Doctor Who: The Mutants

This one is long and mediocre. It's your standard cartoonish bad guy, occupiers oppressing the indigenous people of Solos, etc. The twist here is that the indigenous people mutate as part of their species' natural life cycle and they don't know it.


Skip this one. I remembered it being bad and that's why the Whoathon had such a long break. I kept putting off watching it.
