James Clark Maxwell

James Clark Maxwell was a scientist who investigated electromagnetism in 1854. (TV: The Evil of the Daleks)

In 1865, his legs were run over by Faraday in an experiment with a 24-horse "time carriage". (PROSE: The Beasthouse)

Maxwell was mentioned by Theodore Maxtible in a conversation with the Second Doctor in 1866. (TV: The Evil of the Daleks)

In 1867, the Fifth Doctor "borrowed" an electromagnetic field generator from James Maxwell, his friend. (AUDIO: The Haunting of Thomas Brewster)

Behind the scenes

Maxwell famously developed Maxwell's equations.
