 "Doctor Who: The Green Death" is a six-part serial 
 from the Jon Pertwee era, originally broadcast in 1973. 
 Here's a review primarily based on the script provided on chakoteya.net: 
  
 Episode 1: The Doctor and Jo visit the Welsh village of Llanfairfach, 
 where mysterious deaths and strange occurrences 
 are linked to a nearby chemical plant. The episode effectively sets up 
 the premise and introduces the main characters, including the workers 
 at the plant and the enigmatic Professor Clifford Jones. 
 The tension builds as the Doctor investigates the unusual happenings 
 and uncovers the plant's toxic secrets. Rating: 8/10 
  
 Episode 2: The Doctor delves deeper into the mystery of the chemical 
 plant and discovers the presence of giant maggots, the result of toxic 
 waste dumping. Meanwhile, the character dynamics between the Doctor, 
 Jo, and the plant workers are well-developed. The action sequences 
 are engaging, and the stakes feel higher as the true extent 
 of the danger becomes apparent. Rating: 8/10 
  
 Episode 3: The Doctor and Jo face off against the giant maggots 
 and their queen, trying to find a way to stop their rampage. 
 The suspense continues to build as they face various obstacles 
 and challenges. The moral dilemmas faced by the characters add 
 complexity to the story. Rating: 8/10 
  
 Episode 4: The Doctor races against time to find an antidote 
 for the poison affecting the workers and stop the giant maggots 
 from spreading further. The action sequences are intense, 
 and the resolution is satisfying. However, some may find the pacing 
  slightly slow in this episode. Rating: 7/10 
  
 Episode 5: The climax of the story sees the Doctor and his allies 
  confronting the mastermind behind the toxic waste dumping, 
  who plans to use the maggots as a weapon. The resolution 
  is satisfying, though some may find it slightly rushed. 
  The episode ends on a hopeful note, with the Doctor reflecting 
  on the importance of protecting the environment. Rating: 7/10 
  
 Episode 6: The Doctor and Jo bid farewell to their friends in 
 Llanfairfach and depart in the TARDIS. The emotional impact 
 is poignant, and the ending leaves a sense of closure 
 for the characters. While some episodes suffer from pacing 
 issues, the overall experience is enjoyable 
 and thought-provoking. Rating: 7/10 
  
 Overall, "The Green Death" is a classic Doctor Who serial 
 that explores themes of environmentalism, corporate greed, 
 and friendship. Jon Pertwee delivers a charismatic performance 
 as the Doctor, and the dynamic between him and his companions 
 adds depth to the narrative. The story is engaging, 
 with plenty of suspense and action to keep viewers entertained. 
 While some episodes suffer from pacing issues, the overall 
 experience is enjoyable and memorable. Overall Rating: 7.5/10
