Synopsis of Doctor Who: The Mutants, Episode 5
In the fifth episode of the six-part story "The Mutants," the Doctor (Jon Pertwee) and Jo (Katy Manning) have handed over the package of bio-readings that will enable the primitive inhabitants of the planet Solos to begin their evolutionary process. In so doing, the Doctor incurs the wrath of the Marshal (Paul Whitsun-Jones) of the orbiting Earth skybase. Determined to prevent the Solonions from declaring their independence, the Marshal forces the Doctor to work on a machine that will destroy Solos' poisonous atmosphere, thereby enabling the Skybase to launch an all-out invasion of the planet. Written by Bob Baker and David Martin, "The Mutants, Episode 5" first aired on May 6, 1972. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
