With its hi-tech swords, you would think that the storyline came from the cutting floor of Star Wars that came out during the same time.
Grendel is plotting to seize the Taran throne from the rightful heir, Prince Reynart, and has mistaken Romana for an android duplicate of the Prince's betrothed, Princess Strella, to whom she bears a remarkable resemblance. The Doctor is meanwhile captured by Prince Reynart's men Zadek and Farrah and taken to his hunting lodge, where he is forced to repair an android double of the Prince to act as a decoy for potential assassins.

Prisoner of Zenda, Doctor Who style
23 Dec 2000
Format:Paperback
The Doctor and Romana find themselves on the planet Tara to find the fourth segment of the Key to Time. Witrh the Doctor deciding to have a break to go fishing, Romana decides to prove that the task is simpler than the Doctor makes out, and quickly find the fourth segment. She is preparing to return to the TARDIS when she meets Count Grendel, and there begins a series of events that make up this story.
If you are familiar with 'The Prisoner of Zenda', there is not much that will surprise youin this story. However, it is a quite decent change of pace for Doctor Who, and has sufficient science fiction trappings added that those who don't know the original story probably won't notice.
A high adventure romp, well worth a read. I think the video would be preferable.
