C105 City of Death

The Doctor and Romana II help an excessively aggressive detective out of his jurisdiction solve an inter-temporal Thomas Crown Affair * * * The Fourth Doctor and Romana II rather serendipitously arrive in Paris, where they take in the sights and sounds and both instigate and expend the BBC’s full stock of Parisian B-Roll. When visiting the Louvre, however, they stumble upon an apparent plot to steal the Mona Lisa and are soon embroiled in an inter-temporal forgery scheme. Count Carlos Scarlioni is in fact Skaroth, the last of the Jagaroth, whose personality was splintered in time, and he has solicited the services of Professor Kerensky to develop time travel tech that will allow him to go back and reassemble himself. That sort of engineering doesn’t come cheap, however, and if you think about it, there’s really only one reasonable way of financing it. * * * Check out WHOBACKWHEN.COM for more information, Doctor Who TV Serial and Audiobook reviews, ratings and ramblings, and loads more podcast episodes.
