synopsis
In the conclusion of the four-part story "The Curse of Fenric," the spirit of the ancient evil entity Fenric has risen from the sea, determined to summon the Great One and destroy all mankind. It is up to the Doctor (Sylvester McCoy), who had originally imprisoned Fenric some 17 centuries earlier, to dissuade the Great One from carrying out this horrible scheme. Inasmuch as the action takes place during WWII, the audience knows that the outcome will be positive, yet the level of tension is quite high all the same. Written by Ian Briggs, "The Curse of Fenric, Episode 4" originally aired on November 11, 1989.
