Doctor Who pays tribute to late writer Terrance Dicks

‘Doctor Who’ paid tribute to Terrance Dicks on New Year’s Day (01.01.20).
The BBC’s science fiction favourite returned to kick off 2020 with the first part of an epic double header ‘Spyfall’, and bosses remembered the late writer after he passed away aged 84 over the summer.
At the end of the episode, a message appeared on screen which read: "Dedicated to the memory of the Masterful Terrance Dicks."
The screenwriter co-created the character of the Master, who made his return in this week with Sacha Dhawan taking on the role as the evil Time Lord opposite Thirteenth Doctor Jodie Whittaker.
Terrance was a writer and script editor on numerous episodes of the sci-fi show and is considered to be one of Doctor Who’s most significant contributors.
At the time of his death, The Agency said in a statement: "The Agency is sad to announce that Terrance Dicks died last Thursday 29th August after a short illness, aged 84.
"Author, screenwriter, script editor and producer, Terrance is best known as one of the original writers on the BBC classic television series ‘Doctor Who’.
"His final short story ‘Save Yourself’ will be published next month in BBC Books’ ‘Doctor Who: The Target Storybook’.
"Held in high regard by the ‘Doctor Who’ fanbase, Terrance’s writing has been an inspiration to many. He will be greatly missed."
Between 1968 and 1983, he wrote 35 episodes of the show – which included the legendary 20th anniversary special ‘The Five Doctors’ – while he worked as script editor on more than 150 between 1968 and 1974, covering the likes of Jon Pertwee and Patrick Troughton’s tenures as the Doctor.
As well as his work on the television show he also wrote more than 60 novelisations providing fans with more adventures in the TARDIS.
