When the Doctor, Polly and Ben visit a human colony that appears to be one big holiday camp, they think they have come across a truly happy place. But a shadowy presence soon makes them realise that the surface contentment is carefully controlled. The colony's inhabitants have been brainwashed by giant crab-like creatures - the Macra. Insidious propaganda, broadcast by the Controller, forces the humans to mine a gas that is essential for the Macra to survie - but fatal for them. The colony must be saved - but how? The Doctor and his team are up against it, particularly when Ben falls under the influence of the Macra. Can he be rescued from their evil clutches? Can the gas pumping be destroyed, getting rid of the Macra for good? The soundtrack to this popular adventure, which was first broadcast in 1967, has been digitally remastered to recreate a very popular story from the Troughton era. Science Fiction Fiction

So like a lot of Doctor Who found my introduction to the Macra was in the season three episode gridlock, but had no contact they were on about then discovering years later that they were originally from this story, and I was dead curious on what happened so I am actually happy the stories audio still exist and we can all hear what once was even with the animation now available. This is still a good story to listen to either way.

A fun story with an interesting idea

It's a shame that we'll never see it on TV or on DVD at all.

It's alright

The product detail is wrong. This is the verstion with a companion providing a naration not Colin Baker. The audio quality is much better than the Colin Baker verstion.
