STORY |
Summoned back
to Earth by the Brigadier, the Doctor investigates a series of
mysterious attacks on North Sea oil rigs. Centre of the attacks
is the village of Tullock, very close to Loch Ness. The Doctor
discovers that the cause of these attacks is the Loch Ness Monster,
in reality a Skarasen, a creature half-animal, half-machine,
created by the Zygons, an alien race whose crippled spaceship
has rested on the bottom of the Loch for centuries. Unable to
return home (their planet was destroyed), the Zygons plan to
take over Earth and turn it into a new home planet for their
race. Able to change form and take on the physical appearance
of Humans, the Zygons have infiltrated the village. The Doctor
exploses the Zygons and frees their captives, including the local
Duke. The Doctor blows up the Zygon ship but Broton, leader of
the Zygons, now in London, threatens to destroy a World Energy
Conference. He is stopped by the Doctor. The Skarasen survives
to swim happily back to Loch Ness. |
