Summary

The Doctor and Charley travel to the remote Cimmerian System to unravel the mystery of its sun. But darkness has already embraced the scientific base on Cimmeria IV in more ways than one.

In a fight for survival, the Doctor must use all his wits against a deadly artificial lifeform and an ancient race whose return to the Cimmerian System threatens suffering and death on an apocalyptic scale.

Written and directed by Nicholas Briggs.

An Interesting Story

I really enjoyed this story. It was My interesting because it wasn’t easy to see where the plot was going and how the Dr and Charley fitted in.

I was also intrigued as to why the security robot accepted the Doctor with his two heart s but found Charley as anomalous. (It was annoy
ing that we never found out about why this was the case!)

It was also great that the plot unfolded little by little and how this let your view to change of the characters involved. For me the biggest plot twist came towards the end of the story.

It’s a story that starts off in despair, goes through a series of misunderstandings and eventually leads to a hopeful ending.

The only dislike I have was there was no proper introduction of the story and no ending telling you who played the characters. I founds this a little disappointing. That’s why it only got 4 stars overall
