Could this be retitled “Dial ‘F’ for Fog?” Jean Simmon’s greedy maid blackmails her employer Stewart Granger with proof that he murdered his wife, kicking off a criminal ‘deadlock’ in a London household. The cold-fish schemer Granger ponders his next murderous move while Simmons enjoys playing the lady of the house — having dared to leapfrog two social classes, she hopes that her victim will respond with kindness, not homicide. This gothic domestic murder tale should be required reading for marriage counselors.

A lavish, sumptuous banquet with Henry VIII. The shooting of the first Harold Lloyd film. John Prescott getting into fisticuffs over flying eggs. Three very good antidotes in Earth history to the traumatic events of The Daleks’ Master Plan. The Doctor could have taken Steven to any of these, but in the end, the old goat takes his upset buddy to…
1572: Paris, where a large group of Protestants are about to get viciously slaughtered. As far as a relaxing change of scenery goes, it’s not The Doctor’s finest landing.
Maybe even recent events have taken their toll on the Doctor. His extended, lonesome speech in the last episode would certainly tally with this. Instead, though, he’s too busy paying a visit to apothecary Charles Preslin. Charlie Boy actually looks and sounds uncannily like Engin from The Deadly Assassin, which probably accounts for his extensive knowledge of...
