The villain of the story was a creature "Entirely made out of chronal energy". In the beginning of the episode, the resistance group led by Summerfield would try to kill this creature by sending it into the time vortex, only for it to escape into the past, where it would possess Professor Hawkspur in 1936 and travel to the future to kill the Fourth Doctor on the Pharos Project. This story was to also feature almost all the classic monsters, with many of them being redesigned or feature totally new developments of the original design. In the original script, the story introduced a new type of Cyberman, the Cybercommander. | The villain of the story was a creature "Entirely made out of chronal energy".

{{quote|'The Cybermen were not like any we've ever seen before,' says Rigelsford. 'There was a specific Cyberman who was being made by the people at Henson's Creature Workshop. The guy who designed it was Chris Fitzgerald . It had holes in its knuckles and there was a point where it held up its hand, made a fist, and six-inch blades shot out of its knuckles! It was like Wolverine out of the X-Men comics; Cyberrine!'<ref name="TSV" />}} | |||
