'''''Spearhead from Space''''' was the first serial of [[season 7]] of ''[[Doctor Who]]''. Continuing from the final episode of ''[[The War Games (TV story)|The War Games]]'', it marked a significant change in the format of ''Doctor Who''. The Doctor was from now on serving his [[Time Lord]]-imposed sentence of [[exile on Earth]]. It also continued some elements from ''[[The Web of Fear (TV story)|The Web of Fear]]'' and ''[[The Invasion (TV story)|The Invasion]]'' in depicting a renewal of the Doctor's association with [[UNIT]] and re-introducing [[Nicholas Courtney]]'s [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart|Brigadier]] as head of its British branch. Both would be regular features of this era of the programme. | '''''Spearhead from Space''''' was the first serial of [[season 7]] of ''[[Doctor Who]]''.
