Uniquely, despite being a prose appearance, the Doctor in this story was still ''portrayed'' by [[William Hartnell]] in a very material way: a photoshoot with Hartnell in costume, two Dalek props, and actress [[Barbara Lord]] as [[Barbara (Barbara in Wonderland)|the titular Barbara]] (who, it is worth noting, had no relation to companion [[Barbara Wright]]). As the photograph was printed in colour, it constituted one of the two colour appearances by Hartnell as the Doctor, the second coming in the much later TV story ''[[The Three Doctors (TV story)|The Three Doctors]]''.
