The Master Chronicles on FOXTEL just keep going. The Master returns to Gallifrey this weekend in 'The Deadly Assassin' and his appearance has changed. He's used up his regenerations and his plans are even more sinister than before. In 'Keeper of Traken', the Doctors tries to prevent the Master from attaining the Keepership and gaining ultimate power. Then, Tom Baker's last story, 'Logopolis' has the Doctor worried about the TARDIS falling apart, but something more evil is at work when he realizes that this may mean the end of the Universe as we know it.
