Synopsis by Hal Erickson
In the second episode of the four-part story "The Creature From the Pit," the Doctor (Tom Baker) comes face to face with the blob-like title character as he attempts to elude the minions of Lady Adrasta (Myra Frances), despotic ruler of the planet Chloris. The creature's system contains an abundance of precious metals, and as such is highly coveted by the selfish Adrasta. Meanwhile, the villainess places the life of Romana (Lalla Ward) in direct jeopardy -- and the Doctor's robotic dog K-9 is unable to offer assistance. Written by David Fisher, "The Creature From the Pit, Episode 2" was originally telecast on November 3, 1979.
