#45: Box Set - The Key To Time
v) The Power Of Kroll

NOTE - The release of the Key To Time box set was the most extensive release yet. It took all 6 stories from the 16th series and released the 26 episode together in a limited edition, numbered (15,000) box set.



Release date - September 2007

Box info:
"Contains the complete 26 episode story-arc
Plus 9 commentaries (over 16 hours)
Plus over 6 1/2 hours of additional special features

The Doctor, K9 and his new Time Lord friend, Romana are chosen to find the 6 segments of the Key to Time by the White Guardian. They use the core or the 'tracer' for them to land on the planets to find the segments — a lump of Jethryk, a shrunken planet called Caulfrax, the great seal of Diplos, part of a statue, the 5th has been eaten by the squid 'Kroll' and the final segment is a human being. Can the Doctor get the segments together before the universe is plunged into chaos?"




Back cover info:
"Searching for the fifth segment of the Key to Time, the tracer brings the TARDIS to the treacherous swamps on the third moon of the planet Delta Magna. The Doctor and Romana soon uncover a plot to wipe out the Swampies, the local inhabitants, by the duplicitous crew of a gas refinery

Meanwhile, a massive creature is stirring beneath the waters, and the primitive Swampies believe the only way to calm the powerful monster is human sacrifice..."
