In 'Time Flight', the Doctor suggests a trip to the Great Exhibition of 1951 to cheer up his companions Tegan and Nyssa following the death of Adric. However, the TARDIS instead arrives at Heathrow airport in 1982, and its crew discover that a Concorde aircraft has just disappeared mid-flight. Using his old UNIT connections to gain the confidence of Air Control, the Doctor arranges to board an identical plane and trace the flight path of the missing craft. Soon after take-off he is amazed to discover that he has travelled millions of years back in time to Earth's Pleistocene period, where he encounters an old foe... In 'Arc of Infinity', the Doctor is attacked by an anti-matter creature, which attempts to bond with him genetically. With Nyssa, the Doctor has to return to his home world of Gallifrey, the only place the creature could have obtained his bio-data extract. Sentenced to death by the High Council in order to prevent the full bonding, the Doctor has to find the traitor on Gallifrey and prevent the return of his old enemy Omega, who is holding his companion Tegan hostage.This story features the first appearance of future Doctor Colin Baker, in the role of Commander Maxil. AMAZON REVIEW Two stories based around the character of Tegan, this union of Time-Flight and Arc of Infinity is an interesting double header for any Doctor Who enthusiast. Both stories see Peter Davison in the title role. Time-Flight's big selling point is neither Davison's Doctor nor Janet Fielding's Tegan. Instead, it's Concorde, as the Doctor gets Tegan to Heathrow Airport, only to discover that the infamous supersonic jet is caught in a muddle with a time corridor. And while truthfully the story wrapping round this concept isn't top of the range Who, it's still both entertaining and easy to watch, and good fun all round. Arc of Infinity, meanwhile, takes the Doctor back into the midst of the Time Lords, only to discover that one of them has chosen him to be the victim of a strange creature. This creature can only survive by bonding with a Time Lord, and when the High Council of Time Lords rules that the Doctor has to be killed, the scene is set for an interesting mystery, that also sees Tegan fall into dangerous hands too. The two stories in this Doctor Who boxset are, to be fair, fairly loosely linked, but while neither comes from a particularly classic era of the show, both have plenty to make them worth watching. Of the two, Arc of Infinity is the better, but backed up with the usual top notch extras, this is a boxset that few Doctor Who fans will want to be without. --Jon FosterDVDs ARE REGION 2 UNLESS OTHERWISE STATEDPlayback Region 2 :This will not play on most DVD players sold in the U.S., U.S. Territories, Canada, and Bermuda.
