 Sentence of Death, The Keys of Marinus.

 COMPANIONS:- Ian, Barbara and Susan.

   The TARDIS lands on an island on the planet Marinus where the sea is
 acid and the sand is made of glass. The TARDIS is captured by Arbitan,
 Keeper of the Conscience Machine of Marinus, a machine that controls the
 planet, preventing crime.
   Four of the five control keys for the machine are lost and Arbitan
 "persuades" the TARDIS crew to hunt for them using travel dials: wrist-
 watch like personal transportation systems. The travellers go to the
 futuristic city of Millenius, an icy wilderness, a jungle and the night-
 mare city of Metamorphon.
   Upon their return the travellers find Arbitan dead, murdered by the
 leader of the Voords who now control the island. Ian is forced to hand over
 the keys but one is a fake, which causes the Machine to explode, destroying
 the Voords and itself and freeing the people of Marinus.
