Since I can't access the transcript directly from the provided link,
I'll give you an overview based on my knowledge
of "Doctor Who: The Horns of Nimon," a serial from
the 17th season of the show.

Overview of "The Horns of Nimon":

"The Horns of Nimon" is a four-part serial in the long-running
British sci-fi series "Doctor Who," featuring the Fourth Doctor,
portrayed by Tom Baker, and his companion Romana, played by Lalla Ward.
The serial originally aired from December 22, 1979, to January 12, 1980.

Part 1

The Doctor and Romana encounter a spaceship in distress,
piloted by the co-pilot of the Skonnon ship transporting
young sacrifices to the Nimon. The Skonnon Empire,
seeking to restore its former glory, strikes a deal
with the Nimon, who promises power in exchange for human sacrifices.

Part 2

The Doctor and Romana investigate the mysterious maze-like
complex on Skonnos, discovering the Nimon's true nature.
The Nimon is a parasitic alien, consuming planets
by draining their resources and then moving on to the next.

Part 3

The Doctor uncovers the Nimon's plan to use a black hole
to bring more of its kind to Skonnos. The Nimons use a type
of energy to create a spatial link between worlds,
planning to expand their dominion and consume more planets.

Part 4

The Doctor and Romana thwart the Nimon's invasion by destroying
the black hole's link, causing a chain reaction that annihilates
the Nimon. The Skonnon Empire collapses, and the young sacrifices
are freed, ending the Nimon threat.

Rating

Overall Rating: 6/10

"The Horns of Nimon" is often remembered for its campy elements,
with a mix of classic "Doctor Who" charm and some less polished
moments. Here are some points to consider:

Plot: The storyline is straightforward but engaging, involving
themes of sacrifice, power, and deception.

Performances: Tom Baker and Lalla Ward deliver solid performances,
adding humour and wit to the narrative.

Production Values: The special effects and set designs
reflect the constraints of the show's budget at the time,
which can come across as dated.

Villain: The Nimon, while conceptually interesting,
suffers from costume and design choices that
can undermine its menace.

Overall, "The Horns of Nimon" is a quintessential "Doctor Who"
serial with its mix of science fiction and fantasy,
though not the strongest in the series,
it remains a fun watch for fans.
