Barbara in Wonderland was a short story original to the 1964 Radio Times Christmas special. A loose pastiche of Alice in Wonderland, it featured the First Doctor and two Daleks as part of its supporting cast.
Uniquely, despite being a prose appearance, the Doctor in this story was still portrayed by William Hartnell in a very material way: a photoshoot with Hartnell in costume, two Dalek props, and actress Barbara Lord as the titular Barbara (who, it is worth noting, had no relation to companion Barbara Wright). As the photograph was printed in colour, it constituted one of the two colour appearances by Hartnell as the Doctor, the second coming in the much later TV story The Three Doctors.

Story notes
- Two different shots of the photograph featuring William Hartnell were actually taken; the other one was printed in black and white in an advertisement for the then-upcoming Radio Times Christmas special. It was later restored and colorised by Clayton Hickman at the request of Stuart Humphryes.[1]
