Evidently, "Paul McGann" here was, in both cases, intended to be an in-universe version of [[Paul McGann|the real Paul McGann]], who portrayed the [[Eighth Doctor]]. Although he was not given a clear in-universe illustration during the narrative of [[WC]]: ''[[Peter Capaldi and Simon the Shy Cyberman Invite You to Breakfast with 7 Doctors (webcast)|Peter Capaldi and Simon the Shy Cyberman Invite You to Breakfast with 7 Doctors]]'', or indeed [[PROSE]]: ''[[Hospitality (short story)|Hospitality]]'', the end of the [[webcast]] included a screen featuring [[Photograph|photographs]] of each Doctor who would be present at the event, in-costume as "[[the Doctor]]". If taken as an in-universe representation of McCoy, this qualifies as the only in-universe illustration of the character [[Sylvester McCoy (Doctor Who?)|outside of parodies]].
