'''Sir Patrick Moore''' was a famous [[Earth]] astronomer.


He was mentioned (jokingly) by [[Rose Tyler]] when the [[Ninth Doctor]] asked her who she considered to be the ultimate expert in [[alien]] lifeforms. ([[TV]]: ''[[Aliens of London]]'')
He also appeared in a real-life segment for [[Children in Need]] 1985, in which he "always wanted to open the door of the [[The Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]]", and does so when it appears, revealing a parade of then-past and present ''Doctor Who'' cast members sporting a comically oversized cheque.
 
[[The Doctor]] apparently met him at some point in the past, referring to him as "a devil" with the ladies. He was one of many experts holding a conference over the [[Internet]] when the [[Atraxi]] were threatening to boil the [[Earth]]. The [[Eleventh Doctor]], after providing proof that he was a genius, showed the assembled experts how to create a [[computer virus]] that would alert the Atraxi to the position of [[Prisoner Zero]].
