Season 6b, in pretty much all the detail that Cornell and company had envisaged, was no longer just a theory, but the narrative explanation embraced by [[Terrance Dicks]] — the man who had created most of the discontinuity in the first place given that he: co-wrote ''The War Games'', was script editor at the time ''The Three Doctors'' was produced, and wrote ''The Five Doctors''.

However, a different explanation for the inconsistencies in ''The Two Doctors'' was given by [[Simon Guerrier]] in the 2015 [[Big Finish Productions]] ''[[The Early Adventures|Early Adventures]]'' story ''[[The Black Hole (audio story)|The Black Hole]],'' that [[The Monk (The Black Hole)|the Monk]] manipulated the Doctor while claiming to be a Constable of the Time Lords, seemingly shortly after ''[[The Ice Warriors (TV story)|The Ice Warriors]].'' In 2022 however Big Finish revisited 6B, providing their own take on events immediately following ''The War Games'' in ''[[Beyond War Games (audio anthology)|Beyond War Games]]'', which similarly to ''World Game'' depicts the Second Doctor being recruited and sent on missions by the CIA.
