Gandalf was a name used to refer to the Doctor. When the Saxon Master sent a message to Martha Jones via a television broadcast, he showed her the aged Tenth Doctor and sarcastically said, "Say hello, Gandalf." (TV: Last of the Time Lords)
The Eleventh Doctor compared himself to the character, saying he was "the outer space Gandalf", but incorrectly follows this by describing him as "the little green one in Star Wars. (TV: Meanwhile in the TARDIS)
Behind the scenes
