The Frontier in Space

(Series 10, Episodes 9-12)

Summary: Doctor Who meets Star Trek…with a little bit of Thunderbirds thrown in.  Draconia and Earth are teetering on the brink of war, provoked by that proverbial bad penny the Master, who’s employed the services of the Ogrons…or has he?  Jo digs herself out of a cell with a spoon and the Doctor twice forgets to tether himself during EVA.  And poor old Roger Delgado gets a very underwhelming exit.

Watch it because: The Draconians have some shit-hot prosthetics.


Original Air Date: 24 February – 31 March 1973.
Doctor: Jon Pertwee.
Companions: Jo Grant (Katy Manning).
Writer: Malcolm Hulke.
Director: Paul Bernard.
