[net.sf-lovers] Dr Who real name

anton (05/30/82)

Way back in the mists of time I missed the very first episode of Dr Who
(sixty what ?  I was living in Rochdale, just north of Manchester - the 
place Cyril Smith, The Giant Liberal Politician and Gracie Fields come ffrom there, not to mention the Rochdale Cowboy, Mike Harding....).  NOt may more
were missed until I finished school & went to Uni.  

Abbot & Costello MAY have done it first, but The Doctor does it with regularity !

In the final segment of the Key to Time Series (which I believe
was called the Armageddon Factor), the Doctor encounters a Cockney
Time Lord who knew him back on Gallifrey.  This man calls him by
name.  The name consists of two words, the second of which is Beta.
Unfortunately because of the strong Cockney accent, I didn't catch
the first name (sorry).  The name is not repeated, because the Doctor
gives him a dirty look and says that he prefers to be called the
Doctor now.
