In a parallel universe in which the Doctor's life was a work of fiction, Matt Smith was an actor who portrayed the Doctor in the television series Doctor Who.

He starred in the show's seventh series, alongside Karen Gillan, Arthur Darvill, and Jenna Coleman.

When the Eleventh Doctor accidentally slipped into this reality in 2013, the two met at Doctor Who Con 2013, where Smith mistook him for an impressive cosplayer. (COMIC: The Girl Who Loved Doctor Who). At the next day, during the filming of an episode of the show, the Doctor and Ally arrived and took Smith's script from him, trying to know how to get out of that universe. When a Cyberman appeared, this one got confused for the presence of the "two Doctors" thanks to Matt wearing the costume. After the real Doctor used his TARDIS to get back the Cybermen to his world, Matt was perplexed about the fact that his "character" was actually real. Before leaving, the Doctor told Matt that, if one day he wanted to leave the show, he recommended him to propose Peter Capaldi as his replacement. Matt saw with his own eyes how the real Doctor and his tardis disappeared, and asked Ally if she still was a fan of him, even after having met the real Doctor, to which she nodded. Ally told him that the Doctor "changed things", to what Matt, knowing the psychology of his character, affirmed that "That's what he does".
