The classic Doctor Who season 11 episode 8, titled Invasion of the Dinosaurs: Part 4, follows the Fourth Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith as they work to stop a group of people who have brought dinosaurs from the past to modern-day London. In the previous episodes, the Doctor and Sarah Jane discovered that the apparent time travel machine used to bring the dinosaurs actually only transported London back in time, creating the appearance of the prehistoric creatures roaming the streets. The true motivation behind this plan was revealed to be an attempt at creating a utopian society free from the corrupt influence of modern technology.

As the fourth and final part of the story, this episode sees the resolution of the conflict as the Doctor and Sarah Jane work to stop the people behind the dinosaur invasion. They are aided by a group of soldiers who had become disillusioned with the plan and were now sympathetic to their cause. The group devises a plan to stop the machine responsible for transporting London back in time, which involves going into the prehistoric era to intercept it at the moment it is sending the city back. Meanwhile, the rogue scientists behind the time machine, still convinced of their plan's righteousness, are planning their final move to destroy the modern world and create their utopia.

The tension of the episode mounts as the group ventures into the prehistoric era, facing dangers from both the dinosaurs and the rogue scientists. The Doctor's quick thinking and ingenuity come into play as they navigate through the hazardous landscape and try to evade the attentions of the dinosaurs. Meanwhile, modern-day London is thrown into complete chaos as people attempt to escape the city, creating further barriers for the Doctor's rescue plan.

As the group manages to stop the time machine, they face a final confrontation with the rogue scientists who had become unhinged in their pursuit of a utopian society. The episode culminates in an action-packed finale as the Doctor and his allies fight to prevent the scientists from detonating a bomb that would erase modern civilization forever.

Overall, Invasion of the Dinosaurs: Part 4 is an exciting and action-packed finale to an engaging story arc. It explores themes of technological utopianism and environmentalism while showcasing the heroic qualities of the Doctor and his companions. The episode is a fitting conclusion to the four-part storyline, wrapping up loose ends while delivering an entertaining adventure that will delight fans of classic Doctor Who.
