Behind the scenes
- In the 1993, thirtieth anniversary special, generally considered un-canon, the Doctor was trapped by the Rani, and was jumping time tracks between the years 1973, 1993, and 2013. During this time, he jumped back and forth between his third, fifth, sixth and seventh incarnations, while Ace, his then present companion, kept being replaced by various past companions.
