Thanks for the tips, all. I've got Talons and Green Death already, and was looking to get Inferno, but I'll add Fang Rock and Robots of Death to my Xmas list.
Mind you, I've not seen Robots of Death since it was broadcast, so my memory might be hazy, but my recollection is that we'd only just got a colour TV, and that it was a cracking, creepy story only slightly marred by incredibly garish make-up and costumes. My memory might be playing tricks in that respect - if not, I can always turn the colour down a bit. One thing I'm sure I do remember from that tale was Tom Baker being completely buried in gravel at the end of one episode, and me thinking "maybe he's actually dead this time" and being kept in suspense for a very nervous week!
Fang Rock - also very scary IIRC! Looking forward to a chilling 90 minutes...
