In the second episode of the six-part story "The Time Monster," the inventor of the matter-transmitting device TOMTITT, kindly Professor Thascales, is revealed to be the villainous Master (Roger Delgado) in disguise. In his efforts to take over the world -- and, as a bonus, to confound his old enemy the Doctor (Jon Pertwee) -- the Master intends to release the dreaded Kronos the Kronavore from an ancient Atlantan crystal. Unfortunately, Kronos is not inclined to cooperate with the Master -- nor anyone else, for that matter.

Adapted from Herman Melville's short story, Bartleby features John McEnery in the title role. A secretive, solitary lad, Bartleby works as a clerk in the accounting office of Paul Scofield. Unable to deal with Bartleby's eccentricities, Scofield fires the clerk. But Bartleby refuses to leave, and shows up each day for work at the proper time. Only when the young man is carted away to hospital does Scofield find any peace of mind-but even then, the spectre of Bartleby looms large over the proceedings. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
