The Leisure Hive
submitted by Jen Chapin-Smith on July 27, 2013, 11:52pm
"The Leisure Hive" starts with the Doctor taking a nap on an English beach when K9 accidentally falls in the water, putting the tin dog out of commission for the rest of the episode*. So, the Doctor and Romana travel to the leisure planet Argolis, only to discover that there is actually something amiss in what is usually just an galactic tourist destination.
Tom Baker played the fourth Doctor (one of my favorites) and Lalla Ward (to whom Tom Baker was briefly married) plays the second, and decidedly weaker, Romana.
*The story was actually aired as four episodes in 1980.
