Unproduced TV story
Prison in Space began as an unproduced serial intended to be part of Season 6 by Dick Sharples. It would have featured a female-dominated planet, previously used in another unproduced serial The Hidden Planet. It would feature Zoe Heriot starting a sexual revolution, before being brainwashed and then deprogrammed by Second Doctor, who smacks her on the bottom. It would also have featured Jamie McCrimmon in drag. The story was rewritten when Frazer Hines decided to leave and then again when he decided to stay. Executives were unhappy with it, but Sharples refused to rewrite and it was replaced by DW: The Krotons. [source needed]
Continuity
- Zoe refers to her encounters with the Daleks (CC: Fear of the Daleks), the Cybermen (DW: The Wheel in Space, DW: The Invasion) and the Quarks whom they had recently met on Dulkis (DW: The Dominators) as well as the Yeti (DW: The Abominable Snowmen, DW: The Web of Fear), whom she has never been depicted encountering in any media.
- The Doctor and Jamie both refer to the Battle of Culloden. (DW: The Highlanders)
- Jamie would disguise himself as a woman once again in CC: The Glorious Revolution.
Timeline
- Prison in Space occurs after IDW: The Forgotten (flashback)
- Prison in Space occurs before DW: The Krotons
