SS Bernice

The SS Bernice was a 20th century cargo ship.

History
On one voyage, the Bernice was sailing from Bombay on 2 June 1926. Among the passengers on board were Major Daly and his daughter, Claire Daly. Two days later, the ship vanished in the Indian Ocean. The abandoned vessel was found and the mystery of the crew's disappearance was considered a variation on the Mary Celeste mystery.

In truth, the crew and passengers were abducted for display aboard a detailed replica of the Bernice inside Vorg's Miniscope. There they were visited by the Third Doctor and Jo Grant, who thought it real. Vorg used an aggrometer to affect the hostility of the Bernice's crew, resulting in John Andrews threatening the Doctor's life and chasing him around the ship.

Some Drashigs who escaped their area of the Miniscope attacked the Bernice. The crew fought back to no avail. With help from Vorg, the Doctor returned all the lifeforms in the Miniscope to their original places in time and space. The passengers and crew of the Bernice were returned to the ship in the Indian Ocean. (DW: Carnival of Monsters)


 * The replica of the Bernice also disappeared from the Miniscope, implying it may have been the actual ship.
