Legends and superstitions clash with the realities of a murderous alien terror at large, as an isolated lighthouse and its small crew, plus the newly arrived Fourth Doctor and Leela, with a shipwrecked group of near unlikeable passengers, face the Horror of Fang Rock, a genuine great from Terrance Dicks, well made by director Paddy Russell and featuring a then grumpy Tom Baker at his alien best onscreen. The ending to episode three is truly one of the most chilling moments in Classic Who history.
The audio soundtrack LP of this four-parter is available from Demon Records, featuring special linking narration by Louise Jameson.
