Written by [[John Peel]], ''The Chase'' was the first of a series of [[Dalek]] story novelisations by Peel that were commissioned after [[Target Books]] reached an agreement with [[Terry Nation]] that would allow his remaining Dalek stories to be adapted as novels. (Prior to this, [[DW]]: ''[[The Chase]]'', and other Nation-penned Dalek episodes, were expected to remain in limbo, novelisation-wise). Around the time of this book's release, it's announced that a similar agreement had been reached with [[Eric Saward]] regarding his two Daleks serials, but ultimately these two stories were never adapted. |

The 26th season finale ultimately proves to be the final episode of the original series, and the last weekly episode to be broadcast until 2005. Final use of the [[Keff McCulloch]] theme music arrangement, while the current series logo would continue to be used for merchandise and books until [[1996]] and it and a version of the [[1987]] opening credits sequence would be used again in the [[1993]] special [[DW]]: ''[[Dimensions in Time]]''. Final 25-minute episode produced (although ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]'' revives the format in 2007. Although producer [[John Nathan Turner]] later says he was aware the series was going off the air, and [[Sophie Aldred]], in the documentary ''[[Thirty Years in the TARDIS]]'' says she was told it was cancelled, the BBC does not make any cancellation announcement, and it is widely assumed by fans, and hoped, that a 27th season would air in 1990. Final regular-series appearance of [[Sophie Aldred]] and [[Anthony Ainley]] (though both would reprise their characters in later productions not directly considered part of continuity. |

In an alternative timeline created by the Elder Gods in the hope of destroying Earth, the militant hardliner Vladimir Kryuchkov became the General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union following the death of Konstantin Chernenko in 1985 rather than the considerably more moderate Mikhail Gorbachev. Significant international tensions began following the democratic uprisings in the Eastern Bloc countries. Kryuchkov instructed the protestors to disperse and, when they refused to do so, he sent in the tanks.
The Red Army fired on the protesters, even the children, resulting in a massacre. Following the massacre, there were protests on the Berlin Wall, which resulted in the Soviet Union entering West Berlin on the pretext of restoring order.
