The Doctor's fourth persona was the one who most frequently kept a yo-yo on his person. Although he once used it to test local gravity, (TV: The Ark in Space),he apparently used it primarily for fun. His skill with the yo-yo appeared to increase over time. (TV: The Android Invasion, The Brain of Morbius)
