- You may be looking for a female incarnation of the Meddling Monk.
The Interfering Nun was a Time Lady who broke with the Gallifreyan tradition of inactivity. She was mentioned by Romana II in a conversation about renegade Time Lords. (PROSE: Shada [+]Gareth Roberts, adapted from Shada (Douglas Adams), BBC Books novelisations (BBC Books, 2012).)
When Zoe Heriot accused the Monk of changing history, he admitted it proudly, rhetorically asking if the Interfering Nun was responsible. (AUDIO: The Prints of Denmark [+]Paul Morris, The Second Doctor: Volume Three (The Companion Chronicles, Big Finish Productions, 2022).)
When she temporarily disguised herself as a nurse, River Song was once referred to by the Clocksmith as "the Interfering Nun". (AUDIO: The Eighth Piece [+]Matt Fitton, Doom Coalition 3 (The Eighth Doctor Adventures: Doom Coalition, Big Finish Productions, 2016).)
Behind the scenes[]
- The Interfering Nun is, of course, a joke on the part of author Gareth Roberts: a distaff equivalent of the Meddling Monk.
- Later, Doctor Who media would actually introduce a female incarnation of the Monk who indeed went by the name "the Nun".
