However, he never identifies himself by name within ''Death Comes to Time'' itself, instead introducing himself as "the Brigadier" much as [[Renegade Time Lord]]s might call themselves simply "the Doctor" or "the Master". Given how much else ''Death Comes to Time'' rewrites about the backstory of the Doctor, it is impossible to confirm, in-universe, how similar this Brigadier was to the [[Alastair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]] of [[N-Space|the Doctor's universe]].

This page should be merged.

It should be relocated at Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart because they're the same individual. Based on updated T:VS.
Talk about it here or check the revision history for additional comments.

The Brigadier worked for UNIT and aided the Seventh Doctor.

He managed to stop Tannis' invasion with the help of the Doctor. Ace later informed him of the Doctor's death.

The Kingmaker suggested that the Doctor's death and defeat may have only happened in that universe. (WC: Death Comes to Time)
