I watched it on VHS, (it was released with "The Romans" in the
90's) and it was okay. Entertaining enough for a two-part story
that was basically produced just to introduce a new companion,
but "The Rescue" lacked substance beyond that.

I did think the Target novelisation was more enjoyable though.
