A New Body for the Master | The Keeper of Traken | Doctor Who | BBC

Peace has been restored in the Traken Union and all seems well. But then Tremas notices a longcase clock which definitely doesn't belong on his planet. Upon inspecting it, he finds himself paralysed while a horribly disfigured man comes out from inside the clock. Surprising clip from The Keeper of Traken, first shown in 1981.

[@cameronjosephvideos5942]

Having watched this episode i never realized how messed up this must be for Nyssa. The Master killed her father and everytime she see's the Master she would see him walking about in her fathers body.

[@michaelpuglisi6767]

Not to mention the Master would later be responsible for the destruction of her entire planet…

[@ptolemeeselenion1542]

Wow.

[@mpittard21]

@carolinewoodward1016 Yet that angle felt dropped later on.

[@VlogsWLawson]

Anyone else notice how successful the Master was in this episode. 1: Have a disguise that actually fools the Doctor until the last moment 2: Become pretty much omnipotent 3: If that fails, possess the man who resisted you most and do exactly as the decaying Masters have always desired. "A New Body... At last!"

[@danielappleton153]

I really hope they bring him back during Peter Capaldi's time as the Doctor. I would've liked to have seen him go mano y mano against Matt Smith. John Simm got tired of playing the Master, though.

[@augustusiii9772]

it wasnt, it just had a working chameleon circuit so it would actually disguise itself.

[@LanceHerod-n5d]

A bit of a homage to the 1976 story a Deadly Assassin where the Master's TARDIS was also then disguised as a clock

It's like the Cybermen-he took someone's body and turned it into something it is not

[@maxredjasper55]

@@SplotchTheCatThing good question. I am fairly certain she saw him in Castrovalva, but I think the other times it was Tegan or Turlough who saw him.

[@redjirachi1]

The Master: The Doctor never told you what happened to your father Nyssa: He told me enough, he told me you killed him! The Master: Yes, by stealing his body. And now, I am your father! Nyssa: No! That's impossible! The Master: If you will not accept me as your father, then perhaps you will accept me...as your Master. The Doctor: Do you really think quote-mining Star Wars is appropriate after what you did?! The Master: It's not like I'm going to get the opportunity again...well, maybe on Sarn

[@been01010]

The worst part is I can see this conversation actually happening.

Anthony Ainley may no longer be with us, but it was nice to have him within the Doctor Who series!

[@Eltonlaleham]

I think it was a damn shame in billions of ways that Anthony Ainley never got to play a villain in Blake's Seven which he said to me he would love to have appeared in as a villain in preference to playing a hero and Anthony said he would love to have worked with the regular cast of B7.

[@fadikhoory5350]

Although Delgado was the original if Ainley lived for a few more years, it would be nice for him to see John Simm's over the top master or even the Female master (missy) if he could have lived longer!

[@peterward2275]

I remember seeing that first shot of Ainley's Master and thinking how much he resembled the original at that moment. It gave me thrill chills at the time! Great directing!

[@TerryTheNewsGirl]

Did anyone notice the time on the clock? Four minutes to twelve - four episodes to Peter Davison (Logopolis). Subtle clue, but good one.

[@colinmcphan]

Peter was okay but God did I miss Tom. I liked how unique, believable, natural, funny and unpredictable Tom was in the role. He truly revolutionized how far you could take the character and loved the character of the Doctor very much.

[@TerryTheNewsGirl]

He was wonderful. Unfortunately he drove the crew to distraction, by not sticking to the script arguing with people over stuff, trying to direct the damn thing. And having strops on set with Lalla Ward which made the whole recording experience miserable at times. Peter Moffatt got really annoyed with them both a few times. But as a character you can't fault him, I agree with you.

[@julietfischer5056]

Baker had psychological issues at the time. He's gotten much better.

[@fucheduck]

the series was good partly to Baker, it certainly didn't show as being flaky. it did with Davison and later on. Barry Letts is also a good producer I wish he hadn't left the helm to JNT who stunk at it.

[@tost6956]

JNT made it last for 9 more series - you can say whatever you want about him if you feel the need, but he was quite enterprising. It's about time 80s Who got a bit more respect. 'It (the show) certainly didn't show as being flaky. it did with Davison and later on' - I assume you're referring to the sublime second Baker and McCoy?

[@raksh9]

Man, I wasn't even a teenager when this screened. The Master had long been my favorite villain from the Jon Pertwee series, but seeing him do this... it was terrifying and glorious. It wasn't until much later that I understood just how bad this act was, literally carjacking someone's body and ousting their soul. Still one of the most awesome Master moments.

[@ptolemeeselenion1542]

Wow.

[@johntaylor6345]

This needed to happen because Anthony Ainley was going to play the Master in the next story Logopolis. It was logical for the Geoffrey Beevers Master to take over Anthony Ainleys Tremas body for Anthony Ainley to become the new Master. A brilliant piece of television.

[@stallion66]

And think he was going to take over The Doctor’s body.

[@danielpetersen4123]

The master doesn't leave the brakes on.

[@mushroomhead3619]

Well he did here because you can hear the TARDIS shrieks.

[@OblivionWalkerVerified]

apparently the thud is the breaks being on. not the shreek?

[@Callum_2613]

I hate that Moffat wrote that, so you’re telling me all the other time lords that have used tardises in the show leave the brakes on

Callum Jordan yep apparently the Time Lords don’t know how to handle their own technology. Thanks Moff. And thank you River 🎶 Mary Sue, Mary Sue. Oh how my heart yearns for you 🎶.

[@raksh9]

The Master doesn't mess around, that's for sure.

[@thurstonclevehicks]

I would rate this as the most terrifying scene in the history of Dr Who. Tremas was so sweet and decent... to be taken over by this decaying demon, what a shock! This also served as a chilling prelude to the Doctor's upcoming regeneration.

[@jonathanwhite5688]

Spot on ! It was quite unsettling ending with four minutes to midnight on the clock!…..

A great and underrated Tom Baker story I really recommend this story.

[@AndrewChapman]

I love it.

[@bootlegamnesiac2474]

XDEV I never really liked it, but it's VERY important to watch.

[@TimeLordParadox]

+Daniel Appleton Time Lords generally can't. it's just that the Master will go to any lengths to stay alive. He uses other alien (none Time Lord) techniques to take over other people's bodies, like here he uses residual reality warping powers powers he had left over from when he was, for a brief period, the Keeper of Traken. He'd already reached his 12th regeneration limit you see and needed a way to continue on before his final body gave out.

[@danielappleton5067]

+TimeLordParadox Time Lords have very strong will - power. Especially the Master ! It would be interesting to speculate what would've happened if he had happened upon General Zod or Marvel's Dr. Doom. Or if " Missy " had had the ability to take over the Borg Queen, etc. The stuff that fanfiction is made of !

[@TimeLordParadox]

Daniel Appleton Aye, the Master does have an astounding willpower. You'd need to for someone to cope with living inside an aching rotting body which gives you constant pain every second of life for years on end. Part of that willpower is the ability to cling on to life until he find something to extend it which is I suspect why he manages to survive the impossible. It would be interesting to see him go up against other fictional characters. We always think of the Doctor going up against other characters, but what of the Master, he's the Hyde to the Doctors Jekyll and just as resourceful. Part of me thinks there is a good opportunity the Master would dominate all of them (Depending on the incarnation), but he has at times bitten off more than he can chew. He actually went up against Sherlock Homles' Moriarty (original book version) in the Land of Fiction and killed him quite easily. (It was a short comic released ages ago. But is part of the 8th Doctor anthology collection.) Just to go back to my previous comment and add a bit though. If the Master could use a Time Lord technique to take over another body he'd have done it years ago and not waited as long as he did until Tremas came along.

[@UnchainedEruption]

ojima510 He's sort of meh. Not ostensibly bad, but not that good. Roger Delgado was far superior.

[@mr.barcode3186]

My favorite master has got to be Geoffrey Beevers. He's pretty good in this story, but he's PHENOMENAL in the audios. He is such a great villain, and I love the Shakespearean vibe that his character gives off. Cold, manipulative, cunning, and just pure evil. Not to mention that the decrepit body is really creepy, and definitely adds to the 'evil' vibe (and is incredibly well-made). His voice is so perfect for a calculating genius; it's so... cool! So yeah, I LOVE Beevers as the Master. Delgado and Ainley are close runner-ups, though.

[@ZakJordan98]

"Master" is my favourite audio featuring his incarnation of The Master, and now thanks to Big Finish , Geoffrey Beevers is now one of my favorite incarnations of The Master

[@mr.barcode3186]

Well sure. I mean, my favorite Big Finish audio ever is "The Light at the End", which is a far more worthy 50th anniversary special than Day of the Doctor. And Beevers is brilliant in it!

[@ZakJordan98]

***** He is absolutely phenomenal. Light At The End was how i was introduced to Big Finish. I saw the trailer in the run up to the 50th which intrigued me. And in The Two Masters trilogy he is phenomenal along with Alex MacQueen's version of The Master who i would love to see live action

[@genisisarc]

Tremas is anagram of master. Brillant clue carrying on the tradition that started with Roger Degardo's Master

"Petty"? The Ainley Master destroyed a large portion of the Universe in a bid to gain control of it. The Pratt Master was perfectly willing to destroy Gallifrey's entire stellar system to get his hands on immortality. The Delgado Master - on two seperate occasions - tried to harness another beings almost godlike powers. Petty? I don't think so. Now, I like Simm's Master... but Last of the Time Lords and The End of Time aren't all that (the former is just downright silly).

***** Missy was great at one thing, manipulation. She basically wanted to get back at the Doctor, by first giving him that army, which would mean either he would use it or destroy it (with them all having been human at one point), and later he was the one to kill her, both things the Doctor would always regret, albeit Danny and the Brigadier took that off his hands. I think we will see better Missy stories, if they're not written by Moffat.

I really felt sorry for Nissa, she lost her father, her people and her home planet. She was the last of the Tracken race.

[@timrob12]

Ainley was a brilliant master, despite actually just being a body that the master took control of. As far as I know, Ainley and Roberts were the only Masters who couldn't regenerate.

[@Hoodied]

as she walks into shot, Nissa was looking at the Master's Tardis as it disappeared, but she doesn't take notice whatsoever

[@TheSixthDoctor]

Sometimes, bringing the Master back takes its time. It took the Master 3 years to reappear on screen between "Frontier in Space" and "The Deadly Assassin", and another 5 years on from that story to "The Keeper of Traken", after which he became a regular on-screen adversary for the Fifth Doctor. He wasn't seen that often from "Planet of Fire" on - only 2 more times in the classic series. You just need to be patient and eventually he will return.

Yeah that was a classic trope with the Master, whenever in disguise his name was always an anagram of master.

[@DalekTheSupreme]

He had been found injured on a planet whose name I forget and rescued by a rogue Time Lord. That was his thirteenth life, and a Time Lord can only regenerate 12 times, so he had to steal a body to survive.

[@grahampearson5283]

Nyssa doesn't realise that her father has had his body taken over by the Master. Tremas merges into the decaying body of the Master as the latter ran out of regenerations.

[@azurerainbow4637]

That lady who told Nyssa and her father that the new Keeper of Traken didn't notice the longcase clock as she was on her way to her quarters. Even if she had,she would probably be paralyzed instead of Tremas. The Master was taking a look on the screen in his TARDIS's console room,waiting for the right person to merge his body with his victim before he reached the end of his 12th regeneration.

[@E762RoB12]

The Timelords resurrected him during the Time War (giving him a new set of regenerations), to which he ran away to the end of the universe hid himself as a human and then opened the watch, got shot, regenerated. Not hard to understand man

[@dsurrey-6559]

Love this story & the music.

[@azurerainbow4637]

Strange that when the Master merged with the body of Tremas of Traken to enter his 13th regeneration before it was too late, he also got some new clothing during the change before Nyssa returned after hearing his call for help when he got paralyzed.

I've got to say, I much prefer Geoffrey Beever's Master over Peter Pratt's version from Deadly Assassin. No offence to Peter, but I couldn't really buy into the performance with him having the Halloween mask on (as opposed to the 15-odd layers of make up on Geoffrey's face lol), not to mention it lacks a certain creepy charm that Geoffrey's performance gives in this story.

[@bradleywillard2361]

And also when Peter Pratt is wearing that mask, it is sometimes difficult to understand to hear what he is saying

Peter Pratt was excellent in "The Deadly Assassin" and that episode was one of the best Doctor Who ever had.

[@russelltietjen4407]

Oh, yeah, Deadly Assassin was really good, easily in my top 5 Tom Baker stories, but what I mean is that I couldn't get into the performance because of the mask. Yes, I know it's really petty, but it just makes him look like the standard monster of the week to me and it muffles him a bit. I should clarify that I didn't mean he was bad, just not one of my favourites, especially when compared to Beevers

We only saw the TARDIS with a working chameleon circuit once or twice during the Peter Davison or Colin Baker eras.

The Doctor's TARDIS did get to change its shape after the chameleon circuit was restored,during Colin Baker's era. But it was temporarily fixed and broke down after it changed back into a London Police Box.
