Hulke began his association with ''Doctor Who'' as early as [[Season 1]], for which he contributed the storyline for ''[[The Hidden Planet]]'' (a.k.a. ''Beyond the Sun''), a serial which ultimately did not get accepted. Along with [[Terrance Dicks]], in ''[[The War Games]]'', he co-created the concept of the [[Time Lord]]s and offered viewers their first glimpse of [[Gallifrey]]. He also created the reptilian [[Silurian]]s, their cousins the [[Sea Devil]]s, and the [[Draconian]]s. For [[Target Books]], he wrote novelisations of every story he had written solo, and several he had worked on with other writers. | Hulke began his association with ''Doctor Who'' as early as [[Season 1]], for which he contributed the storyline for ''[[The Hidden Planet (TV story)|The Hidden Planet]]'' (a.k.a.
