'''''Killers of the Dark''''', also known in fan circles as '''''The Killer Cats of Geng Singh''''', was an unproduced six-part serial written by [[David Weir]] that was to have concluded [[Season 15]]. [[Graham Williams]] decided another [[Gallifrey]] story needed to be written after the success of ''[[The Deadly Assassin (TV story)|The Deadly Assassin]]'' and commissioned Weir with the task. It would feature Cat-People native to Gallifrey who would live in a culture similar to that of many Asian countries. It would also feature a scene set in a gladiatorial arena, filled with Cat-People. When run past script editor [[Anthony Read]] and director [[Gerald Blake]], it was cancelled as they believed it would be too hard to film (it was, reportedly, so ambitious that it would have been too expensive to make even on a film budget). Williams and Read then wrote ''[[The Invasion of Time (TV story)|The Invasion of Time]]'' to replace it. | '''''Killers of the Dark''''', also known in fan circles as '''''The Killer Cats of Geng Singh''''', was an unproduced six-part serial written by [[David Weir]] that was to have concluded [[Season 15]].
