Talk:Sixth Doctor

Copy editing for tenses
I've gone through the article very quickly, it was driving me mad! In-universe descriptions should be past tense, while IRL commentary (ie the questions section) should be present. Yes, i've got too much time on my hands :D --90.206.122.188 19:23, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

Sylvester McCoy?
When it says that he portrays the Sixth Doctor, what does it mean? None of the other Doctors have their successors noted as having played them. I'm going to remove it. The Thirteenth Doctor 14:01, May 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * It would be a case of the fine line. In the opening sequence of Time and the Rani it is Sylvester McCoy in a wig as the 6th Doctor (it's when he's on the floor with his face to the ground and all the camera shake), then when the Tetrap rolls him over his face is all swirly during the regeneration (which resolves itself to by the Seventh Doctor - McCoy). --Tangerineduel 15:33, May 24, 2010 (UTC)

eye color?
Removed a statement that the Sixth Doctor's eyes are light brown. There's some evidence that the Sixth Doctor has blue eyes. He's drawn that way in the animated "Real Time" and I believe some of the action figures also have blue eyes. There's an additional scene in the audio release of "Real Time" in which Evelyn tells him that his new blue coat matches his eyes.

I haven't the faintest idea what color Colin Baker's eyes actually are - they look anywhere from brown to bluish-green in photos - but it seems unlikely to me he would have sat through that recording session without protesting that they had got his eye color wrong!

(Interestingly I've seen unsubstantiated claims that the first eight Doctors all had blue eyes, which I find difficult to believe, although I think quite a few of them did.)

Perhaps someone who has actually met Colin Baker can verify his eye color? Zathras86 02:46, November 26, 2010 (UTC)Zathras86
