'''''The Sontaran Experiment''''' was the third serial of [[season 12]] of ''[[Doctor Who]]''. Shot entirely on location, it was the shortest story of the 1970s, with only two episodes. An outdoor shoot, all scenes were unusually recorded on videotape rather than film. | '''''The Sontaran Experiment''''' was the third serial of [[Season 12 (Doctor Who 1963)|season 12]] of ''[[Doctor Who]]''.

[[Script editor]] [[Robert Holmes]] was not a fan of six-part stories, believing that they were padded, so for season twelve, he decided to have one four-part story and one two-part story. With [[Christopher Langley]]'s "''Space Station''" already in the works, he looked to Baker and Martin to fill the gap. As an outline, Holmes asked them to set it on [[Earth]] and bring back the [[Sontaran]]s. This would help them capitalise on the costly ship interior and Sontaran costume used in ''[[The Time Warrior (TV story)|The Time Warrior]]''. | [[Script editor]] [[Robert Holmes]] was not a fan of six-part stories, believing that they were padded, so for season twelve, he decided to have one four-part story and one two-part story.
