Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
The shape of the Master's TARDIS on Logopolis is actually a Doric column, contrary to popular belief and its description as "Ionic" in The Discontinuity Guide (see DWM 412). Ionic columns are actually much more ornamented. According to the novelisation of Time-Flight, the Master's TARDIS was Corinthian, although it was still the same shape on screen.
