From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Actually, I did think of one more thing to bring up in regards to TV appearances. What about characters who only appear on video? I think this might depend on if it is newly recorded footage or not. For example, I would not say the Daleks appear in The War Games when the Doctor shows footage of them to the Time Lords, as it's comprised of clips from previous serials. But what about footage that was newly recorded for the purpose of the episode, but is seen as a past recording in-universe?
