Seems to be an interesting story, featuring a wacky computer supplying lots of interesting quotes (look at today's signoff), and ending, appropriately enough for a serial, with a cliffhanger. The Doctor is portrayed by Colin Bak- er, accompanied by Nicola Bryant as Peri. -- Kriton (princeton!tilt!kyrimis) ------ "It suddens me to report that mr. Wilson and mr.
