Carnival of Monsters - Episode 4

The Doctor regains his full size and sets about fixing things. More dodgy CSO as the Drashigs attack the grey aliens. Not quite sure why the Doctor had to go back inside the Scope to rescue Jo, as when the Phase 2 switch is pulled, she would have automatically come back outside anyway. Oh, well. But a happy ending is shared by most (except those who were killed by the Drashigs).

A thumbs up from me, albeit barely. The slow plot is made up for by some great witty dialogue, particularly among the grey aliens, and also Vorg and Shirna. The effects aren't all that great, but overall the story entertains, and that's not a bad thing at all.
