Behind the scenes

  • Derek Jacobi, who voiced this version of the Master, would also later play the War Master in Utopia.
  • According to the production information text on the Scream Of The Shalka DVD, in original drafts of the script, instead of an android of the Master being the TARDIS Defence System, it was going to be a hologram of the Fifth Doctor. This was later changed so that it would be the Master instead.
