I remember this story distinctly from when I was a child, when it originally aired. The "brain in the jar" still has the ability to shock even 30 years later - I think the voice also helps! The Doctor is magnificent as always, and the story has a dark gothic Frankenstein feel to it.
My only criticism is that the ending is a bit of an anti-climax in my opinion...other than that it's well worth buying!!
