While putting together a display of Doctor Who magazines today, I found a
flyer for a Doctor Who Chess set. I found it sitting on some magazines I
had already laid out, as though some invisible hand had set it there for
me. I imagine it fell out of an issue without my noticing it. It is one of
those sculpted Chess sets made by a mint. The White pieces are the good
guys, while the Black pieces are villains. By paging through various
Doctor Who magazines, I was able to identify most of the pieces I didn't
recognize right away. But then I got sidetracked by articles about Sarah
Jane Smith and Elisabeth Sladen. I was able to identify the full White
side, but the Black pieces had their backs turned in the photo, and I
didn't recognize a couple. Here is what I did recognize:

White:
King -- Doctor (There are seven White Kings, one for each Doctor from the
TV show)
Queen -- Leela
Bishops -- The Brigadier and Kamelion
Knights -- Jamie McCrimmon and Adric
Rook -- Tardis
Pawn -- K9

Black:
King -- Master
Queen -- unknown person with long hair
Bishops -- Cyberman and Draconian Emperor
Knights -- Sea Devil and Ice Warrior
Rooks -- unknown guys in armor and helmets
Pawns -- Daleks
