Doctor Who: Season 3

Mission to the Unknown is the only episode not to feature the Doctor, as it is a scene setter for the Dalek Masterplan. Per-episode titles ceased after the Gunfighters, with the story now carrying the name and each episode being numbered. Vicki elects to stay behind with the fleeing Trojans at the end of The Myth Makers. In The War Machines, DoDo leaves and Polly and Ben join as companions. Steven elects to stay behind as the leader of the Savages at the end of The Savages.
