Season 10 of Doctor Who ran from 30 December 1972 to 23 June 1973. It starred Jon Pertwee as the Third Doctor and Katy Manning as Jo Grant. The season opened with The Three Doctors and concluded with The Green Death.
Overview[[edit] | [edit source]]
It consisted of five serials comprised of twenty-six episodes. William Hartnell returned in a cameo as the First Doctor and Patrick Troughton in a more substantial role as the Second Doctor in The Three Doctors. This story marked the end of the Doctor's exile on Earth, opening up the series to more off-world adventures and beginning a gradual reduction of UNIT-related stories.
Jo Grant left this season, becoming the first companion to appear for three complete seasons. Roger Delgado made his final appearance in the role of the Master in Frontier in Space. Owing to the actor's accidental death, the Master never had a proper send-off and would not return as a semi-regular character until 1981
