Description

This BBC box set of Doctor Who: K9 Tales unites two classic Dr Who stories: The Invisible Enemy and the first Doctor Who spin-off K9 and Company. It's also packed with a host of fantastic extras. Starring Tom Baker, The Invisible Enemy is a four-part story featuring the screen debut of K9, the robot canine. When The Doctor answers a distress call from a shuttle crew who have been infected with an intelligent virus, he too becomes contaminated. The only solution is to create clones of the timelord and his companion Leela (Louise Jameson) to enter his body and fight the virus. K9 and Company sees the Doctor's two companions, Sarah Jane Smith (Elisabeth Sladen) and K9 appearing together.
