THE ARK. Written by Paul Erickson and Lesley Scott. 4 episodes.
5th - 26th March 1966.
The Steel Sky, The Plague, The Return, The Bomb.
COMPANIONS:- Steven and Dodo.
The Earth has been abandoned as it is about to crash into the Sun. The
TARDIS lands aboard a huge Ark which is travelling to a new planet. On
board are examples of all the animals and plants from Earth, as well as the
human passengers and their servants, the mute Monoids.
Dodo has a cold and it spreads amongst the colonists, who have been in
space for so long they have lost their natural immunity. The Monoids are
unaffected. The Doctor and his companions are put on trial for their lives
as the colonists begin to die off but are reprieved so that the Doctor can
try to find a cure. This he does and the TARDIS leaves the Ark.
In episode three the TARDIS re-materialises aboard the Ark some 700 years
later. The Monoids have now become masters of the Ark and have developed
the power of speech whilst the humans have become slaves.
The Ark is approaching its destination, Refusis and the Monoids plan to
destroy the Ark with the humans aboard, as they no longer need them.
The Doctor meets the invisible Refusians and with their help, forces the
Monoids and humans to live in peace.
