'''''Explain My Mystery''''' was a game show on which the [[Second Doctor|the Doctor]] once appeared. It was hosted by [[Perry Conway]], who challenged its panelists to explain real-life mysteries recounted by ordinary citizens.

[[Exile on Earth|Limited to]] [[Earth]] by the [[Time Lord]]s prior to his regeneration into [[Third Doctor|his next incarnation]], the Doctor lived in luxury at the [[Carlton Grange Hotel]] and became a newspaper-headlining celebrity. ([[TVC]]: ''[[Action in Exile]]'', ''[[The Mark of Terror]]'') He was therefore a natural candidate for inclusion on the panel of ''Explain My Mystery''. On the night he participated, he explained [[Swiggings|Mrs Swiggings]]' mysterious "bumps in the night" with great ease, but ran into difficulty with [[Glenlock-Hogan|Mr Glenlock-Hogan]]'s tale of "[[animated scarecrows (Time Lords)|walking scarecrows]]". Undeterred by being stumped on national television, the Doctor left the studio with Glenlock-Hogan to investigate the farm on which these scarecrows appeared. There, they revealed that they had created the mystery in order to lure the Doctor to them. Animated by the [[Time Lord]]s, these scarecrows then captured the Doctor and forced him to regenerate.
