On the planet Karn, mad doctor Mehendri Solon (Philip Madoc) is keeping alive the brain of Morbius, the most evil of the Time Lord criminals. Fortunately, the Doctor (
Tom Baker) arrives on Karn, and immediately sets about to destroy the brain. Unfortunately, he may well end up housing the brain himself, if Karn, and a mystic cult known as the Sisterhood, have any say in the matter. Beginning its four-episode run on January 3, 1976, "The Brain of Morbius" was written by Terrance Dicks. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
