'''Cedric''' was a humanoid from the planet Quirk. He resembled a black-haired, dark-skinned, clean-shaven [[Human|human man]] wearing metallic clothes, and his voice had a high-pitched, metallic distortion to it. ([[TV]]: ''[[Search Out Space (TV story)|Search Out Space]]'')

Hailed as the most intelligent inhabitant of the planet Quirk, Cedric took part in the contest show ''[[The Ultimate Challenge (game show)|The Ultimate Challenge]]'', with the [[Seventh Doctor]] as host, and [[Ace]] (a [[human]]) and [[K9]] (a [[robot]]) as opponents. Throughout the game, Cedric proved reasonably clever, but on several occasions he made presumptions about the planet Earth (which he had never visited) which turned out to be flatly wrong. The first and most striking was his belief that the planet's shape was that of a cylinder rather than a sphere. ([[TV]]: ''[[Search Out Space (TV story)|Search Out Space]]'')

The library on [[Valcea]] stored archival footage of a [[black person|Black]] man in a "silver, figure-hugging spacesuit" who accompanied [[the Doctor (The Blue Angel)|a mustachioed incarnation of the Doctor]] and [[Iris Wildthyme]] in a fight with giant [[owl]]s. [[Marn (The Blue Angel)|Marn]] showed this footage to the [[Eighth Doctor]], who didn't remember the events. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Blue Angel (novel)|The Blue Angel]]'')
