::* While many of these appearances are taken from actual footage of the original actors in character, many of them are lifted from different contexts than they appear here. As mentioned below, for example, there was no previous footage of the [[First Doctor]] stealing the TARDIS that would become his (or, if you prefer, the TARDIS stealing the [[First Doctor]])! Similarly, the [[Second Doctor]] was never before seen running across a palm-tree lined beach in a fur coat, although he was seen '''running''' in a fur coat, in [[TV]]: ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]''. | ::* While many of these appearances are taken from actual footage of the original actors in character, many of them are lifted from different contexts than they appear here.
