Professor '''Herbert Clegg''' was an entertainer who had a mind-reading act, only to find to his dismay that he was developing real [[psychic power]]s such as [[clairvoyance]] and [[telekinesis]]. The [[Third Doctor]], who had become interested in researching psychic energy, discovered his secret, then contacted him and requested his assistance in his experiments. Clegg used [[psychometry]] on [[the Brigadier]]'s pocket watch, the Doctor's [[sonic screwdriver]], and a letter from [[Jo Grant]], but when he read the [[Metebelis crystal]] and saw visions of [[Eight Legs|giant spiders]], he died of fright-induced heart failure.
