Dmitri Pavlovich
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich of Russia was a Russian aristocrat during the early 20th century. Along with his co-conspirators Prince Felix Yusupov and Vladimir Purishkevich, he was responsible for the murder of the Russian mystic Grigori Rasputin in December 1916. (PROSE: The Wages of Sin)
Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- In the original script of TV: The Power of the Doctor, the Spy Master, disguised as Rasputin, meets up with Prince Yusupov and seemingly gets shot. Two henchmen are then ordered to dump the body in the river. Although not named on script, only being referred to as "two henchmen", it can be inferred that these individuals were meant to be Pavlovich and Purishkevich. The scene was never shot.[1]
