Douglas Adams' first famous work, before Hitch-hiker's Guide To The Galaxy was made. The Doctor goes to the place where the 2nd segment of the Key To Time is supposed to be. Slight problem - the planet's missing and has been replaced by another one. Someone is using their planet to eliminate other planets in search of elements for a procedure that will contravene the laws of physics.
