Second Doctor

Feeling a moral obligation to help the oppressed to fight the injustices he came across in the universe, the Second Doctor was a maverick gadfly that hid his more cunning aspects behind his outwardly warm and bumbling nature as he tried to catch his adversaries out in their schemes, not showing his hand until he held the advantage. However, while he would always answer a cry for help, the Doctor held a preference to enjoying himself in his travels, simply looking to have fun as he journeyed through time and space.

After emerging from being renewed, the Doctor had some initial difficulty adjusting to the change, though he still had his previous incarnation's last companions, Ben Jackson and Polly Wright, at his side to help him. They were soon joined by mid-18th century Highland Scot Jamie McCrimmon, with whom the Doctor developed a strong friendship. After Ben and Polly left the TARDIS to return to 1966, the Doctor and Jamie were embroiled in a plot that saw the Daleks come to their supposed "final end", and ended with them being joined by Victoria Waterfield, a young girl orphaned by the Daleks. With Jamie and Victoria by his side, the Doctor came into his fist battles with enemies such as the Great Intelligence and the Ice Warriors, as well as further conflicts with the Cybermen, though also made a friend in Colonel Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart. Eventually, Victoria was unable to cope with the constant distress, and took the opportunity to settle down with a new family in 1975.

Jamie would also part ways with the Doctor to stay in 1967 Scotland, with the Doctor somehow being reunited with his grandchildren, John and Giliian, for more adventures, until he was convinced to leave them at Zebadee University to protect them from the threat of the Quarks, with the subsequent battle reuniting him with Jamie, who returned to the TARDIS.

The Doctor and Jamie then made a new friend in Zoe Heriot, a young scientist from the late 21st century who had stowed aboard the TARDIS after helping them defend the Wheel from the Cybermen. The three travellers would endure battles in the Land of Fiction and join with UNIT and the newly promoted Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart to fight a Cyberman invasion, until their travels came to an end when the Doctor had to call on the Time Lords for help with the evil machinations of the War Lords. Though the Time Lords did indeed render assistance, they also condemned him to exile on Earth and a forced regeneration for breaking their non-interference policy many times over, and returned Jamie and Zoe to their homes with their memories of their adventures erased.

However, the Doctor was granted some leniency in his sentence by agreeing to work for the Celestial Intervention Agency, carrying out covert operations for them, with Jamie being recruited to assist the Doctor for some of them. However, the Doctor could not keep his fate at bay forever, and, though he was able to escape into exile in 1960s London before an enforced regeneration, the Time Lords eventually entrapped him with animated scarecrows and the Doctor was indeed forced to regenerate into his third body.

Biography[[edit]]

A day to come[[edit]]

During the operation to get the replacement attached, the Doctor twice came close to regenerating.

Main article: First Doctor's renewal

After having the "stuffing knocked out of him" fighting the Cybermen in Antarctica in December 1986, (COMIC: Blood and Ice ^[+]Loading...["Blood and Ice (comic story)"]) and after coming to terms with the change, (TV: Twice Upon a Time ^[+]Loading...["Twice Upon a Time (TV story)"]) the Doctor regenerated on the floor of his TARDIS, his appearance changing into that of a much younger man. (TV: The Tenth Planet ^[+]Loading...["The Tenth Planet (TV story)"]) However he would lose all memory of his predecessor initially refusing to regenerate, due to his encounter with his twelfth incarnation putting his timeline out of synch. (TV: Twice Upon a Time) After the regeneration, which he referred to as a "renewal", was completed, the new Doctor found himself suspected as an impostor by Ben, this being due to the Doctor failing to inform his companions of Time Lords' ability to regenerate, while Polly was more ready to believe that he was the same Doctor.

Before he had time to recover, the TARDIS landed on Vulcan, where the Doctor witnessed the murder of an Earth examiner sent to check on the human colony. Posing as the examiner, the Doctor tried to stop the colony's scientist, Lesterson, from reactivating three captured Daleks, but failed. Sceptical about the apparent reformed Daleks serving the colony, the Doctor desperately tried to convince the humans that they were using their colony to produce new Daleks. By the time Lesterson uncovered the truth, it was too late: Thousands of Daleks, now showing their true colours, attacked the colony and killed many colonists. The Doctor and his companions remained to fight alongside the colonists, with the Doctor destroying his foes by using their power against them, and exposing security head Bragen as the murder of the examiner. (TV: The Power of the Daleks ^[+]Loading...["The Power of the Daleks (TV story)"])

Intending to reach Mars the Doctor, instead, landed the TARDIS on the Moon. After enjoying the lack of gravity, the TARDIS crew discovered a giant Moonbase in the next valley. In the Moonbase, they met the base’s commander Hobson, who showed the Doctor and Ben the Gravitron, a giant gravity device used to control the weather on Earth. He also told them the Moonbase was under quarantine because a new disease had broken out among the crew. After discovering the Cybermen were in the base, Hobson gave the Doctor and his friends 24 hours to find the cause of the disease. The Doctor eventually realised that the Moonbase's sugar supplies had been contaminated by the Cybermen, which was the source of the disease.

After a Cyberman appeared, the Doctor and Moonbase crew were taken hostage in the Gravitron room, and the Doctor discovered that the Cybermen’s aim was to use controlled humans to operate the Gravitron and disrupt the weather on Earth. However, the Cybermen were soon overthrown by the Doctor’s companions and their ‘Polly Cocktail’. The controlled humans were then removed and locked in the sick bay. However, soon more Cybermen advanced, en masse towards the Moonbase from across the Moon. To stop them, the Doctor suggested the Gravitorn be lowered so it aimed onto the Moon’s surface, and the Cybermen were deflected, harmlessly, off into deep space.

The Human Factor incident[[edit]]

After the TARDIS was stolen at the behest of the Daleks, the Doctor and Jamie were lured by Edward Waterfield who transported them back to 2 June 1866. Waterfield and his colleague Theodore Maxtible recruited the Doctor to help their experiment to isolate the Human Factor, with Waterfield's daughter Victoria being held hostage by the Daleks. Using Jamie as an unwilling subject, the Doctor successfully identified the factor and implanted it into three Daleks who he named Alpha, Beta and Omega. With the experiment a success, the group was forced to travel to the Dalek City on Skaro where the Doctor confronted the Dalek Emperor. The Emperor revealed they'd tricked the Doctor into identifying the Dalek Factor to spread on humans and the Doctor in turn tricked the Daleks into believing he'd been converted by the Dalek Factor. With the three humanised Daleks causing unrest, the Doctor suggested that all Daleks be sent through a Dalek Factor conversion arch, having switched it to pass on the Human Factor instead. This instigated a civil war on Skaro, during which Edward was killed saving the Doctor from a Black Dalek. Promising to look after his daughter, the Doctor and Jamie left with Victoria, believing the Daleks had met their "final end".

Final adventures with Jamie and Zoe[[edit]]

Arriving on the Independent Earth Colony Axista Four in the year 2539, the Doctor became involved in a refugee crisis sparked by the Earth Federation's intention to resettle eighty-thousand refugees dislocated by the Dalek Wars.

Trial[[edit]]

The Doctor and his companions landed on a planet where the War Lords planned to use human soldiers as an army to conquer the galaxy by picking them out of various periods of Earth's history with the War Chief's space-time vessel technology that had been given to them. The Doctor, Jamie and Zoe helped unite the various resistance movements on the planet to fight the War Lords. Unable to return all the kidnapped soldiers to their correct places in time and space, the Doctor called the Time Lords for help with a hypercube, thereby betraying his location to them, (TV: The War Games ^[+]Loading...["The War Games (TV story)"]) following advice given to him by the Eighth Doctor in a time bubble. (PROSE: The Eight Doctors ^[+]Loading...["The Eight Doctors (novel)"])

The Doctor, Jamie and Zoe tried to slip away before the Time Lords arrived, but the Time Lords started interfering with the TARDIS operation and demanded the Doctor hand himself over.

(TV: The Time Warrior ^[+]Loading...["The Time Warrior (TV story)"]) As he was forced back to his home planet, the Doctor reflected on his travels. (POEM: Goodbyes ^[+]Loading...["Goodbyes (poem)"])

After the Time Lords dematerialised the War Lord for his crimes, they placed the Doctor on trial for violating the non-interference policy of the Time Lords. When asked to justify his actions, the Doctor claimed that there was evil in the universe that had to be fought and used a thought channel to show that his interfering with time actually helped prevent evils such as the Daleks, Quarks, Yeti, Cybermen and Ice Warriors from gaining significant power in the universe. Needing some time to ponder the Doctor's sentencing, the Time Lords sent the Doctor away to await their decision.

While awaiting the result of his trial, the Doctor learned that the Time Lords intended to send Jamie and Zoe back to their own established places in history with the memories of the time they spent travelling with him removed, save for their first adventure. A Time Lord takes pity on them and allows them to briefly reunite and attempt an escape. However the Time Lords prevented them from escaping and they are forced to say their goodbyes. As Jamie and Zoe were sent away, the Doctor was informed that his presence was required in the trial chamber, as his fate had been decided. (TV: The War Games ^[+]Loading...["The War Games (TV story)"])

Sentenced to death[[edit]]

According to one account, following his trial the Doctor was ultimately sentenced to death. Having been sent to a luxurious anteroom to await his fate, the Doctor, the Doctor was approached with an alternative option by Sardon of the Celestial Intervention Agency, who promised him a commuted sentence to a period of exile, with the eventual possibility of a restoration to full Time Lord status. However in return the Doctor would be required to perform one or more missions on behalf of the CIA. (PROSE: World Game ^[+]Loading...["World Game (novel)"]) The Doctor agrees to the deal, under the condition that the Time Lords first send him on a proving trip to one of the time zones affected by the War Lords. In agreement, the Doctor is given a Time Ring and is sent to 1915 France where he is briefly reunited with Jeremy Carstairs and Jennifer Buckingham. The Doctor uncovers interference in Earth's timeline caused by The Players and upon his return to Gallifrey, offers to investigate it further on the Time Lords' behalf, to which the Time Lords disagree. (PROSE: The Players ^[+]Loading...["The Players (audio story)"])

First mission for the CIA[[edit]]

Sardon assigns Lady Serena as the Doctor's companion and supervisor for his mission to investigate The Players alterations to Earth's history. The Doctor is given a Type 97 TARDIS with a fully functioning Chameleon circuit for the mission instead of his own TARDIS. The Doctor and Serena travel to 1794 France to begin their investigation. The Doctor and Serena grow considerably close over the course of the mission, making it all the more tragic when Serena is killed by a shot through both of her hearts while saving the Duke of Wellington. The mission ends when The Players abandon their plot, feeling as though they have drawn too much attention to themselves.

The Doctor travels forward to 1815 and checks to ensure that the timeline is back on track. Feeling that he has earned a holiday, he spends some time in Brighton with the Duke of Wellington. Returning to the CIA, with his hair now streaked with grey from the stress of his mission, the Doctor uses Serena's death as leverage to convince Sardon to return his TARDIS to him with a Stattenheim remote control and to also let Jamie travel with him again. Sardon conceded, and altered Jamie's memory to make him believe Victoria was away studying graphology while they were sent to persuade Joinson Dastari to stop his experiments with time at Space Station Camera by Sardon, (PROSE: World Game ^[+]Loading...["World Game (novel)"]) though another account depicted this mission as happening shortly after the London Event. (PROSE: The Legacy of Gallifrey ^[+]Loading...["The Legacy of Gallifrey (short story)"])

Reunited with Jamie[[edit]]

With Jamie put under a "magic spell", (PROSE: The Two Doctors ^[+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (novelisation)"]) the CIA sent him and the Doctor to persuade Joinson Dastari to stop Professors Kartz and Reimer's experiments with time travel at the Space Station Camera, (PROSE: A Brief History of Time Lords ^[+]Loading...["A Brief History of Time Lords (novel)"]) but Dastari and his augmented Androgum, Chessene, had planned to kidnap the Time Lord emissary all along, partnering up with the Sontarans to steal the secret of time travel from the Time Lords' genetic makeup. The Sontarans slaughtered the station and the Doctor's death was faked to hide his kidnapping and seclusion in a hacienda near Seville.

Jamie escaped the massacre and reported everything to the Sixth Doctor and Peri Brown when they discovered him. The Second Doctor was transformed into an Androgum by Dastari and joined Shockeye for food at the Las Cadenas restaurant in Seville, but, because the operation was incomplete, the effect was only temporary. When Dastari and Chessene brought the Second Doctor, and his sixth incarnation, back to the hacienda, the Sixth Doctor sabotaged the attempted TARDIS copy, while Chessene regressed back to her Androgum nature. Dastari then freed the Second Doctor upon realising his mistake in augmenting a primitive Androgum, and was shot by Chessene for betraying her, and was then killed when she attempted to flee in the TARDIS copy. The Second Doctor used his Stattenheim remote control to return his TARDIS to him, and he and Jamie left the hacienda in the TARDIS.

Seeking to relax, the Doctor and Jamie travelled to Helicon Prime, and stumbled across a set of murders, which the Doctor began to investigate. Investigating the likes of singer Mindy Voir and the ambassador Dromeo, Jamie was sent to the ambassador's room and reported back that he and Voir had assisted Dromeo with killing two of his accomplices, due to them being the last ones to know the "secret of the Fennus treasure". The Doctor recalled the story of the Fennus colony as a rich and prosperous one that was forced to abandon their place when their planet was dying.

After the Doctor gained one of Voir's pendants by asking for an autograph, Helicon Prime was sabotaged into becoming dangerously out of its orbit. In the chaos, the Doctor and Jamie saw Dromeo rummage through some rooms looking for the treasure. Confronting him, Dromeo confessed he was a member of the rescue mission for Fennus that was unable to save the colonists, but found out that they saved all their knowledge and power into a lost database. He asked the Doctor to collaborate with him, but the Doctor left Jamie the task of deciding whether to help the ambassador. Jamie refused. In the following confusion, the Doctor managed to set the station back to its orbit, and he and Jamie escaped in the TARDIS. (AUDIO: Helicon Prime ^[+]Loading...["Helicon Prime (audio story)"])

When the Fourth Doctor used his TARDIS tuner to begin a temporal meta-collision with his other incarnations, the Second Doctor learnt that Earth was under threat from a pandimensional entity that had trapped his fourth incarnation in his TARDIS.

Eventually the Time Lords realised that the Doctor would be of most use to them as a man acting with the full force of hope and vigour of a man fighting for his freedom and believing that success would would bring him the repeal of his sentence. Therefore they began erasing his memory after every mission for them, sending him back to the anteroom where he waited out his stay of execution until the Time Lords approached him with another offer to have his death sentence commuted to exile in exchange for him partaking in a mission for them, unbeknownst to him that they had no intention of keeping their end of the bargain. As his missions carried on, the TARDIS console grew battered. One such mission brought the Doctor to the planet Karn where he stopped The War Lord from stealing the secret of regeneration. After which, his memory was erased once again and the Time Lords prepared him for his next mission. (PROSE: Save Yourself ^[+]Loading...["Save Yourself (short story)"])

Sentenced to exile[[edit]]

According to another account, the Doctor's trial ended with a different outcome. (TV: The War Games ^[+]Loading...["The War Games (TV story)"]) This account of events was supposedly substantially re-edited for public consumption and did not reflect events as they truly transpired. (PROSE: World Game ^[+]Loading...["World Game (novel)"]) Although the Time Lords were also known to alter the Doctor's memories and re-stage events while toying with the notion of commuting his death sentence to an exile.

(PROSE: Second Session ^[+]Loading...["Second Session (short story)"]) After being informed that Jamie and Zoe have been successfully returned to their natural time zones and shown their safe arrivals, the Doctor's sentence was handed down. He was to be exiled to Earth in the 20th century with a forced regeneration. He was given a choice of new appearance, but rejected all of the choices. At their wits' end, the Time Lords chose his new face for him and sent the protesting Doctor away to begin his exile. (TV: The War Games ^[+]Loading...["The War Games (TV story)"])

Snatched from his timeline[[edit]]

The CIA removed the Doctor from his timestream, one quantum second before his regeneration, so that he could be an agent for them in exchange for his freedom. He was then transported to an unknown snowy planet, where he rescued a woman named Raven. The planet turned out to be Skaro where the Daleks were returning to the timestream after the Doctor's last fight with them, and the CIA asked him to find the previous Time Lord agent that was set there, Celestine. Raven then sent him on his next mission. (AUDIO: The Final Beginning ^[+]Loading...["The Final Beginning (audio story)"])

Raven sent the Doctor outside Jupiter's orbit, where he encountered a strange signal and a flotilla. He traced it to Earth and landed near Glasgow. He encountered Sheena Flynn before re-encountering the Brigadier. Together, they discovered that an Ice Warrior ship had landed nearby and traced the pilot Skaar to one of Sheena's bothies. The Doctor learnt that Zelanda was planning to invade Mars to take control of the Martian empire. He was taken to Mars with Sheena and realised that it was a long time since Zelanda was exiled, so the world was dead. He was rescued by Skaar and the Brigadier and went back to the TARDIS. Having witnessed the Doctor working alongside the Brigadier, Raven decided to reunite the Doctor with an old friend and sent a new set of coordinates to the TARDIS.

Death[[edit]]

Main article: Second Doctor's change of appearance

While appearing on the game show Explain My Mystery, the Doctor was asked to consider the case of Mr Glenlock-Hogan, a farmer with walking scarecrows. He wasn't able to do so and arranged for an off-camera visit to the farm. Knowing it was a case so preposterous-sounding that it would not be taken seriously by anyone else but him, the Doctor wanted to investigate the matter privately. When he arrived, the scarecrows duly began to walk around. Eventually, they captured and shot him, revealing that they had been animated by the Time Lords in order to carry out the remaining part of his sentence.

The scarecrows dragged him to his waiting TARDIS, where they forced him to regenerate. During the process, the scarecrows programmed the TARDIS for a final flight, (COMIC: The Night Walkers ^[+]Loading...["The Night Walkers (comic story)"]) and edited the Doctor's memory to remove his knowledge of how to work his TARDIS, (TV: Spearhead from Space ^[+]Loading...["Spearhead from Space (TV story)"], The Claws of Axos ^[+]Loading...["The Claws of Axos (TV story)"]) restrict what he knew about other alien species (PROSE: The Ambassadors of Death ^[+]Loading...["The Ambassadors of Death (novelisation)"]) and events beyond the 1970s, (PROSE: The Devil Goblins from Neptune ^[+]Loading...["The Devil Goblins from Neptune (novel)"]) and make him think he had been executed at his trial.

In a bid to detach the Funhouse from the TARDIS in the time vortex, the Sixth Doctor binded the switch that protected the TARDIS' passengers from the changing time fields outside with a string, allowing him to pull it remotely from the limited protection of the Zero Room. As a result, the Doctor immediately began to regress back through his first five incarnations as he made his way back to the console room where, as the First Doctor, he flipped the switch back, restoring himself while trapping the Funhouse in the vortex.

Behind the scenes[[edit]]

Casting[[edit]]

• Rupert Davies, Valentine Dyall, Michael Hordern and Brian Blessed were all approached for the role of the Second Doctor. All declined, as they didn't want to commit to a long-running series.
• Peter Cushing was also offered the role, but declined and later regretted his decision.^{[source needed]}

Costume influences[[edit]]

• Patrick Troughton initially wanted to have a Harpo Marx-like wig, but Anneke Wills convinced him to comb his hair in a Beatles-like style.^[1]

Missing episodes[[edit]]

• Almost half of the episodes from the Second Doctor's era have been lost, leaving only seven of Patrick Troughton's twenty-one television stories still fully intact, excluding his appearances in multi-Doctor specials. Five further incomplete stories have been released commercially, with specially-created material to bridge the missing episodes. Surviving "orphan" episodes and footage have been released on the Lost in Time DVD collection.

Regeneration[[edit]]

• The Second Doctor was the first incarnation to emerge from his regeneration with a different set of clothes, as opposed to future incarnations, all of whom would have to find a new pair of clothes after changing out of the clothes worn by their previous incarnation until the Fourteenth Doctor emerged from his regeneration with a completely different set of clothes rather than his predecessor's in The Power of the Doctor.
• The Second Doctor is the only incarnation who was forced to regenerate completely, though the actual regeneration isn't seen in The War Games, and was confirmed he didn't regenerate until The Night Walkers, the only story to actually show the Second Doctor's regeneration properly, albeit without showing his succeeding incarnation.
  • Uniquely, the Second Doctor is the only incarnation who didn't regenerate at the end of his last regular appearance, instead his regeneration was shown in the comic story The Night Walkers, also making the Second Doctor the only incarnation to regenerate outside of the television series.

Legacy[[edit]]

• Matt Smith, in preparation for his role as the Eleventh Doctor, watched the Troughton serial The Tomb of the Cybermen, and fell in love with it. He described Troughton as "rather wonderful" and as being his favourite Doctor. Smith's costume and mannerisms are reminiscent of Troughton's.

Other matters[[edit]]

• The Second Doctor was the first incarnation to have his face integrated into the Doctor Who title sequence, beginning with The Macra Terror.
• Until Time Crash, the Second Doctor was the only incarnation to appear in all televised multi-Doctor stories.
