REVIEW Second Doctor Box Set 1. Prison In Space

While not entirely original, a story about women ruling the planet, or having any creative use of time or high action scenes, the story marched on at decent enough pace and told an enjoyable enough story. The Doctor and Jamie get sent to a prison for the inferiors (males) while Zoe is sent for reconditioning.
There isn't exactly much here to praise, but there's less to pick at. It was okay, with some pretty good performances. The highlights probably being when Jamie and The Doctor (in seperate occasions) both suddenly realise they didn't get the not so subtle hints they were been given. And given that those are highlights, you can imagine how so averagely non-exciting the rest is. The only downside I can say about this, besides there being any real presence of an upside, is that this story was given over to two discs.

Score - 4/7
