Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAccording to Jon Pertwee, Roger Delgado was afraid of the water and it took great courage for him to film the scene in which the Master and the Doctor are rescued from the sea by the Navy. However, Delgado's widow Kismet says this is untrue and that he was actually worried about getting his costume wet, as there was no spare available.
- GoofsSurely the doctor wouldn't leave a single sailor guarding the master knowing his gift for mind control.
- Quotes
Master: Once they see that the device works properly, they'll release me.
Doctor Who: I very much doubt it. You see, before you reactivated it, I reversed the polarity of the neutron flow.
Master: You did what? You realise what will happen?
Doctor Who: Oh, yes. Do you?
Master: Well, there'll be a massive reverse feedback into their whole power system.
Doctor Who: Exactly. In about ten minutes from now the whole place should go up. Enjoy your revenge.

It's great, it really is James Bond meets sci fi, it's packed with all sorts, good old fashioned science fiction, a battle against find to save the world, and The Doctor battling against his oldest enemy, The Master.
Explosions at sea, Submarines, hovercrafts, I've said it the whole way through The Sea Devils, there is no hint of a wobbly set or a cheap special effect, this was amazingly well made.
They could have given Delgado's stunt double a bit of a beard, the chap is totally clean shaven. Anyhow, Delgado was terrific throughout, his final scene was brilliant.
Classic, 9/10.
