"Main Doctor"?![[edit source]]
Is the First Doctor really the "main" Doctor of this audio, with all the others merely 'featured'?86.143.210.103talk to me 20:10, October 25, 2013 (UTC)
- I don't know the story, but I can tell you that infoboxes can only have one "main" Doctor, and all others must go in the featured section. That's just the way infoboxes are set up. If you can argue that a different one is the "main" one, you can change it, but otherwise, if they have equal weight, it's easiest to put the First one as the "main".

- I'd say that the Eighth Doctor is (barely) the "main" one here, given that the story starts and ends with him, and he is the latest of the bunch. Charley also plays a larger role than other companions. JagoAndLitefoot ☎ 07:15, October 26, 2013 (UTC)
- I agree that it should probably be Eight, but I'd love to hear the argument of whomever switched it to Four for a while there. Sure, I'd maybe put Four in "second place" as the main Doctor, but it all seems to be mainly from Eight's point of view. As JAL points out, it starts and ends with him.
--SOTO ☎ 01:26, November 6, 2013 (UTC)- I also agree about the Main Doctor being the Eighth Doctor. However, I do know what the argument was for the Fourth Doctor. The person who did that stated that it should be the Fourth Doctor because Tom Baker was the first one listed in the cast. Yeah, not much of an argument there.
