1.0 out of 5 stars Cliché, cliché, cliché, October 27, 2000
This review is from: Doctor Who: The Space Pirates (Doctor Who Library) (Paperback)
Not necessarily obvious to the outside viewer, but Doctor Who was in trouble at the end of the era of Patrick Troughton, the second actor to play the Doctor on TV. Several scripts fell through, and I can only hope that this one was made out of sheer desperation.

Terrance Dicks adapts this low-grade space opera, which is really a Western dressed up in a space suit. The TARDIS arrives on a space station, and the Doctor, Jamie and Zoe are separated from their ship when the station is split apart. Inevitably they get caught up in this trivial tale of claim jumping and political struggle for the control of a mining company.

Read it if you are a completist. Avoid it otherwise.
