Maybe the "Shayde Doctor" had time to sneak away for a bit, pick up someone named Ria, and pop back in time to meet the Seventh Doctor. Perhaps Shayde simply visited the party twice (as he was already at the scene) simply to play a trick on the Doctor. Or maybe there's no connection at all. Perhaps it ''is'' just a situation where two completely different "Doctors" were based on the incarnation played by Briggs in his fannon series, one as a tribute and one as a red herring. All that's certain is that neither narrative gives us anything clear to connect any of the numerous Nick Briggs-based Doctors. |

An incarnation of the Doctor met the Seventh Doctor at Bonjaxx's birthday party on Maruthea.
Biography
Accompanied by his companion Ria, this version of the Doctor greeted his seventh incarnation and Ace at Maruthea during Bonjaxx's birthday celebration. (COMIC: Party Animals)
When Hob viewed over the events of this party, he briefly saw an image of the two Doctors and Death's Head. (COMIC: The Incomplete Death's Head)
Appearance
The two Doctors and Death's Head at Bonjaxx's Bar on Maruthea. (COMIC: The Incomplete Death's Head)
This Doctor had short, dark hair and a receding hairline.
His outerwear consisted of a dark suit jacket with light-coloured piping along the lapels and he carried a toothbrush in his outer breast pocket for reasons unknown. He also wore a badge shaped like a teapot. (COMIC: Party Animals)
When Shayde posed as the Eighth Doctor and "regenerated" as part of a scheme to defeat the Threshold, the new incarnation wore similar clothes and kept a toothbrush in his breast pocket. (COMIC: Wormwood)
Behind the scenes
- This incarnation of the Doctor and his companion Ria originated in the fan Audio Visuals productions that were more-or-less contemporaneous with Party Animals[1][2], and thus has the likeness of Nicholas Briggs, who portrayed that Doctor. As unlicensed productions, the Audio Visuals and its Doctor are outside the scope of this wiki. However, Briggs would go on to briefly portray unnumbered incarnations of the Doctor in miscellaneous other audioplays, with no clear links with his previous, unofficial "Doctor" character(s).
