9/10
A great start, a great new companion.

The Doctor lands on a strange planet inhabited by the Savage race, The Sevateem.

I have always enjoyed this story, the first episode is particularly good, it's a great story, with multiple points of interest, The Evil one, Xoanon and of course the introduction of Leela.

I think the sets looks great, they manage to appear large and spacious, but are so well dressed, reminiscent of the first Dalek story and Planet of Evil. I'm not sure if chunks of this were done on film, but it looks terrific.

Tom breaks the rule of the fourth wall, but because he's Tom, he gets away with it, only he could have.

Great start. 9/10
