Starring Peter Davison (Fifth Doctor) Sarah Sutton (Nyssa) Janet Fielding (Tegan Jovanka) Leonard Sachs - President Borusa Elspet Gray - Chancellor Thalia Michael Gough - Councillor Hedin Paul Jerricho - The Castellan Max Harvey - Cardinal Zorac Colin Baker - Commander Maxil Ian Collier - Omega / The Renegade Neil Daglish - Damon John D. Collins - Talor Alastair Cumming - Colin Frazer Andrew Boxer - Robin Stuart Maya Woolfe, Guy Groen - Hostel Receptionists Malcolm Harvey - The Ergon Written by Johnny Byrne Produced by John Nathan-Turner Directed by Ron Jones Synopsis Travelling with Nyssa the the TARDIS, the Doctor is attacked by a malign entity - a being of pure antimatter seeking to cross the dimensions. Although the invader is successfully repelled, the TARDIS is immediately recalled to Gallifrey, where the High Council of Time Lords sentence the Doctor to be executed to prevent any further attempts at bonding. It seems there is a traitor on Gallifrey. And what links the Renegrade and the disappearance of Tegan's cousin in Amsterdam? Two fates intertwined must battle for the future of the entire universe ... Background Season 20 of Doctor Who was un precedented, setting out to celebrate its long history with a succession of stories revisiting its own mythology. In 1973, the series had marked its 10th birthday with The Three Doctors, and introduced Omega as the villain of the piece. This brilliant but tragic figure from Gallifreyan legend was portrayed as little more than a ranting egomaniac on his first outing, and a decade later, an attempt to redress the balance seemed appropriate. Writer Johnny Byrne was initially faced with the challenge of combining two key plot elements; Tegan was to rejoin the TARDIS, and Amsterdam was to feature as the main location, since it had been decided by producer John Nathan-Turner that the series would undertake its first overseas filming since City of Death in 1979. Although Omega was something of an eleventh hour addition to the script, his presence ensured that Doctor Who's anniversary season opened on a suitably reflective note. Notably however, it is through Omega that we are permitted a further glimpse at the darker side Gallifreyan society, reminding us that treachery is not unthinkable amongst the elite of the High Council. Arc of Infinity not only foreshadows events in The Five Doctors, but also offers an unprecedented glimpse at the future face of the Doctor himself ...
