In the story, the Daleks threaten to destroy the fabric of time itself. In their quest to control the Solar System, they have taken possession of the devastating Time Destructor. Determined to stop them, the First Doctor (William Hartnell) steals the core of the weapon. He and his friends are thus pursued across time and space by their ruthless, powerful nemeses...
