Players (Dicks novel)
Players is a BBC Books original novel written by Terrance Dicks and based on the long-running British science fiction television series "Doctor Who". It features the Sixth Doctor and Peri meeting Winston Churchill during the Boer War and prior to the abdication of the would-be king Edward VIII. Flashbacks scenes feature the Second Doctor meeting Winston Churchill in 1915 during the First World War, these sequences serving as a partial prequel to Dick's subsequent novel "World Game", which is set during Season 6B.
