Gatwick Air Control Transmitter (Director's Office)

A console device located in the Director's office at Gatwick, used for voice contact with Gatwick Air Control. The Doctor exploits its existence as part of a bluff about the Commandant deprocessing captured original humans, forcing the Chameleons to verify his claims. The device serves as a critical communication tool in the narrative, enabling the Doctor to speak directly to the Commandant over the radio. Blade directs the Doctor to negotiate using this transmitter, while Nurse Pinto observes. The device crackles with the Commandant's responses, channeling the pivotal exchange that exposes the Director's lies and triggers Blade's violent coup. It also becomes a focal point for Chameleon infighting, with the Director initially ordering its destruction to block verification before being coerced into using it.
