Kate O'Mara guest-stars as the Rani, an exiled Time Lady. Encamped in 19th century England, the Rani -- now the dictator of the planet Miasimia Gora -- is draining the brains of the men behind the Industrial Revolution. The Doctor (Colin Baker) must not only stop the Rani, but also a more familiar and even deadlier adversary. Written by Pip and Jane Baker, and largely filmed at Blists Hill, an open-air museum in Britain's Ironbridge Gorge, "The Mark of the Rani" was originally shown in two parts, the first of which aired on February 2, 1985; for American television, the two 45-minute episodes were subdivided into four 22-minute chapters. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
