A transcript from an early [[17th century]] staging of the play also appeared in the Notebooks. As it differed considerably from all other known versions of the text, ''The Shakespeare Notebooks'' suggested the diversion may have been unique to a single performance and "perhaps" an extreme example of improvisation by the [[actor]]s involved. The transcript featured [[Clown (As You Like It)|a clown]] (referred to in dialogue as "a [[fool]]") and a character named [[Peri Brown (As You Like It)|Peri Brown]] who travelled together through [[time]] and [[space]] in their [[home]] which they called [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]]. The two were clearly based upon the [[Sixth Doctor]] and his [[Peri Brown|companion of the same name]]. During the play, the clown encountered Jaques, a meeting which he relayed to Duke Senior, but after this they left in the TARDIS with apparently no further effect on the main action.

''As You Like It'' was one of many Shakespeare's plays which the [[bookshop]] [[Books Unltd]] stocked in the [[21st century]]. After an outraged [[Robert Greene]] used the [[Shadey]]s' powers to wreak destruction to the shop upon finding out that Shakespeare had been remembered by [[history]] instead of him, a copy of ''As You Like It'' was in pieces when the [[Ninth Doctor]] and [[Rose Tyler]] arrived to investigate.
