In the interest of re-opening this discussion, didn't Robert Holmes write it with the belief that 2 and Jamie were on a CIA mission, due to that scene in The Five Doctors with the Doctor mentioning Zoe and Jamie's departure in The War Games? With that in mind, it seems that The Two Doctors is indeed Season 6B placed, with The Black Hole merely being an "template" (for lack of a better term) for the serial, as is mentioned in behind the scenes interviews with the crew.
