Object
Thal Guards' Uniforms (Including Helmets)
The Doctor and Harry don these scuffed Thal guards' uniforms (including helmets and protective suits) to masquerade as Thal guards, infiltrating the rocket silo's shadows. The uniforms consist of bulky protective suits and helmets, built for chemical warfare endurance but repurposed as disguise for infiltrating the Thal stronghold. The Doctor ambushes two Thal guards, stripping off these suits and helmets to enable covert entry, guard takedown, and urgent prisoner rally against the rocket launch and Davros's scheme. The helmets drop to the floor as identities are exposed, revealing the Doctor and Harry to Sarah Jane Smith and Sevrin amid the countdown hum.
