Episodes:

143a 1 The Mysterious Planet

The Sixth Doctor is forced to land the TARDIS aboard a Gallifreyan space station, where he is brought into a courtroom.

The Inquisitor informs the Doctor he is on trial for conduct unbecoming a Time Lord; evidence will be presented by the Valeyard.

The first evidence is shown through video footage, taken from the Matrix, of the Doctor's recent involvement in the planet Ravolox, where the Valeyard shows that the Doctor willingly became involved in the affairs of the planet.

The Doctor denies these charges as the Valeyard brings them. After showing the video, the Valeyard affirms he has more evidence sufficient to call for the end of the Doctor's life.

As shown by the video, the Doctor and Peri arrive on Thoros Beta, the Doctor's curiosity piqued on the availability of advanced weaponry by the Warlords of Thordon.

As they explore a cave system, the Doctor discovers Sil, an arms dealer for the Mentors that are supplying the weapons.

Exploring further, they find that the scientist Crozier in Sil's employ is attempting to perfect the ability to transplant the brilliant mind of Kiv, Sil's superior, into another body to overcome Kiv's pending death.

When discovered, the two make their escape with the warlord King Yrcanos, one of Crozier's test subjects.

143c 3 Terror of the Vervoids

On the Hyperion III, an elderly man named Kimber thinks he recognises a fellow passenger as an investigator called Hallett.

However, the passenger claims that he is a mineralogist called Grenville. A trio of scientist passengers - Professor Lasky and her colleagues Bruchner and Doland - are alarmed that Grenville might be an investigator.

Edwardes, the communications officer, detects a craft close to the ship - the TARDIS - but is unable to get a reply.

Suddenly, an unseen figure attacks him and injects him with a syringe. He then uses the communication equipment to send a message to the TARDIS. On board, the Doctor and Mel pick up a Mayday message.

They materialise within the Hyperion III's cargo hold, are seized by guards, and are brought before Commodore Travers - whom the Doctor has met before. Travers denies sending a mayday signal, but wants the Doctor and Mel to remain on board.

Travers hopes that the Doctor will find out who sent the fake mayday call.

143d 4. The Ultimate Foe

The Doctor boldly claims the Valeyard's evidence has been falsified, and the Matrix has been tampered with. The Keeper of the Matrix insists this impossible. Glitz and Mel arrive unexpectedly in the courtroom. The Master appears on the Matrix screen to claim responsibility and to demonstrate it's possible to breach the Matrix.

 At the Master's insistence, Glitz reveals the data he tried to obtain on Ravolox included technological secrets from the Matrix, which was stolen by the Sleepers. The Time Lords traced the Sleepers to their base on Earth and dragged the planet across space to the location in which the Doctor found it - and nearly annihilating all life in the process.

The Doctor denounces the Time Lords as decadent and corrupt.

The Master explains that the Valeyard is a manifestation of the Doctor's darker side "somewhere between [the Doctor's] twelfth and final incarnation"; the High Council offered the Valeyard the Doctor's remaining regenerations in exchange for falsifying evidence.

Hello :-)

IMPORTANT DVD INFORMATION FOR MY US & CANADIAN CUSTOMERS:

As per the auction these are UK Region B BLU-RAYs (US/Canada are Region A) and you need a multi-regional (multi-zone) BLU-RAY player to play them!

I see there are many economical Multi Region players on EBay.
Just do a search if you wish.

It seems a shame to let go of this great Hi Def set.

Cheers :-)
