Talk:Season 6B
"How, in TV: The Five Doctors, does the Second Doctor know that the Time Lords had erased the memories of Jamie McCrimmon and Zoe Heriot?"
Answer: He knows because the Time Lords told him in "The War Games." When the Doctor said, "they'll forget me, won't they?", one of the Time Lords replied that they'd remember their first adventure with the Doctor, but nothing more.
So the Doctor was well aware of what had been done to Jamie and Zoe's memories.
I don't understand why that point is continually raised in season 6B discussions, given that it's established in dialogue that the Doctor knows how much Jamie and Zoe will remember.
On the other hand, the Doctor shouldn't have said, "how do you know who we are?" to the Jamie and Zoe phantoms in "The Five Doctors." He should have asked how they know who the Brigadier is.
- Yes, but in theory, the Second Doctor regenerated shortly after that. That's why the existence of series 6B is so hotly debated - accepting only the TV series a canonical there is only a span of, at most, a couple hours between when Jamie and Zoe had their minds erased, and the Doctor was forced to regenerate - and he was in the custody of the Time Lords the entire time.

Name of the Doctor
Should The Name of the Doctor -- specifically the incident in which the Second Doctor was in the presence of one of the Claras -- be included, given that the Doctor is dressed identically to how he was dressed in The Five Doctors and is similarly aged? 68.146.70.124talk to me 23:56, January 12, 2014 (UTC)
The Three Doctors: 6B or not 6B
So for as long as I've known about Season 6B, I've always placed The Three Doctors firmly inside. However, it seems on the Second Doctor page itself that the events that happened in this episode are not listed in the time he spent post-War Games and pre-exhile. Therefore one of these pages needs correcting. :)
As a pinickity fan who likes to get canon correct, I just wanted to raise this to your attentions.
