The [[Third Doctor]] visited Metebelis III and took a crystal back with him. It was no small task, requiring him to brave several dangers, making the trek alone. However, he eventually succeeded in finding a beautiful sapphire. He was able to use it break the hypnotic control [[BOSS]] had put [[Mike Yates]] under. Unfortunately, [[Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart]] was also entranced by the crystal and became unresponsive, requiring the annoyed Doctor to snap him out of it. The Doctor let Yates use the crystal to infiltrate [[Global Chemicals]], where he released [[James (The Green Death)|James]] from conditioning in the same manner he had been freed. Finally, the Doctor used it on [[Jocelyn Stevens|Stevens]], which cut him loose from BOSS's link to his mind. Stevens then sacrificed himself to overload BOSS and make the computer explode, also destroying the Global Chemicals Research Centre. The Doctor later gave the crystal to [[Jo Grant]] as a wedding present. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Green Death (TV story)|The Green Death]]'') Some time during her travels with her husband [[Clifford Jones]] in [[South America]] it terrified a group of Indian porters who thought it was bad luck, so she decided to return it to him and had it mailed back to [[UNIT HQ]] to look after it for the time being.

Shortly after regaining the use of his TARDIS, the Doctor promised Jo that he'd take her to Metebelis III to see the blue crystals in their natural setting. ([[GAME]]: ''[[Lost in Time (video game)|Lost in Time]]'') | |||
In the far future, [[spider]]s from [[Earth]] were accidentally brought to [[Metebelis III]]. They were mutated by the Metebelis crystals, developing into the [[Eight Legs]]. [[The Great One (Planet of the Spiders)|The Great One]], the leader of the Eight Legs, tried to increase her mental powers to infinity by using a web of the crystals. The spiders went back in time to [[Earth]] to take back the crystal that the Doctor had received back from Jo Grant. Once the web was completed with a perfect crystal the [[Third Doctor]] had brought her, the web overwhelmed her and she was destroyed. Due to the radiation of the caves, the Doctor was forced to [[regeneration|regenerate]] into his [[Fourth Doctor|fourth incarnation]].
