The Macra Terror (Animated)

The Macra Terror was the seventh serial of season 4 of Doctor Who. With this serial, the opening sequence used since the first episode was updated, now including a photo still of Patrick Troughton's head appearing and disappearing in the titles.

It was the first story to feature the lead actor's face in the opening title sequence, a tradition that carried on to the final episode of the classic series and returned with The Snowmen in the revived format.

Currently, all four episodes are missing from the BBC Archives. However, as of 25 March 2019, all four parts have been released in full animation on DVD, Blu-ray, special edition Steelbook and digital download in both colour and original black-and-white.
