+}}'''Sentreal''' was a representative of his home [[galaxy]] at the first meeting of the [[Galactic Council]]. Like the others, he allied himself with the [[Dalek]]s in their plan to conquer the [[Solar System]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Mission to the Unknown]]'') He did not appear at the seventh meeting, his place taken by [[Zephon]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Daleks' Master Plan]]'')
-He had apparently been persuaded to join the alliance by [[Zephon]]. By remaining low-key at the meetings, he survived until the final meeting, where he strongly challenged [[Mavic Chen]], and was then imprisoned by the [[Dalek]]s. With [[Celation]], [[Beaus]], Mavic Chen and [[Malpha]], the remaining members of the Council, he agreed to go back to his own people and warn them about the Daleks' invasion plans and to fight against them, upon their escape from Kembel. ([[TV]]: ''[[Mission to the Unknown (TV story)|Mission to the Unknown]]'','' [[The Daleks' Master Plan (TV story)|The Daleks' Master Plan]]'')
+Sentreal, a strange half-creature, half-vegetable being, was all black, apart from two burning, bright eyes in his cylindrical head. His body looked as though it consisted of several open cones stacked on top of each other. ([[TV]]: ''[[Mission to the Unknown]]'')
-Sentreal, a tall alien, his face indistinguishable due to the dark visor and chlorine fumes he breathed, wore a protective suit, and his helmet had an antenna on top. ([[TV]]: ''[[Mission to the Unknown (TV story)|Mission to the Unknown]]'', ''[[The Daleks' Master Plan (TV story)|The Daleks' Master Plan]]'')
 == Behind the scenes ==
-* The actor who played Sentreal in ''[[Mission to the Unknown]]'' did not receive a credit, but [[Sam Mansary]] played an "Alien Delegate", and is of African descent, which matches the still shots from the episode which appear to show a dark-skinned actor inside Sentreal's space suit.
+The actor who played Sentreal did not receive a credit, but [[Johnny Clayton]] and [[Len Russell]] played "Alien Delegates", while [[Pat Gorman]] played a "Planetarian". It remains unclear, to date, which of them played Sentreal.
-* Sentreal is shot and killed by [[Mavic Chen]] in the [[The Mutation of Time (novelisation)|novelisation]]. In the televised story, Chen shoots [[Gearon]], not Sentreal.
