Doctor Who - The Invasion Of Time
Stars: Tom Baker, Louise JamesonSummary: The Doctor returns to his home planet of Gallifrey and claims the presidency of the Time Lords. Leela suspects he is acting out of character and it is soon revealed that the doctor has in fact been planning all along to outwit the Vardans and Sontarans...

A story plucked from the Tom Baker era of Doctor Who, The Invasion Of Time sees the Doctor heading back to Gallifrey, with Leela in tow (for the last time). His intention is to claim the presidency of the Time Lords, but some erratic behaviour (for a change!) sets a few alarm bells off. And when the Sontarans and Vardans appear on the scene, all hell seems set to break loose.
It’s fair to say that The Invasion Of Time has its problems, and even the more devoted of Doctor Who fans rarely ranks it in their top 20. The cheaper-than-usual looking Vardan monsters don’t help, and when the Sontarans arrive they’re arguably in the weakest shape they were ever seen in on the show.
But that’s not to say that The Invasion Of Time is without a good few merits. Baker is on terrific form here, and any episode that explores the Tardis and Gallifrey in a little more depth always has worth to it.
The Invasion Of Time has also been given the two-disc special edition treatment, and the copious extra features don’t disappoint. Classic Doctor Who double DVDs have a strong reputation for being superb special editions, and the same is again true here.
So while The Invasion Of Time is no classic (and, in fact, is far from it), it's still an interesting entry into the heritage of the good Doctor, and a feast for fans of the show. Perhaps a better story for the next DVD releases though, please… --Jon Foster
