Doctor Who: Logopolis: Part Four (1981)
Season 18, Episode 28
8/10
The end, not a moment I've ever been prepared for.
9 September 2020
The Master had caused irreversible damage to The Universe by destroying Logopolis, only The Doctor, along with the help of his old foe can delay the spread of destruction.

I'm not sure that Logopolis, as a story, ends as well as it starts, initially it's so complex and mournful, apart from the main events this final part is somehow a bit wishy washy.

One of the best sequences comes from Nyssa, where the horrified new tea watches as her planet vanishes from the skies. They truly made the right decision in bringing back Sarah Sutton.

Ainley is very good once again, he would have several excellent appearances, none quite so headline grabbing as this one.

Tom, the end off possibly The Greatest Doctor, I am not sure about you, but to me be looks a little ill throughout this one, perhaps exhausted, you decide. He bows out a hero. It's a great regeneration sequence, like a greatest bits of Doctor Who reel.

It's a decent enough story, but the final part is more about Tom than the events on Logopolis, and for that it deserves a good score, 8/10.

Thank you Tom.
