The Didoans (also known as Dido people) were a peaceful humanoid race native to Dido.

Culture

The Didoans were a very peaceful race, as their small population made any violence a threat to their survival. They had ceremonial clothes resembling an insectoid creature which they wore on special occasions. These clothes consisted of a headdress with antennae, eyestalks, mandibles, and spikes around the neck; black robes; clawed gloves with spiked wrists; and clawed shoes with spikes around the ankles.

History

When the spaceship UK-201 crashed on the planet in 2493, the Didoans met with the surviving passengers, but were killed along with them in an explosion engineered by Bennett to cover up a murder he had earlier committed aboard the ship. At least two Didoans survived, and when they confronted Bennett, he backed away in fear and fell from a rock ledge to his death.

After the First Doctor's TARDIS left Dido, the captain of the approaching Earth rescue ship contacted UK-201 again, asking for the homing beacon so he could find the planet. However, the Didoans wrecked the communications system so the rescue ship would never arrive. (TV: The Rescue)
