I think it's terribly POV to put that material under 'myths'. The episode itself is ambiguous, and any resolution to the question is a matter of fanon 68.49.32.68 04:09, December 23, 2009 (UTC)


 * The canon sources which document that all past incarnations of the Doctor have been accounted for is vast. Spreee 04:39, January 19, 2010 (UTC)Spreee

Moving paragraph here until it can be rewritten and/or supported with sources. As it is now, it's riddled with tags asking for clarification. Shambala108 ☎  14:06, July 26, 2016 (UTC)
 * An interesting controversy was born when this story's climax aired.  It showed the Fourth Doctor having a mental battle with Morbius, and faces of the Doctor's past incarnations were adjoined with a brand new set of unfamiliar faces. At face value,  it was an easter egg that allowed eight members of the Doctor Who production team to cameo in a single episode. However, others   interpreted these uncharted faces in a different way, and suspected the Doctor had incarnations dating even further back than the First Doctor. Later developments in the series refuted this speculation by stories such as The Five Doctors confirming the First Doctor was indeed the first incarnation of the Doctor to exist, and the tele-movie Doctor Who referring to the Seventh Doctor as his "seventh life", and suggested these faces belonged to Morbius' incarnations or other unknown Time Lords.
