the best minds of the Renaissance.

The TARDIS materializes in a quarry just as the rock face is blasted away by open cast miners. Sarah-Jane is buried and when the Doctor and the miners dig her out, she is grasping a hand made of rock incredibly tightly. Soon, under it's influence, she breaks into a nuclear power plant and places the hand in the radio-active core; soon it starts to re-grow a body and gains a life of it's own.
The Doctor is summoned to Gallifrey by
a vision of the new President being assassinated. Once there, he tries to prevent the
