The serial marked several milestones for the program. Most notably, it was the first [[List of multi-Doctor stories|multi-Doctor]] story, establishing the concept of the Doctor being able to meet his past incarnations. As such, it also marked the return of [[William Hartnell]] and [[Patrick Troughton]] to the roles of the [[First Doctor]] and [[Second Doctor]] respectively. Narratively, this tenth anniversary special also ended the three year long story arc of the Third Doctor being [[Exile on Earth|exiled]] to [[Earth]], which had begun in [[Season 7 (Doctor Who 1963)|season 7]] in 1970. Additionally, the special saw [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart|Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart]] and [[Sergeant Benton]] enter [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] for the first time. It was incidentally the first use of the phrase "it's [[Dimensional transcendentalism|bigger on the inside than it is on the outside]]," notably by the Third Doctor as a suggestion for what Benton ''should'' say. | The serial marked several milestones for the program.
