In the second episode of the four-part story "The Deadly Assassin," the Doctor (Tom Baker) is on trial for his life, accused of murdering the President of his home world Gallifrey. Actually, the Doctor has been framed for the killing by his old nemesis, the Master (Peter Pratt). Complicating matters is the ancient Time Lord edict that all political prisoners be set free upon the inauguration of a new President -- and the efforts by the Master to prolong his own existence with the aid of Gallifrey's sacred Eye of Harmony. Written by Robert Holmes, "The Deadly Assassin, Episode 2" first aired on November 6, 1976. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
