After spending much of the following [[March]] attempting to get his life back together, Stevens was commissioned by his friend [[Henry Spencer]], the non-fiction editor of a London-based publishing house to write a book exploring what would have become of JFK if he had not been assassinated in [[Dallas]], [[Texas]]. He also found employment as a freelance journalist for the magazine ''[[Metropolitan]]''. This gave him the financial freedom to continue his investigation into the Doctor and UNIT for another six months. That [[November]], Stevens attended the demonstration of the [[Keller Machine|Keller Process]] at [[Stangmoor Prison]]. It was at the prison that he saw one of the "Doctor" operatives for the first time. He described this Doctor as "an ageing dandy" with a "hawkish nose," "piercing eyes" and a "lived-in face." He was accompanied by a[[Jo Grant| small, mousy looking woman with a pleasant face]]. Over the course of the next several days, Stangmoor Prison was the scene of two prison riots before it was recaptured by UNIT. Stevens noted that, at the time, UNIT was supposed to have been providing security at the [[World Peace Conference]] and speculated that the Doctor's presence at the demonstration of the Keller Process could signify that UNIT was involved in mind control experiments. | After spending much of the following [[March]] attempting to get his life back together, Stevens was commissioned by his friend [[Henry Spencer]], the non-fiction editor of a London-based publishing house to write a book exploring what would have become of JFK if he had not been assassinated in [[Dallas]], [[Texas]].

In [[December]] 1970, Stevens met a young homeless woman named [[Dodo Chaplet]], who had been committed to a sychiatric institution called [[Glasshouse]] after the events of C-Day due to her outlandish claims to have met [[Monoid|one-eyed reptile men]] and [[Wild West]] gunfighters and to have played a game with [[ | In [[December]] 1970, Stevens met a young homeless woman named [[Dodo Chaplet]], who had been committed to a sychiatric institution called [[Glasshouse]] after the events of C-Day due to her outlandish claims to have met [[Monoid|one-eyed reptile men]] and [[Wild West]] gunfighters and to have played a game with [[Celestial Toyroom|living dolls]]. Dodo told Stevens that the {{Delgado|n=Director}} of the Glasshouse had subjected her to cruel mind control experiments and continually questioned her about doctors. She was left with [[Amnesia|considerable gaps in her memory]] to the point that she could not even remember her mother. After allowing Dodo to stay at his flat for the night, Stevens quickly grew extremely fond of her and invited her to stay with him on a more permanent basis. They eventually fell in love. | ||
In [[May]] [[1971]], shortly after the broadcast of the disastrous opening of [[Devil's Hump]] on the [[BBC3]] series ''[[The Passing Parade]]'' which resulted in the death of [[Gilbert Horner|Professor Gilbert Horner]], it was announced that a terrorist named {{Delgado|n=Victor Magister}} had been captured in the nearby village [[Devil's End]]. He was charged with Horner's murder as well as causing Black Thursday, the plague outbreak and the failure of the World Peace Conference, among other incidents. Stevens was sceptical that Magister - who was soon dubbed "the Master" by the press as his surname was [[Latin]] for "Master" - could have been responsible for all of these events as no one had ever heard of him until his capture was announced on [[television]]. Furthermore, he believed that the prejudicial reporting of Magister's alleged crimes during the summer of 1971 meant that it was unlikely that he could receive a fair trial in Britain. He appeared on ''The Passing Parade'' with Peter Wise and [[Malcolm Muggeridge]] to discuss whether the situation warranted him receiving a trial in camera. While on the programme, he attempted to reveal the existence of UNIT and C19 to the general public but the broadcast was cut off. The government eventually announced that Magister would receive such a trial and Stevens came to believe that the "massive media overkill" had been engineered to ensure that this would occur. | In [[May]] [[1971]], shortly after the broadcast of the disastrous opening of [[Devil's Hump]] on the [[BBC3]] series ''[[The Passing Parade]]'' which resulted in the death of [[Gilbert Horner|Professor Gilbert Horner]], it was announced that a terrorist named {{Delgado|n=Victor Magister}} had been captured in the nearby village [[Devil's End]].
