The Nine Maidens

Story: The Stones of Blood
Written By: David Fisher
Length: 4 Episodes
Year: 1978

This is a strong story in a good season. In many ways its very good old fashioned Doctor Who - it is dark and mysterious, while simultaneously being adventurous and funny. All in all, I would say strongest story of the Season.
Baker is in strong form, as is Mary Tamm. The supporting cast is rather good too, especially the old archeologist lady.

Like I said, this season is a vast improvement on the last, but this is a story I would say is a cut above the rest.
