According to one account, the [[Doctor Who logo (The Kingmaker)|''Doctor Who'' brand]] came about by accident after [[the press]]'s awareness of the Doctor turned him into a reluctant [[celebrity]], the [[Fifth Doctor]] suggesting that the newfound exposure came following the [[Fourth Doctor]]'s [[Zygon gambit|encounter]] with the [[Skarasen|Loch Ness Monster]]. A [[Target Books (Bafflement and Devotion)|publisher]] approached the Doctor, who accepted their request to write factual books aimed at children. The resulting series was intended to be named ''The Doctor, Who Discovers'' but became ''[[Doctor Who Discovers]]'' after "some [[idiot]]" in the publisher's design department missed the "The". The Doctor completed five books in the series and began work on the sixth, ''[[Doctor Who Discovers Historical Mysteries]]'', but left it unfinished until a robot sent by the publishers from the [[64th century]] invaded the TARDIS to forcefully remind him of his contractual obligation.
