IMIPAK is the latest weapon devised by The Federation, only its creator, Coser, and his assistant have run away with it.
It's a ridiculously camp episode, everything about it is so outlandish, the music for starters is so dramatic, the clothes are fabulously garish, they are all elaborate, dramatic and over the top. The same can almost be said for the story, it does however have a kitsch fun feel to it.
The Clone Masters are a great idea, I'm not sure about the realisation, Kathleen Byron was a phenomenal actress, with an illustrious career, I'm not sure this was her finest moment.
Pearce is also wearing an incredibly elaborate costume, she however gets away with it, if you compare her outfits from series one, she definitely became more elaborate. I'm not sure the others get away with the costumes, poor John Bennett certainly doesn't. Only two years after he had played Li H'sen Chang, what a difference.
Stephen Greif was sadly unavailable, so was replaced by Brian Croucher, I'm not sure you could get two different men, Croucher was not exactly subtle, louder and more brash, but definitely more physical, I think fans would earn to him in time.
It's a little disappointing after Shadow, but all in all, it's still a good watch, 6/10.
