Aside from a bit of a moral conundrum about how time travel might present a dilemma for people who might be able to use their knowledge to affect the future, this is just a rather clunky drama that gives the crew of the TARDIS an excuse to dress up in red, white and blue and play a game of "French Revolution". No sooner have they left their blue box than they are arrested and it falls to the "Doctor" (William Hartnell) to get himself a fancy sash… read the rest.
