The Who Files continue, currently showing the best of The Master. Logopolis features the end of the 4th Doctor, as the Master's cunning plan goes a little bit farther then even he anticipated, threatening the entire universe. The King's Demons is a compact adventure in 1215 England when the 5th Doctor, Tegan, and Turlough meet King John at a castle in the British countryside, while he is supposed to be in London signing the Magna Carta. Planet Of Fire is an intriguing tale, where a series of unrelated events tie together to bring the 5th Doctor, Turlough, Kamelion, and a college student named Peri to a planet on the point of collapse. It turns out that Turlough has kept a few secrets from the Doctor. Finally, in Mark Of The Rani, someone is making Luddites more dangerous then they actually were in 19th Century England, and the 6th Doctor must figure out why.
