The premise
In a Mars base, the inhabitants are being infected by a mysterious water creature which takes over its victims. The Doctor is thrust into the middle of this catastrophe, knowing a larger one is waiting around the corner.
Horror Vault's take
Stranded on a remote Martian base, the Doctor finds himself witness to a catastrophe he knows he should not interfere with — a relentless, water-borne infection spreading through the crew with terrifying speed. The horror lies not only in the grotesque transformation of the infected, but in the impossible moral weight pressing down on the last Time Lord. With nowhere to run and the clock ticking, every decision carries consequences that ripple far beyond the red planet. This is Doctor Who at its darkest, blending creature-feature dread with genuine existential anguish.
