Newscaster 2 (Doctor Who and the Space War)

A newscaster from Earth once introduced a film report about Congressman Brook and his populist anti-Draconian sentiments. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Space War)
== Behind the scenes ==
* Though the newscaster was cast with Bill Mitchell for episode six of Frontier in Space, director Paul Bernard made a last-minute decision to use only the footage involving Congressman Brook at a political rally, calling for war with Draconia. Although the newscaster is mentioned in the novelisation, as well as still being credited both on-screen and in Radio Times, he makes no actual appearance in televised Doctor Who. Incidentally, the novelisation makes no distinction between this newscaster and the one played by Louis Mahoney in episode one. It is possible, therefore, to believe that this character doesn't exist at all in any form of Doctor Who.
* It can only be assumed that the character's outfit was identical to that worn by the newscaster in episode one — namely a futuristic purple tunic fastened with three large silver buttons on the left shoulder, with a circular black and white design on the chest. Unfortunately, this cannot be confirmed as the original 625 line PAL colour videotape of episode six featuring Mitchell's appearance as the newscaster has long since been erased and reused.
