The Doctor, his companion Jo Grant and the Brigadier face their strangest case yet – a Saturday night TV show that has been invaded by aliens that look like puppets!

    Got this and this is amazing! Katy manning is on top form as always! I love the way all the scorchies have their own personalites! There’s grizzfizzle, the magic mice, amble the ugly doll, cool cat an prof. Baffle. The songs are amazings and so are the lyrics! Some of the dialoge between jo and the scorchies is amazing. The story is so joyful yet so sinister! This is one of the few stories where there is so much pressure and danger while there is hardly any action. I loved it ! 10 out of 10 !

      In conclusion, the scorchies is an hour of musical, marvellous madness! Certainly the most original, creative and imaginative story yet! 🙂

    #It’s held together with a peice of string
    # Oh what a lovely thing to sing about
    #Jo is making a thing

    #Twinkle Twinkle little death
    #Time to draw your last breath
