Terminus
Regular Cast: Peter Davison (The Doctor), Sarah Sutton (Nyssa), Janet Fielding (Tegan Jovanka).
For Guest Cast, see The Programme Guide by Jean-Marc Lofficier.
Synopsis: At the Black Guardian's behest, Turlough sabotages the Tardis,
causing it to materialise on a spaceship en route to Terminus, a huge alien space station
located at the very center of the Universe. Terminus is owned by the callous Terminus, Inc.,
who use it as a final home for victims of the incurable Lazar disease. The Company
controls Terminus through its pain-killing hydromel drug. Nyssa is infected but is saved
by the ministrations of the alien Garm. Meanwhile, the Doctor discovers that it is the explosion
of one of Terminus' two unstable engines which once created the 'big bang.' He prevents a similar
Universe-destroying expolision from reoccuring. Nyssa decides to stay on Terminus to help the Lazars,
and plans to synthesise hydromel, thus freeing the station from Terminus, Inc.'s grip.
Shown 15 February 1983 to 23 February 1983.
