synopsis
In the ninth episode of the 12-part story "The Dalek Masterplan," the Meddling Monk (Peter Butterworth), a renegade Time Lord, unexpectedly offers to help the Doctor (William Hartnell) in his efforts to halt the Daleks' campaign of interplanetary destruction. More characteristically, however, the Monk double-crosses everyone at the first opportunity. Fortunately, Sara Kingdom (Jean Marsh) is on hand to duke it out with the Enemy (the Daleks, that is). Written by Dennis Spooner, "Golden Death" originally aired on January 8, 1966; this episode apparently no longer exists.
