Eldrad was once hailed as a saviour of the world of Kastria. He erected force-barriiers around the planet, preventing its imminent destruction. However, when the Kastrians refused to submit to his dictatorship, he removed the force-fields, condemning an entire civilization to a slow and agonising death. For this, the mightiest of crimes, the people of Kastria sentenced Eldrad to obliteration. Millions of years later, the Doctor's TARDIS materializes in an English quarry. A freak accident traps the Doctor's young friend, Sarah Jane Smith, under tons of rock. When she is frantically clinging to a large stone hand. Taken to a local hospital, it soon becomes clear that Sarah has been possessed. After she goes missing - still clutching the hand - the Doctor follows a trail of death and destruction to a nearby atomic power station. What strange power does the hand have over Sarah? Why has she thought her very way to the very core of the nuclear reactor? How can she possibly survive the normally lethal radiation? To answer these questions, the Doctor must travel across the galaxy to a long-dead world-after which, life will never be the same again.... Originally transmitted 2 October 1976 to 23 October 1976
