A '''''[[TV Terrors]]''''' comic story was published in ''[[TV Comic]]'' [[TVC 709|709]].


In the usual tradition of ''TV Terrors'', it saw the protagonists attempt to visit the stars of their favourite television series, and getting into mischief. In this case, the kids tried to visit [[First Doctor|Dr. Who]] after seeing him on TV. This was perhaps one of the very first instances of a story showing the ''[[Doctor Who (in-universe)|Doctor Who]]'' franchise existing [[DWU|in-universe]], something that would [[Doctor Who - list of appearances|become more prevalent over time]]. However, the comic is not explicit about what show the Doctor had appeared in, just that they saw him on TV.

The story, notably, is not a ''Doctor Who'' parody, as no element of the series is lampooned. The illustrations of [[the TARDIS]] are consistent with the unique design used by [[Neville Main]] in the mainline ''[[TV Comic]]'' stories, although the front door is erroneously illustrated opening in one large piece.
