Talk:Third Doctor

Excised material
When I encountered in, article had the following in its behind the scenes section:
 * It is interesting to note that, during his exile on Earth, Torchwood made no known attempts to capture the Doctor, despite him being named in the Torchwood Charter.
 * This could be explained by the fact that Captain Jack Harkness most likely would have stopped them from interfering with his personal timeline. Also, because of the constant changing nature of time, and it being in flux, Torchwood may not have existed. A final possibility is they simply didn't recognize him as the TARDIS was hidden within UNIT HQ and he didn't resemble the incarnation of the Doctor that Queen Victoria had met, and none of Torchwood One displayed any knowledge of regeneration.

I yanked it and placed it here for several reasons. First, behind the scenes sections shouldn't have this statement-rebuttal format. This quickly leads to forum-like posting of opinion in the main article space. If you want this sort of thing, go to The Howling. Secondly, this isn't information strongly related to the third Doctor. It's better placed on the Torchwood and UNIT pages. The truth is, you could say it about any incarnation of the Doctor who had an encounter with UNIT. Why didn't UNIT report his whereabouts to Torchwood during Battlefield or Terror of the Zygons or Invasion or World War Three or The Christmas Invasion? Sure, the third Doctor is most associated with UNIT, but he's not the only one. What the original editor was getting at is why didn't UNIT communicate better with Torchwood, so that's where this comment belongs.  Czech Out  ☎ | ✍  20:05, January 7, 2011 (UTC)
