  • More Double Trouble for the Doctor, who arrives in Australia in the near future only to discover he is the exact double of Salamander, a scientist turned politician who has perfected a technique for storing and distributing solar energy, feeding a world ravaged by storms, volcanoes and earthquakes. The Doctor meets Giles Kent, a dissident who believe Salamader is busy setting himself up as a dictator rather than the world-saving hero everyone else believes. He convinces the Doctor to impersonate Salamader in order to investigate. In an underground bunker, the Doctor discovers a group of people who, having been selected for an endurance test five years ago, believe that there is a war going on above and they have been striking back at the enemy by engineering the natural disasters. Kent originally worked with Salamander on the project, but now returns to destroy the base. Salamander attempts to escape in the TARDIS by impersonating the Doctor, but forgets to close the doors before dematerialising and is sucked out into space.
