The Brain of Morbius

Written by: "Robin Bland" (Terrance Dicks & Robert Holmes)

1st Aired: 3 Jan 76-24 Jan 76

Companions: Sarah Jane

Location: planet Karn, future date unknown

When the Tardis lands on the planet Karn, the Doctor suspects that his presence has been engineered by the Time Lords. A gifted surgeon named Solon welcomes the Doctor and Sarah, but Solon wants the Doctor's head as part of a stitched-together body to house the brain of the most evil Time Lord in history: Morbius. Sarah escapes from Solon and the Doctor is kidnapped by the Sisterhood of Karn, who protect the fabled Elixir of Life. They plan to sacrifice him because they believe that he was sent by the Time Lords to steal the Elixir. Sarah rescues the Doctor but is blinded in the process. The Doctor must return to Solon to find help for Sarah, but in doing so places himself in even greater danger.
