Turlough and Trion

[Megalith]

I'm watching peter Divison for the umteenth time and again i fail to see just when exactly that turlough comes from Trion. As i see it suddenly it is taken for granted that he is alien and from trion and several episodes he mentions going home but at no point until the episode Planet of fire does he actually mention where it is he is from. Is there a missing episode here? I know that Kamelion was intended to be in more episodes than it appears in maybe Turloughs history was explained in these unmade episodes but why wasnt this cleared up.

 

Perhaps i missed something but i have watched this several times now and have yet to see any clues except the dark Guardian mention something about his people and that in Mawdryn Undead its mentioned he has no family.

 

Can anyone shed some light on this?

No light must be a plot hole then  :'(

Actually, right from the start he's dropping heavy hints that he's not from Earth.  He mentions how 'primitive' Earth is, expresses his desire to 'go home' and 'leave Earth' repeatedly, shows no surprise at high technology and has the ability to work some of it... they make it quite blatant, actually long before Trion is even mentioned.  Besides... they never asked exactly which planet he was from, and do you think that Turlough's the type to offer information just for the heck of it?  He only mentioned where he was from because it became important in a very immediate way in Planet of Fire. ^^

True he doesnt give away much :) but it is kinda taken for granted that the doc knows where he wants to go as he asks to go home but changes his mind. Turlough is probably the most interesting of all the doctors assistants really, even after he chooses the right path in enlightenment he still remains shifty.
