One of these days I'm going to compile a list of every Time Lord who ever appeared on Doctor Who, and then when some damn fool journalist refers to Peter Capaldi as "the Twelfth Time Lord" I'll be able to say "nooo, the twelfth Time Lord was one of those generic chancellery guards in The Invasion of Time" or whatever.

@thelastgherkin Doctor Who!!!!
-
@thelastgherkin I hope you'll include Donna Noble
-
@broniebrown She'd be very low down on a chronological list.
-
@thelastgherkin well you get to six by the war games
-
@vcgriffin Then by my estimate, the twelfth Time Lord is one of those dudes in The Three Doctors who sends the Second Doctor into the fray.
-
@thelastgherkin you could be right, I haven't got that far yet.
-
@vcgriffin If your number of six is the Doctor, Susan, the Monk, and the three Time Lord council at the end of the War Games, then after that it's the messenger in "Terror of the Autons", three Time Lords from "Colony in Space" one of whom reappears in "The Three Doctors", and then the Chancellor and President. If the Chancellor is one of the "War Games" tribunal given he's played by the same actor, then that means the twelfth Time Lord is actually Omega.

@vcgriffin That's only counting speaking roles, though.
-
@thelastgherkin I am so impressed right now
-
@vcgriffin One does one's best.
