Doctor Who is the longest-running science fiction TV series in history, airing initially from 1963 to 1989. Doctor Who is about ideas. It pioneered sophisticated mixed-level storytelling. Its format was the key to its longevity: the Doctor, a mysterious traveller in space and time, travels in his ship, the TARDIS. The TARDIS can take him and his companions anywhere in time and space. Inevitably he finds evil at work wherever he goes..

Whoever wrote that episode description really likes the word "where"!

Basis for Dr. Who and the Daleks big screen version with Peter Cushing as the Doctor. Still a damn good watch 57 years after it first aired!
I am reminded of Shada when watching this episode. The Rani collecting the greatest minds is reminiscent of the Think Tank in Shada.
