"Prisoner of the Sun" is an interesting exercise of The Doctor being The Doctor. In this story, The Doctor is a willing prisoner of a kind, so he can do what is necessary to protect a planetary system. Meanwhile, political forces behind the scenes are cooking up other ideas. It is good enough as it goes, but because of the 2-part limitation, much of the backstory is given in exposition dialogue. It would have been better to have this all work and unfold through dramatic action.
