 Caellach Tiger Eye 2009-03-18 . chapter 1Really good. I love the Second Doctor and Jamie, they're one of my favourite Doctor-and-companion teams, along with Four and Sarah Jane, Seven with Ace and Ten with Donna. I also appreciate how you focused on the Second Doctor's frequent encounters with future selves - it was enlightening to see what the Doctor was thinking in those instances, how he reacts to these situations, etc. Patrick Troughton was lucky, getting so many opportunities like that.
Only thing is, you've ignoring how the Second Doctor was working for the Time Lords in 'The Two Doctors'. Have you heard of the 'hypothetical' Season 6b. It's a theory that, judging by his knowledge of Jamie and Zoe's wiped memories in 'The Five Doctors', and because he and Jamie were on a mission for the Time Lords in 'The Two Doctors', that the Second Doctor was, rather than immediately exiled, sent on several missions by the CIA (Celestial Intervention Agency) for an unknown period of time before his forced regeneration. In addition, Jamie's knowledge likely means that his memories (and Zoe's too, possibly) were restored by the CIA, at least temporarity. Plus, if you ignore Season 6b, then 'The Two Doctors' would probably have been set, for the 2nd Doctor, BEFORE 'The Five Doctors' (as he mentioned Victoria in the former, and Zoe in the latter). Remember, time isn't a straight line.
However, I'm still impressed by your style and you depth, especially with his observations as to the different Doctors' reactions to him. Well done.
