I know it's weird for me, the person who's so insistent on the recap page spoiler policy, to make an edit for the sole purpose of alluding to a future episode. I don't believe this violates the policy, because it spoils absolutely nothing. (No, the Sontarans coming back isn't by any means a spoiler.)

* IdiotPlot: The Doctor and his companions stumble around a hillside and fall unexpectedly into into crevices whenever they're close to figuring out the plot or getting to safety. The titular Sontaran experiments are mostly nonsensical and border on torture ForTheEvulz - why is it necessary for a theoretical invasion to know what resistance the human ribcage has to crushing? Why would you test it by forcing someone to hold a weight above someone's chest until it fell down and crushed him? (This may, of course, have been intentional.)

* {{Padding}}: Notably averted; as pointed out in ''The Discontinuity Guide'', coming after an extended run where serials lasting 6 or more episodes had been commonplace, this story "exposes the padding in many ''Doctor Who'' stories by completing its narrative with great economy".

* CueIrony: Creator/TomBaker broke his collarbone badly while undergoing a stunt (possibly one calling for him to fall down a ravine). Subsequent shots in the episode using him show his scarf laying oddly -- it's covering up the neckbrace and cast.
