 I can't access the specific transcripts for "Doctor Who: Planet of Evil" 
 from the provided site. However, I can still provide a general summary 
 and review based on the known plot and details of the serial. 
  
 "Planet of Evil" Overview 
  
 "Planet of Evil" is a four-part serial from the thirteenth season 
 of "Doctor Who," first aired in 1975. It features the Fourth Doctor, 
 played by Tom Baker, alongside his companion Sarah Jane Smith. 
  
 Part 1 
  
 Summary: The Doctor and Sarah Jane respond to a distress call 
 from Zeta Minor, a distant planet on the edge of the known universe. 
 They find a geological expedition decimated, with the survivors 
 being menaced by a mysterious force. They discover that the planet 
 is the boundary between the universes of matter and anti-matter. 
  
 Review: The first episode effectively establishes a foreboding 
 atmosphere with its eerie jungle setting and mysterious deaths. 
 The introduction of the anti-matter concept adds a unique scientific twist. 
  
 Rating: 8/10 
  
 Part 2 
  
 Summary: The Doctor discovers that the planet's anti-matter properties 
 are responsible for the deaths. The expedition leader, Professor Sorenson, 
 is determined to exploit the anti-matter for its energy potential, 
 despite the Doctor's warnings. Tensions rise as the anti-matter 
 creature begins attacking the crew. 
  
 Review: This episode builds on the suspense, with the anti-matter 
 creature providing a palpable threat. The conflict between scientific 
 ambition and ethical responsibility is well portrayed. 
  
 Rating: 8/10 
  
 Part 3 
  
 Summary: The Doctor tries to return the anti-matter to its source 
 to stop the creature's attacks, but Sorenson's obsession endangers 
 everyone. The Doctor and Sarah Jane struggle to survive 
 as the anti-matter creature becomes more aggressive. 
  
 Review: The tension reaches new heights as the Doctor races against 
 time to save the crew and return the anti-matter. The psychological 
 conflict within Sorenson adds depth to the story. 
  
 Rating: 8/10 
  
 Part 4 
  
 Summary: The Doctor manages to confront the anti-matter creature 
 and returns the stolen anti-matter, quelling the threat. Sorenson 
 is transformed by the anti-matter but is ultimately saved by the Doctor. 
 The expedition is rescued, and the Doctor 
 ensures that the dangerous knowledge of the anti-matter 
 remains on Zeta Minor. 
  
 Review: The conclusion provides a satisfying resolution, 
  with the Doctor's ingenuity and compassion on full display. 
   The themes of scientific ethics and the dangers of tampering 
    with unknown forces are neatly wrapped up. 
  
    Rating: 8/10 
  
    Overall Series Rating: 8/10 
  
    "Planet of Evil" is a strong "Doctor Who" serial that combines 
    suspense, scientific concepts, and ethical dilemmas. 
    The atmospheric setting, compelling threat, and well-developed 
    plot make it a memorable adventure for the Fourth Doctor 
    and Sarah Jane. The serial effectively balances tension 
    and resolution, maintaining a consistent level of engagement 
    throughout.
