'Galaxy 4' (4 Parts) Story Code 'T' by William Emms

The Doctor, Steven and Vicki arrive on a barren planet in Galaxy 4, where they meet the beautiful female Drahvins, the crew of a crashed spaceship. The Drahvins tell the travellers that they are under attack by the crew of another crashed ship, the hideous, monstrous Rills and their robotic servants, the Chumblies. The Rills are revealed to actually be friendly explorers, while the Drahvins are mindless cloned soldiers commanded by their warrior leader, Maaga. Both ships were damaged when the Drahvins started a space battle, but whereas the Rills' ship is almost ready to take off, the Drahvins' is beyond repair. The planet is now about to disintegrate, and Maaga forces the Doctor and his companions to help her seize control of the Rills' ship. Instead, the Doctor allows the Rills to draw power from the TARDIS, so that they can use it to escape; they leave the Drahvins to their well-deserved fate.
