The Power of Three
The Power of Three
This Story: Series 7, Story 4. Production Code 7.5
Overall: Story 229, Episode 794
Airdate: 22 Sep 2012
Written by Chris Chibnall
Directed by Douglas McKinnon
Notes
- This is the last filmed story for Karen Gillan & Arthur Darvill. Karen makes a cameo in Matt Smith’s last episode, but this is it for Arthur. They do have one aired story left after this due to production order.
- The actor that plays the Shakri interface system is Steven Berkhoff. I know him well as the primary Russian bad guy in the James Bond film “Octopussy”.
- Non canon material aside, this is the first appearance on screen of Jemma Redgrave as Kate Lethbridge-Stewart, the new head of UNIT, and the daughter of the Brigadier.

Love this! The cube invasion is VERY well done. The first story with Kate Stewart & UNIT. The premise here is what happens when the Doctor stays with Amy & Rory at their home vs pic.twitter.com/J7P0QmpXq2

them going with him. Rory's dad is BRILLIANT here. The end is crap, tho, but other than that, adored this story. Has an actor I loved in 007 film Octopussy - Steven Berkoff. pic.twitter.com/K5DXwmPk6i
