The Doctor (Time Is Everything)

The Doctor
Species:	Time Lord
Place of origin:	Gallifrey
Appearance:	Superannuation advertisement
Main actor:	Tom Baker

An incarnation of the Doctor continued to live adventures inside his TARDIS and was very concerned with "planning for the future".

He knew of the Crackenoids' extinction, images from which could be summoned on his TARDIS scanner. In addition to a sonic screwdriver, the Doctor also possessed a device called the Berillian time transformer, which made it easier to shape or predict the future, though it had a tendency to malfunction.

While in his console room, this Doctor had a tendency to meditate about his ability to plan for the future, being fond of the observation that in some way, any 21st century human who knew the telephone number of the savings plan-granting Superannuation Services could do the same. When he said something along those lines, the phone number in question usually appeared on the TARDIS scanner screen.

One of these instances was shortly after the Doctor escaped some heated conflict by stepping into the TARDIS, continuing to buzz his sonic screwdriver at the threat through the closed inner door for a few seconds before he headed to the console and set the controls. Once he was through with his explanation of the savings plan, he then landed in the peaceful countryside of New Zealand, to his delight. (NOTVALID: Superannuation advertisements)

Appearance

This incarnation resembled an aged version of his fourth incarnation, with a white hair, (NOTVALID: Superannuation advertisement) much like the Doctor's distant future self the Curator documented in other accounts, (TV: The Day of the Doctor, PROSE: The Day of the Doctor, COMIC: The Then and the Now) the elderly Doctor who told the story of his earlier self's adventures on Shada (NOTVALID: Shada) and the jolly, forgetful 700-year-old Doctor who once introduced "a night of pure entertainment". (NOTVALID: Introduction to the Night)

This incarnation of the Doctor's attire consisted of a red scarf and heavy coat thrown over a Victorian shirt with black cravat and vertical stripes waistocat; he often, though not always, wore a black wide-brimmed hat to complete this, (NOTVALID: Superannuation advertisement) much as he had done when wearing a younger, similar face. (TV: Robot, Logopolis, etc.)

Behind the scenes

• This Doctor bears a close resemblance to Introduction to the Night's Doctor, theShada VHS release's Doctor and The Day of the Doctor's the Curator, all being aged, unnumbered incarnations of the Doctor played by an older Tom Baker. Whether they are intended to be the same version is unknown, and, at any rate, only the Curator appears in material considered valid by this Wiki.
