Brigadier General Cutler was the American military officer in command of the Snowcap base in Antarctica.

Biography[]

When Mondas approached Earth in December 1986, Cutler arrogantly refused to listen to the First Doctor's advice and planned to use the Z-Bomb against the Cybermen, regardless of the possible danger that it posed to Earth. Cutler was obsessed with saving the life of his son, Terry Cutler, and was perfectly willing to risk the safety of the Earth to that end.

When the warhead failed to launch, the increasingly unhinged Cutler realised that Ben Jackson had sabotaged it and was about to kill him and his friends when he himself was killed by Krang. (TV: The Tenth Planet)

Cutler had a son, Terry, (TV: The Tenth Planet) and a daughter, Pamela, who had become the only female general in the United States armed forces by 2006. (PROSE: Iceberg)

More than twenty years later in his personal timeline, Ben saw Cutler being interviewed on the news about the Snowcap at an earlier point in 1986. (PROSE: Mondas Passing)

Appearance[]

Cutler was a tall man with a firm jaw line, small dark eyes and close-cropped grey hair. He wore his uniform neatly buttoned. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Tenth Planet)
