In the serial, the First Doctor (William Hartnell), his granddaughter Susan Foreman (Carole Ann Ford), and her teachers Ian Chesterton (William Russell) and Barbara Wright (Jacqueline Hill) are shrunk to the size of an inch after the Doctor's time machine the TARDIS arrives in contemporary England. The story's concept was first proposed as the first serial of the show's first season, but was rejected due to its technical complexity and lack of character development. When Marks was commissioned to write the script, he was inspired by Rachel Carson's 1962 environmental science book Silent Spring, the first major documentation on human impact on the environment. The story was originally written and filmed as a four-part serial, but later reduced to three parts; the third and fourth episodes were cut down to form a faster-paced climax. The serial premiered with 8.4 million viewers, maintaining audience figures throughout the three weeks. Retrospective response for the serial was mixed, with criticism directed at its story and characterisation despite praise for its ambition. It later received several print adaptations and home media releases. (en)
  • Planet of Giants é o primeiro serial da segunda temporada da série de ficção científica britânica Doctor Who. Plantet of Giants foi o primeiro episódio a se passar na Inglaterra contemporânea desde An Unearthly Child. Embora semelhante a uma ideia proposta por para o piloto de Doctor Who, o escritor afirmou que a inspiração para a história foi o trabalho pró-ecologista de Rachel Carson, Silent Spring, que alertava fortemente contra os inseticidas. Ele contou que, reduzindo o Primeiro Doctor, ele teria a oportunidade de colocar a tripulação da TARDIS cara-a-cara com os perigos que Carson havia advertido contra em seu livro. Foi, portanto, a primeira história "ambientalista" de Doctor Who. Uma espécie de conto gentilmente moralista - como e . Embora totalmente roteirizado e gravado como um arco de quatro partes, as partes três e quatro foram fundidas em um único episódio, deixando efetivamente um episódio sobrando na sala de corte. Este material editado não foi mantido - embora alguns dos detalhes tenha chegado a sua versão em livro. Em certo sentido, então, Planet of Giants foi a primeira série o primeiro arco a ter um episódio perdido. Além de ser o primeiro trabalho de Marks na série, foi também a estreia do compositor de longa data da "série", , e o primeiro crédito para o frequente diretor . (pt)
