I am Marie of Romania!'
Citizen Sokkery: 'Do you mind keeping the noise down up there,
there's people down here trying to have a party!'
The Doctor: 'When science stumbles, force has a certain
finesse.'
Mel: 'Believe me when I'm scared, I'll scream the paint off the
wall!'
Banto: 'At least I never made my Doctor such a pompous bore!'
