Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]

  • The Book of Rassilon was first mentioned in 1987 (five years prior to the release of Cat's Cradle in the short story TARDIS Stolen!, from The Doctor Who Fun Book, where the Master attempts to blacken the First Doctor's reputation by noting that one line of the Book states "Beware of men in white wigs". However, due to its parodical nature, this story is not currently considered valid on this Wiki.
