| | Mr Brown, [[Prime Minister of the United Kingdom|Prime Minister]], is a recurring character in ''[[Hedz (series)|Hedz]]''. |
| Gordon Brown served as [[Chancellor of the Exchequer]], and was widely considered to succeed [[Tony Blair]] as Prime Minister. In an interview with [[Nick Robinson]], Blair rejected this idea, calling Brown a "numb-nuts who would start a fight in an empty room with the [[air conditioning]] unit" and an "evil, brooding, sulkmeister from Sulkville, [[Ohio]]."

| | |
| Blair would go on, declaring that the clocks had gone back to [[1997]] and that he was now popular again. Blair then collapsed, and [[regeneration|regenerated]] into the [[Tenth Doctor/Non-valid sources|Tenth Doctor]]. In an address to the people of [[Great Britain|Britain]], the "new and improved Prime Minister" said they could forget about him leaving office, because he "didn't save the planet from the [[Dalek]]s just so Gordon could take over". The Doctor subsequently raised his [[fist]] declaring he'll govern for [[100 (number)|one hundred]] more years. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Tony Blair Regenerates (TV story)}})

| |
| Gordon Brown was first mentioned as being Chancellor in the [[T:VALID|non-valid]] [[2007 (releases)|2007]] ''[[Dead Ringers]]'' skit {{cs|Tony Blair Regenerates (TV story)}}, parodying the real world Blair-Brown handover. At the time of the skit's broadcast, Brown was considered the likely successor to Blair, and would go on to win the {{w|2007 Labour Party leadership election (UK)|Labour Party leadership election}} unopposed and become Prime Minister later that year. His first appearance in a valid source would come in the [[2008 (releases)|2008]] [[Marvel UK]] comic story {{cs|The Guns of Avalon (comic story)}}, written by [[Paul Cornell]]. The comic story features an appearance from [[Merlin the Wise]], and therefore is a licensed [[DWU]] source.

| Following [[David Tennant]]'s announcement that he was leaving the role of the Doctor, the [[DWA 84|eighty-fourth issue]] of ''[[Doctor Who Adventures]]'' jokingly touted Gordon Brown as a potential replacement, alongside [[Catherine Tate]], [[Basil Brush]], [[Zac Efron]], [[David Beckham]], and [[Blon Fel-Fotch Passameer-Day Slitheen|Margaret Slitheen]].

Notably, both Brown and Green have colours for surnames as well as reversed initials.
