Doctor Who and Mister Drew: "The Keys of Marinus"

Well, it had to happen - the first story to be a disappointment and find its way to the bottom of the ranking list.  "The Keys of Marinus" is another ambitious story filled with mutiple characters and multiple locations, just as with the previous story, "Marco Polo".  Unlike the previous story, this one is complete for one to view - and that might not be a good thing.  John talks about the weaknesses in "The Keys of Marinus" that includes the introduction of the trope that Doctor Who doesn't do very well - the mini-adventures within a larger quest story arc.
