Originally, the fifth story of season 18 was ''Sealed Orders'' by novelist [[Christopher Priest (novelist)|Christopher Priest]] before being abandoned. [[Stephen Gallagher]], who had written a number of radio plays, was called upon for a replacement, resulting in ''Warriors' Gate''. Commissioned in March 1980, this was Gallagher's first script for ''Doctor Who'' and had the working title ''Dream Time''. The story was influenced by a radio serial he had done in 1979 called "The Babylon Run" as well as the films of [[Jean Cocteau]], such as ''[[Orpheus (film)|Orphée]]'' (1950), in which mirrors provide a gateway into another world.<ref name=DVD>''Warriors' Gate'' BBC DVD liner notes, 2009</ref>
