Nestle milk chocolate bars - picture 15

Today it’s picture fifteen of Doctor Who Fights Masterplan “Q” - the 15-part adventure on the backs of the NestlĂ© Doctor Who Milk Chocolate bars.
In the dramatic conclusion the beast, reacting to The Doctor’s interference, touches an electrode, killing the monster.
Realising the game is up, The Master flees - just as Jo arrives with reinforcements, placing the staff of the base under arrest.
Though the story was over, this wasn’t the end of the connection between NestlĂ© and Doctor Who.
A second set of milk chocolate bars were released in 1975 after Tom Baker had taken over the role.
