Synopsis

The Ood are brutalised in what look very much like concentration camps - before they're dispatched to other planets as slaves, all at the behest of a nasty, besuited villain.

But the sinister process is going wrong - the Ood are turning murderous, something that's so far from the true nature of a gentle race.

When the Doctor demonstrates to an emotional Donna just why, and with what urgency, they need to be set free.
