The Final Game (unproduced TV story): Difference between revisions

'''''The Final Game''''' was an unproduced serial intended to end [[Season 11]]. Written by Robert Sloman, it would have revealed the details of the relationship between [[the Doctor]] and [[the Master]]: either that were actually brothers or the latter [[Time Lord]] was an amalgamation of the former Time Lord's darker personality. This story originally ends with the Master's [[Roger Delgado]] incarnation sacrificing himself in some sort of explosion, with a moral dilemma that should he set off a bomb as intended, he would be killing the Doctor, his former friend. ([[DOC]]: [[The Final Curtain|''The Final Curtain'']]) However, the serial was never produced due to Delgado's sudden death. Instead, ''[[Planet of the Spiders (TV story)|Planet of the Spiders]]'' replaced this story, and Delgado's character was shelved until ''[[The Deadly Assassin (TV story)|The Deadly Assassin]]'', which recast the Master as [[Peter Pratt]], in a decayed state.
