"The Beautiful People" would have sat very well in Doctor Who 1979. It's slightly satirical, joke-filled, and not too taxing on the brain cells. That said, the story plays out fairly well, following the logic of an evil genius who takes dieting to the extreme. Lala Ward is a very good reader, keeping the pace going and not overdoing the impressions. Fans of the Graham Williams / Douglas Adams variety of Doctor Who will like this one.
