Liz Shaw is a Cambridge academic and brought in by the Brigadier to deal with a strange meteor storm. The landed meteorites are not rock but plastic glowing orbs. The orbs contain an intelligence that make up the Nestene consciousness, a gestalt entity capable of taking over and bringing to life anything plastic. A famous scene, copied by NuWho had shop window dummies coming to life and shooting passers-by. The Doctor and Liz thwart the Nestene plans to make waxwork dummies made from a special plastic of politicians, put the real ones in Madam Tussauds and the fake ones controlled by the Nestenes in power.

3. Ambassadors Of Death.
An British space mission to Mars goes wrong, the astronauts don't return, but instead three aliens in protective suits come to Earth. Major Carrington sees this as an invasion and teams up with a gang of crooks to kidnap the aliens and demand a swap, them for the return of the astronauts.
The aliens are deadly to the touch, kill with high voltage, and the gang get the idea of using them for criminal gain. It's all a misunderstanding, the aliens are ambassadors coming in peace, but can this be made clear to Carrington before the aliens get nasty.

4. Inferno.
The Doctor is engaged in trying to get his tardis working to escape his Earth bound exile, he is with permission using power from an unusual drilling rig. The Stahlman project overseen by Professor Stahlman is drilling down into the Earth's crust to find Stahlman gas, located possibly near the core. This will be a wondrous new energy source. Stahlman is an arrogant man and refuses to listen to safety concerns. UNIT and the Brigadier are here carrying out a watching brief, and the Doctor momentarily gets the tardis working. Unfortunately it slips him dimensionally sideways to a parallel world, another Earth, another Stahlman project, a duplicate Liz and Lethbridge Stewart. Here the drilling is more advanced and penetration of the Earth's crust results in disaster, including green skinned humans infected by magma and reverting to primitive on the rampage, volcanic eruptions and well...the end of the world.

SEASON 8
5 Terror Of The Autons.
First appearance for The Master, the Doctor's old foe, a renegade Time Lord. The Nestenes are back , the alien consciousness imbuing plastic with life. The Master has teamed up with an incoming invasion force, by preparing the ground for the Nestenes. Plastic mannequins hand out pretty plastic daffodils to the public, allegedly as a advertising gimmick, but the daffodils are Nestene controlled and shoot out jets of wafer thin plastic to suffocate people looking at the pretty daffs. After Liz Shaw returned to Cambridge, the Doctor has a new assistant, Jo Grant, a pretty young woman with a keen interest in escapology, which should be useful.

6. The Mind Of Evil.
The Master is posing as Dr Emil Keller, inventor of the Keller machine, a device to pacify dangerous prisoners. In Stangmoor Prison the device is being tested and observed by The Doctor and Jo. The Master himself doesn't show up, to avoid the Doctor, until hostile prisoners overcome the wardens, and take control of Stangmoor. The Master reveals the machine contains an alien lifeform that feeds on evil, so the Master has invented nothing, just got this creature to remove emotions from the subjects. Nearby UNIT is transporting a ballistic missile across country, and The Master plans to use a gang of prisoners to hijack it and use it to start WW3. The Master well and truly in control of Stangmoor until the creature inside his machine learns to teleport itself at will and pops up all-over the prison attacking people's minds.

7 The Claws Of Axos.
A strange organic like spaceship lands in England, and stranger beings emerge, Axons offering humanity Axonite, the thinking molecule. The Master is aboard their ship as a prisoner, but he has guided the Axons to Earth and promised them a whole world to conquer. Their so called gift, Axonite is not what it seems at first. Allegedly a substance that can end hunger on Earth by allowing animals to grow to enormous size, is actually a devourer of energy and will suck Earth dry.

8. Colony In Space.
The Doctor gets his tardis working and takes Jo on a jaunt. Actually no, the Time Lords have a job for the Doctor so they've temporarily lifted his exile and guided the tardis to a remote planet in the far future.
Earth colonists do battle with pushy mining company who want the colonists removed, and use a robot to kill and frighten the colonists. Meanwhile the Master is here, which is why the Time Lords sent the Doctor. An ancient and now dead race of this planet invented a doomsday weapon, The Master wants it, and lands on the planet pretending to be an Adjudicator , a legal representative of Earth here to settle the miner/ colonists dispute. When the Doctor sees the Master he realises why he's here and who sent him.

13. The Mutants.
This time the Time Lords openly ask the Doctor to help. He is sent to Solos in the far flung future to deliver a container to one of the delegates at a conference discussing whether Solos should have independence from the Earth. The native Solonians are mutating into insectoid life. The Marshall in charge of Solos desperately wants independence plans scuppered so he can keep his job has ordered his science officer to carry out atmosphere experiments to alter the air to make it breathable for humans and toxic for Solonians. This is possible genocide on an unimaginable scale and the Doctor has to stop this. The Marshall is a brutal mad lunatic with power and the Solonians are mutating due to his actions....or are they? The container the Doctor brings can only be opened by the intended recipient, and Solonian Ky is that person. Inside are small stone tablets with hieroglyphics on them, the key to understanding what's happening to Solos.

16. Carnival Of Monsters.
The Doctor's exile has been lifted after the heroics in stopping Omega and as a free agent again the Doctor and Jo aim for the beautiful world of Metabelis 3. Instead end up in 1926 on a cargo ship in the Indian Ocean. A very strange ship this, the crew and passengers keep repeating the same 5 minutes or so cycle of words and actions, over and over. The ship is attacked by a dinosaur , the passengers also only have 5 minute memory spans, and the ship is known to the Doctor, it's the SS Bernice that went missing in 1926 all hands lost. Where did it go to, what's happening and how is this connected to the planet Zeta Minor, where political unrest is fermenting and two Earth carnival entertainers have arrived with their miniscope, a collection of alien lifeforms kept miniaturised in a tiny zoo.
