Cropped from full frames so as to utilise as little non-free content as possible

Yes, inferior to original DVD picture and audio quality, and scaled down from original screen dimensions

• The image is used for visual illustration and identification of the character who is the subject of the article;
• It presents an important moment in the depiction of the character (i.e. the hi-jacking of his mind by an alien force);
• It is difficult to describe, with good accuracy, the change in the character's appearance in words alone, without support from an image;
• No commercial damage will be done to the abilities of the copyright holders to distribute the original work due to use of these two still frames, which are reduced, in scale, resolution and portion used, from DVD quality.

No free alternative exists which is not misrepresentative, and all images of a non-living puppet character will require fair-use justification if to be used on Wikipedia.
