 Doctor Who: Castrovalva - An In-Depth Review 
  
 Part 1 
 Following his regeneration, the Fifth Doctor is weak and unstable. 
 Adric, Tegan, and Nyssa help him recover in the TARDIS. 
 The Master kidnaps Adric, using him to create a trap. 
  
 Part 2 
 The TARDIS crew heads to Castrovalva, a peaceful place 
 where the Doctor can recuperate. They find themselves in a tranquil 
 yet mysterious environment, with Adric missing. 
  
 Part 3 
 As the Doctor recuperates, he uncovers oddities in Castrovalva's 
 structure. The town is revealed to be a recursive trap created 
 by the Master, using Adric's mathematical prowess. 
  
 Part 4 
 The Doctor and his companions confront the Master, disrupting 
 his control over Castrovalva. The Doctor's strength returns, 
 and they escape the collapsing reality, leaving the Master defeated. 
  
 Rating 
  
 Overall Rating: 8/10 
  
 Strengths: 
  
     Regeneration Story: Engaging exploration of the Doctor's 
  regeneration process. 
   
     Atmosphere: Castrovalva€€s surreal environment adds intrigue. 
   
     Performances: Peter Davison shines in his debut as the Fifth Doctor. 
  
 Weaknesses: 
  
     Pacing: Some segments may feel slow to action-oriented viewers. 
   
     Complexity: The recursive plot may be challenging for some to follow. 
  
 Overall, "Castrovalva" offers a strong start for the Fifth Doctor, 
 blending psychological intrigue with classic "Doctor Who" adventure.
