Overview

UNIT is providing security cover at an experimental drilling project at Eastchester, designed to penetrate the Earth's crust and release a previously untapped source of energy. Soon, however, the drill head starts to leak an oily green liquid that transforms those who touch it into vicious primeval creatures with a craving for heat. The Doctor is accidentally transported "sideways in time" by the partially repaired TARDIS control console into a parallel universe where the drilling project is at a more advanced stage. Thwarted by his friends' ruthless alter egos, he works to save both universes.

This time, it's "Prof. Stahlman" (Olaf Pooley) who is leading a team determined to drill into the Earth's core and release an unlimited source of cheap energy. Of course, this isn't anywhere near as straightforward as it sounds and the deeper they go, the more unusual the side effects on the scientific team who a...
