The Daleks Destroy The Zomites: Second story. The Doctor and his companions arrives on the Daleks’ homeworld (with no mention of the name Skaro) where they encountered menacing insects in The Zomites. The Zomites are also menacing to the Daleks, which made the Daleks and the time travellers unusual allies. Not bad this unusual alliance and the end of it makes it clear that things will be back to normal the next time they meet.

Dr Who In The Spiders Web: Fourth story. A companion decided to venture out of TARDIS first only for her to meet a giant spider. Luckily she is rescued in time. Fun and thrilling little adventure and it sure taught the companion not to venture out first.

Dr Who Meets The Watermen: Fifth story. This is not much of an adventure because while the Doctor does meet the Watermen, it however has the Doctor fixing the Watermen’s spaceship and the Watermen then make their way to wherever their journey takes them.

The Defeat of the Daleks: Sixth story. Looked over by the Doctor, a companion uses a ray gun to defeat the Daleks. Outside of this story if only defeating the Daleks was that easy since they keep on coming back!

The Secrets of the Tardis: Seventh story. The Doctor explains to his companions why the TARDIS is bigger on the insider than the outside. Nice little explanation here with the Doctor saying that it allows them to have adventures ahead of them.

The Daleks Are Foiled: Eighth story. Funny that a companion described the Dalek eyes as “Tele-eyes” as it is not a description that has popped up in the TV series. Pretty good how the Daleks attempt to track down the Doctor and his friends got foiled by a cat.

Dr Who and the Nerve Machine: Ninth story. The Doctor gets psychically controlled by the Daleks through the said Nerve Machine. Intriguing little story on this premise in which the Daleks’ power on the Doctor with this machine gets overcome thanks to Ian’s efforts in removing the Doctor from this control.

Where Diamonds Are Worthless: Thirteenth story. The time travellers land on a planet when Ian found lots of diamonds. However the Doctor says that they are worthless as they disappear in the TARDIS once she takes off. Finding diamonds and not able to collect them hardly makes for an exciting story and a bit off to what is now generally known about Doctors and their companions as they are hardly treasure hunters.

The Prehistoric Monster: Antepenultimate story. Upon the time travellers’ visit to the prehistoric era, a dinosaur, the titular prehistoric monster gets into the TARDIS. The time travellers then get into the TARDIS with the monster and as they travel forward in time the monster shrinks and disappears as it has gone past its species’ time. Overall not bad on this method to deal with this monster.

On The Planet Vortis: Penultimate story. This is a re-telling of The Web Planet with the Doctor and his companions arriving on the Planet Vortis. Enjoyable little prologue of what was happening just prior to the arrival of the time travellers. It seemed that On The Planet Vortis was told as Part 1 of a two part story with the second part being The Zarbi Are Destroyed. Interesting way to tell the beginning of a two-parter here.
