'''The Hidden Planet''', also known as '''Beyond the Sun''' was an unused serial in the earliest years of ''[[Doctor Who]]''. At one stage it was intended for the fifth serial of [[Season 1]]; later it was intended to be the second serial of [[Season 2]] before it was dropped outright. It was written by [[Malcolm Hulke]] and would have featured a [[twin planet]] to [[Earth]] which would be dominated by women. It was moved to later in the season and replaced by ''[[The Red Fort (TV story)|The Red Fort]]'', and later [[TV]]: ''[[The Dalek Invasion of Earth]]''. However, it had to be rewritten after the departure of [[Susan Foreman]], and again to accommodate that of [[Barbara Wright]] and [[Ian Chesterton]]. It was abandoned when the season came to a close.{{fact}}

The idea of a twin planet to Earth would be reused in [[TV]]: ''[[The Tenth Planet]]''. The idea of a female-dominated race would be given to the [[Drahvin]]s in [[TV]]: ''[[Galaxy 4 (TV story)|Galaxy 4]]''.
