Notes
- First appearance of the character Alpha Centurai since its last appearance in 1974’s “The Monster of Peladon“.
- Centurai was played by the same actress who played the character back in the 70’s (Ysanne Churchman). She had long since retired from acting and was coaxed back at age 92 to do this quick voiceover.

A Mark Gatiss story seems to either be adored or hated - no middle. This one I loved. Brought back the Ice Warriors properly - like all of them. We're on Mars, we meet their Queen, pic.twitter.com/iAoBxs6fhD

Liked this story a bunch. But the pants changing awesome moment is at the end when we get a reappearance of Alpha Centurai who we haven't seen since 1972's Monster of Peladon. pic.twitter.com/uRUA79Hldd
