High - Corporal Peter Symonds - Soldier Written byRobert Banks Stewart Produced byPhilip Hinchcliffe Directed byDouglas Camfield SynopsisReturning to Earth, the Doctor, Sarah and Harry arrive in the Scottish Highlands to investigate the mysterious destruction of several oil rigs in the North Sea. Local superstition speaks of a deadly threat that lurks on Tulloch Moor, but the truth is even more disturbing: the legendary Loch Ness Monster is a terrifying cyborg beast which is controlled by the Zygons, an advanced alien race who are desperate to ensure their own survival, at any cost ... BackgroundOpening Season 13, Terror of the Zygons marks a new direction for Doctor Who. Producer Philip Hinchcliffe and Script Editor Robert Holmes deliver a story which is more horror than sci-fi, introducing a rich gothic quality to the established Letts / Dicks formula. An evocative - if not entirely authentic - depiction of the Scottish Highlands provides the backdrop for this dark and eerie tale which has the cinematic tone of a Hammer movie. There is genuine, creeping unease as we are shown the Zygons spying on the humans at the Fox Inn, followed by the unnerving realisation that those you trust - and even your best friends - may not be what they seem ... Balancing this darkness is the warmth and camaraderie of the regular cast, in a story which allows them to shine: Sarah, investigating the mystery of Tulloch Moor and poking around at Forgill Castle; Harry, compassionate, brave and downright chilling as the doppelganger; and the Doctor, playful, incisive and reminding us yet again that he is not of this Earth. The story also delivers one last rousing hurrah for UNIT and the Brigadier, who is finally granted his wish for an alien menace that is not immune to bullets. Both UNIT and the Brigadier would reappear in Doctor Who of course, but with different, and arguably diminished, roles to play. Terror of the Zygons is bold, confident storytelling, with atmospheric direction by Douglas Camfield, and impressive creature and set by John Friedlander, James Acheson and Nigel Curzon. | ||
