STORY:
After a skirmish with an alien warrior in the Middle Ages, Sarah Jane Smith's life as a journalist in Croydon seems rather tame.
She decides to track down the enigmatic character who took her back in time; with the Doctor, a good story is never far away.
Her intuition pays off.
The Doctor and UNIT are called to investigate a grisly murder at Space World, a futuristic new theme park. Tagging along, Sarah
Jane Smith and her new colleague Heremy soon find themselves facing huge crab-like creatures, mind-controlling devices and
vicious flesh-eating beetles. And those are just the attractions...
