In the second episode of the six-part story "The Mutants," the Doctor (Jon Pertwee) and Jo (Katy Manning) arrive on the planet Solos, there to help the primitive inhabitants begin their crucial evolutionary process. This assignment is complicated by the dictatorial Marshal (Paul Whitsun-Jones) of the orbiting Earth Skybase, who fears that once the Solonians evolve, they will demand full independence. An obvious but entertaining jab at Western colonialism, "The Mutants, Episode 2" was written by Bob Baker and David Martin; the episode first aired on April 15, 1972. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
