Once revived by the team, Varga forces the Doctor's companion Victoria to help him free the rest of his

One of the essential adventures from Troughton's Monster Era, this collector's edition video
includes a booklet and CD soundtrack.

The Doctor and Ace arrive on the planet Segonax to watch the "Greatest Show in the Galaxy", the Psychic

secret of the Circus, that the family are the terrifying Gods of Ragnarok, whose lust for novelty
is backed by the constant threat of death for those who fail to please them.
