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 was still, in a fashion, portrayed by William Hartnell: a photoshoot with Hartnell in costume, two Dalek props, and actress Barbara Lord as the titular Barbara was held for the story. As the photograph was printed in colour, it constituted the first coloured appearances by Hartnell as the Doctor.
