Saturday, the 1st Doctor tries to turn one of The War Machines against WOTAN, in the final surviving William Hartnell story. Then, the 2nd Doctor, Jamie, and Victoria visit the planet Telos, where the last of the Cybermen are buried, hopefully forever. Finally, the 2nd Doctor, Jamie, and Zoe go to Dulkis for a nice relaxing vacation on an island riddled with radiation. But the radiation is gone. I guess this means the vacation's off.
