H is for... Hitler


A Teselecta justice machine was sent back in time to punish Adolf Hitler, the German Fuhrer, at a point just before his death. The machine arrived several years too early, in 1938, but the attack was interrupted anyway when the TARDIS crashed through Hitler's office window and struck the disguised Teselecta. Mels, a friend of Amy and Rory, had hijacked the ship and decided that they should use it to go back and kill the dictator. Hitler attempted to shoot his would-be assassin, but the shot missed and hit Mels instead. Rory punched the Fuhrer in the face then locked him in a cupboard. Mels then regenerated into River Song.

Played by: Albert Welling. Appearances: Let's Kill Hitler (2011).
  • Although he has only appeared in the TV series once, Hitler has been referenced in the programme on a couple of occasions (e.g. De Flores in Silver Nemesis suggests that the Fuhrer possessed the bow of the Nemesis statue), he has featured prominently in spin-off books and audios.
