Product Description

Synopsis
The Tardis crew arrive on the planet Marinus and are forced to search for four of the five operating keys to a machine called the Conscience of Marinus. Along the way, they have adventures in the city of Morphoton...

From the Back Cover
Materialising on an island of glass in a sea of acid, the Doctor, Susan, Ian and Barbara find themselves chosen to embark on a perilous quest set by Arbitan, Keeper of the Conscience of the planet Marinus.

The Conscience machine has the power to control the minds of everyone on Marinus, and it is in danger of falling into the hands of the sinister Yartek, leader of the alien Voord. To prevent disaster, the TARDIS crew must recover the machine's operating keys, hidden in various locations around the planet. Others have attempted this task before - but none have ever returned. From Morphoton to Millenius, battling ice soldiers and deadly plants, overcoming hypnotic conditioning and hostile witnesses, this trek across Marinus promises to be the four travellers' most challenging adventure yet.

This early epic by Darlek creator Terry Nation was only the fifth Doctor Who story to be made. It was originally transmitted 11 April - 16 May 1964.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 29 Nov 2000
By A Customer
I must confess buying this I was very dubious.. I had only seen the War Machines and the tenth planet before this and hadn't liked either of them but I thought I should see at least one with the original team(Dr 1, Susan, Barbara and Ian) The acting is very funny and many sets wobble but that only makes the story better!! The story is excellent and the music is first class. I have now seen most of the Dr 1 stories which wern't junked and must admit that this is one(If not the)best of the early Dr Who era!! Recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Example of Early Doctor Who, 19 April 2000
By A Customer
This is a marvellous story, with the time travellers sent out on a quest to retrieve the lost "Keys" to the supercomputer of Marinus. Each episode features a different location and thus serves to hold the interest of the viewer. The acting is surprisingly good throughout and the effect are great for the era in question. William Hartnell is on fine form as the first Doctor, as are the original TARDIS team. Give it a go !
