The Doctor spends most of that time in a coma, having just regenerated into his tenth incarnation. (TV: The Christmas Invasion)
 * Discovering Jackie's Glubby Glubs, Rose recalls her late father's get rich schemes. (TV: Father's Day, Rise of the Cybermen)

(TV: Tooth and Claw, Time Crash et al.) His twelfth incarnation would also find his sight altered after an adventure, although much more drastically. (TV: Oxygen- The Pyramid at the End of the World)

 * Jackie recalls her uncle Tony, evidently the namesake of the son she will conceive with the parallel Pete Tyler. (TV: Journey's End)
 * Jackie suspects that Trisha Delaney has talked to Tycho Fairbank about her behind her back. (TV: Boom Town)
 * Jackie's friend Arianna is among those who are shown discrediting her by Tycho. (TV: Rose)
 * Referring to Jackie as his Trojan Horse, the Doctor notes that he met the original. (TV: The Myth Makers)
 * The Doctor begins to quote his first incarnation by saying, 'this old body is wearing a bit [thin]' but cuts himself off. (TV: The Tenth Planet)
