SEASON 16 (1978-1979)
The Key to Time is the umbrella title that links all six serials of the sixteenth season of
Doctor Who. The arc was originally conceived of by producer Graham Williams, who
had proposed it as part of his application for the producer's job in 1976.[1] The name
refers to the powerful artefact whose segments the Doctor, Romana and K-9 are
searching for during the season.
