As Mr [[Popplewick]] was an alias of the [[Valeyard]] and the Valeyard was, according to [[the Master]], "an amalgamation of the darker side of [[the Doctor]]'s nature", taken from somewhere between his "twelfth and final incarnations", Geoffrey Hughes is technically a credited actor employed by the BBC to play the Doctor. | As Mr [[Popplewick]] was an alias of the [[Valeyard]] and the Valeyard was, according to [[the Master]], "an amalgamation of the darker side of [[the Doctor]]'s nature", taken from somewhere between his "twelfth and final incarnations", Geoffrey Hughes is technically a credited actor employed by the BBC to play the Doctor. | ||
