* [[Narvin]], a member of the [[Celestial Intervention Agency]], is frequently depicted in cover art in robes of this design. Although consistent with these robes simply being a widespread type of formal Gallifreyan wear, this may be interpreted as a reference to the retroactive suggestion in various sources and fan speculation that the Time Lords seen in {{cs|The War Games (TV story)}} were in fact C.I.A. agents, rather than the [[High Council]] as typically asserted.
