== Interesting bits from within ==
* K9 was designed for the series seeking to capitalise on the success of Star Wars by offering viewers a robotic character that combined the fussy English eccentricites of C-3PO with the cute factor of R2-D2.
* There were (for original filming), two K9 variants the principal radio-controlled filming prop and the lightweight, non-mechanised dummy version which had a noticeably different head. Both models last appeared in the 2006 return School Reunion.
* Filming locations for the roof of Megropolis in The Sun Makers was a tobacco factory in Bristol. Also used was a underground shelter in Camden Town London, built in World WarII to house seven thousand troops. It was accessed by a door at the back of Camden Town underground station.
* Actor Stephen Thorne has played the Daemon Azal, Omega, Eldrad and an Ogron in Frontier in Space.
