Anyway, this is another of those I vaguely remember watching many, many years ago (oddly I can remember the day I bought the VHS) but can remember very little about. Other than a horrible feeling that it’s quite dull…
I can’t be arsed reciting the story as it’s a pretty bog standard “Planet full of dopey locals who are exploited by an invading alien force” story. Only in this case the alien force has been there for hundreds of years and no-one has ever got around to telling them to sod off. This is the story of the day they decide to do just that.
The Krotons themselves are quite nice and I like the idea of crystalline entities but the plot is very basic and even though the story is only 4 episodes long is just seems to drag.
I can understand why I had a pre-conceived view of this story and I think I can also see why my sub conscious delayed watching it until there was no more Breaking Bad left to watch.
Not bad, as such, just dull.
