Yes, it would be good to check the character.

As for the (invalid) character from the films in real world, those are still disambiguated by the first appearance, as it is now at Dr. Who (Dr. Who and the Daleks). Sure, this is not going to be obvious for a first-time user, but those are the rules. These rules would have the name of the story as the dab term for characters from DW stories and something else as the dab term for characters from stories mentioned in DW stories.
