Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDouglas Adams created the air car as a way to avoid scenes set in corridors, which he hated.
- Goofs(at around 5 mins) When the Doctor flips his large coin to determine a course of action, he transfers it from his right hand to his left. The transfer is smooth enough, but as he and Mula look up to "watch" the coin come down, the coin is still partly visible in his left hand.
- Quotes
Kimus: Say, you're very good at this. Do you drive these things for a living?
The Doctor: No. I save planets mostly, but this time I think I've arrived far, far too late.

Featured review
More shouting and more silliness.
After the disappointing Part 1 my expectations for Part 2 are low.
In brief, Romana is captured and made to investigate the break down of the engines, The Doctor breaks in and offers to help her, but it's not long before he realises The Captain is actually committing a heinous crime. We are briefly introduced to the Captain's Nurse, and we see The Captain's robotic parrot kill a member of staff during one of his rages. The Doctor, Romana and Klimus travel down to the Mine shafts and discover something very disturbing, The Captain's hidden secret and the Mentiads.
The robotic Parrot is pretty cool. Again i'm fairly unimpressed with the Captain's raging, he's a bit ridiculous.
The scenes set in the Power Plant are really good, naturally they look fantastic, it's surprising they had the permission.
The locations used in the filming are pretty amazing, the scenes in the mountains look rather spectacular.
It's another silly episode, but it's a definite improvement on Part 1, the story at least is developing into quite a clever one.
