Notes

Novelisation cover
  • This story puts a different spin on the opening moments of the television story Invasion of the Dinosaurs. Television viewers may have thought the opening moments of Dinosaurs directly followed the closing scene of The Time Warrior. This story suggests otherwise, depicting the first meeting of the Brigadier and Sarah Jane Smith.
  • A novelisation by Barry Letts was published in 1994. It was the final release in the long-running Target Books novelisation series.

  • This story was originally broadcast on BBC Radio 5 in 1993.
