Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart's Prison Office Wall Maps (Including World Map)

Wall-mounted maps (including a global map) covering the Prison Governor's Office, where the Brigadier pores over them to track the Master's nerve gas missile threat amid post-escape chaos. The Doctor jabs a finger at them, redirecting the Brigadier from Barnham's plight and UNIT fractures to the urgent plot. Their fixed display anchors operational planning as Sergeant Benton reports and Yates radios in, cutting through emotional standoffs with stark strategic lines. The maps include a detailed world map used for global threat assessment alongside regional prison-specific maps.
