In the third episode of the four-part story "Logopolis," the titular planet becomes the temporary home base of the Doctor (Tom Baker), who along with his companions Adric (Matthew Waterhouse), Lylla (Sarah Sutton), and Tegan (Janet Fielding), has been gathered by the Watcher (Adrian Gibbs) to prevent a total breakdown of the universe's structure. The instigator of this temporal outrage is the Doctor's old enemy, the Master (Anthony Ainley) -- who, this time, may have hoisted himself with his own petard. First telecast March 14, 1981, "Logopolis, Episode 3" was written by Christopher H. Bidmead. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
Doctor Who: Logopolis, Episode 2
In the second episode of the four-part story "Logopolis," the Doctor (Tom Baker) tries to repair the TARDIS' chameleon circuit by traveling to the planet Logopolis, a world ruled by mathematicians. Unfortunately, his calculations are sabotaged, and as result, both he and the TARDIS begin to shrink into nothingness -- the first stage in what turns out to be the total breakdown of the Universe's structure. First telecast March 7, 1981, "Logopolis, Episode 2" was written by Christopher H. Bidmead. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
Doctor Who: Logopolis, Episode 4
In the conclusion of the four-part story "Logopolis," the Master (Anthony Ainley) is revealed to be the cause of the breakdown of the universe's entire structure. Caught in his own trap, the Master must rely upon his old enemy, the Doctor (Tom Baker), for his survival -- thereby creating one of the uneasiest alliances since the days of WWII. As the episode rushes to a close, the Doctor undergoes yet another of his periodic regenerations, obliging the series' fans to bid farewell to star Tom Baker after seven years' worth of episodes.
