'''''The Doctor's New Invention''''' was a parodical sketch based on ''[[Doctor Who]]'' that featured on ''[[It's a Square World (series)|It's a Square World]]''. | |||

[[Doctor Fotheringown]] is invited to be interviewed in a studio about his new invention, the first rocket set to be shot into space by British scientists.
