Untitled (DWM 171 short story)

The Brief Encounter short story published in DWM 171 was untitled. The story is highly unusual for a Brief Encounter in its introduction of a new character. The Brief Encounter series usually concentrated on offering readers insights into existing characters.

Summary
Renegade Time Lord and Designer Berenyi arranges the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963 Dallas.

Characters

 * Berenyi

Continuity

 * This story and PROSE: Who Killed Kennedy both go into the origins and people behind the Kennedy assassination. However, both stories contradict one another: this tale suggests that Berenyi was behind it, whilst Who Killed Kennedy suggests it was the Master.
 * As Who Killed Kennedy would appear to be more "canon", i.e. the events tie-in with several televised UNIT-related Doctor Who adventures, it would perhaps be best to class this Brief Encounter story as "imaginary".
