Search Out Space (TV story)

Search Out Space was a special edition of Search Out Science, a children's education programme in which Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred appeared as the Seventh Doctor and Ace.

It was broadcast nearly a year after Survival, which marked the end of the original Doctor Who series. John Leeson provided the voice of K9 for the first time since The Five Doctors.

Story notes

 * Search Out Space was included as an extra on the DVD of Survival.
 * The Doctor and his companions were invited to appear on a quiz show in the short story Storm in a Tikka, which bridges this story with the events of the television story Dimensions in Time.
 * Though the series had been cancelled in 1989, and this is not a valid DWU story, the fact this story premiered in 1990 means the Doctor Who mythos technically enjoyed 27 straight years where a new Doctor Who adventure in some form or another premiered on television, as opposed to merely 26.
