It had the lowest budget of Colin Baker's overall impressive opening season, and was a story that barely filled its own second fifty-minute episode. Nonetheless, there's a lot of good things to enjoy about Timelash, especially in its first part, and most notably with its villains, comprising the late, great Paul Darrow's Richard III camping-up as Tekker; the strange and unique humanoid alien robot servants, and Robert Ashby's memorable half-human/half-alien reptile- the Borad, whose appearance would, in the Doctor Who universe, inspire the work of TARDIS stowaway H.G. Wells.
