Davison was brought together, along with many other actors who portrayed "Doctor Who", for a special breakfast in "London's glittering West End". The Twelfth Doctor considered making an appearance, to "see what these fictions [were] like." (WC: Peter Capaldi and Simon the Shy Cyberman Invite You to Breakfast with 7 Doctors)

Other matters

Evidently, "Peter Davison" was, in all instances, intended to be an in-universe version of the real Peter Davison, who portrayed the Fifth Doctor. Although he was not given a clear in-universe illustration during the narrative of WC: Peter Capaldi and Simon the Shy Cyberman Invite You to Breakfast with 7 Doctors or COMIC: The Girl Who Loved Doctor Who, the end of the webcast included a screen featuring photographs of each Doctor who would be present at the event, in-costume as "the Doctor".

All Creatures Great and Small and Button Moon exist in the DWU. In the real world, Peter Davison played one of the main characters in the former, and performed, alongside his former-wife Sandra Dickinson, the theme song for the latter.
