Doctor Who: The Daemons, Episode 5 on AllMovie

In the conclusion of the five-part story "The Daemons," the Doctor (Jon Pertwee) is unable prevent the Master (Roger Delgado) from stealing the powers of Azal, last of the Daemon race. It takes an act of awe-inspiring selflessness on the part of the Doctor's companion, Jo (Katy Manning), to persuade Azal not to destroy the world at the Master's behest. But the story is far from over as the Doctor tries yet again to put the Master out of commission for good and all. The miniature shot of a church exploding resulted in an abundance of call-in complaints to the BBC. Written by Barry Letts and Robert Sloman, "The Daemons, Episode 5" originally aired on June 19, 1971, as the final episode of Doctor Who's eighth season. (All five episodes were edited into a single compilation special on December 28, 1971, and it is this version that has traditionally been telecast since).
