Has it ever been specifically stated that Ulysses / Daniel Joyce / the Doctor's father was the father of Braxiatel and the Doctor's sisters? Simply being the Doctor's brother / sisters does not necessarily mean that they are this character's children.

: …Doesn't it? I'm unsure about the sisters, but Irving is solidly the Doctor' ''brother'', not their ''half''-brother; and Irving grew up on Gallifrey, attended the Academy and whatnot, so no [[the Other|Other]]/[[Timeless Child]] hedges there. It's thus a matter of logic that we recognise that the Doctor's father is also Irving's brother. By the same token, for all that there is surely no story stating so ''directly'', we would not be unjustified in saying Ulysses was logically [[John Who|John]]'s great-grandfather or [[Ian Campbell]]'s great-great-grandfather, although of course there isn't an infobox field for that so it doesn't come up. | |||
: But I may be missing something. Could you elaborate? [[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 19:52, 5 February 2021 (UTC) |
