Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The title character in this four-chapter Doctor Who adventure is the last survivor of the Zolfa-Thuran civilization.

Jacqueline Hill, who'd played the Doctor's traveling companion Barbara Wright in the earliest episodes, guest stars as Lexa, leader of the Deon race. Written by John Flanagan and Andrew McCullough, "Meglos, Episode 1" first aired on September 27, 1980.
