UNIT Hotline's header, based on a promotional image of Sgt Benton.
The UNIT Club Page, later known as the UNIT Hotline, was an in-universe page printed in Doctor Who Weekly, later Doctor Who Monthly and Doctor Who Magazine, from issues 26 to 47. Early issues included coupons, a mailing address and instructions on how to "join UNIT," with those who followed instructions being sent a codebook and ID card. Following issues would feature coded messages which could be cracked with the codebook, alongside other mini-features giving "intel" to the undercover UNIT operatives. The feature returned in the celebratory issue 350.

Throughout its run, the UNIT Hotline page acted as a sort of umbrella for a series of smaller in-universe features.
