Grant Markham - Other Appearances

Other Appearances

The following are from unofficial anthologies that are not generally considered canon.

Grant also appeared in two stories alongside the Sixth Doctor in the charity anthology Perfect Timing (1998). In the first, Wish Upon A Star Beast by Steve Lyons, the Doctor and Grant encounter a group of killer Meeps in the Santaland amusement centre in Norway during the 22nd century.

The second story, Schrödinger’s Botanist by Ian McIntire, covers a longer span of time, during which Grant and the Doctor have many adventures and are also accompanied by a Legion (a member of a multidimensional alien race that appears in the Virgin novels Lucifer Rising and The Crystal Bucephalus). During the course of the story, Grant links his mind to a computer infected by a virus and is seriously injured. Unwilling to risk his life any further, the Sixth Doctor leaves him at the Bi-Al Foundation. The Doctor later regrets abandoning Grant and returns to apologise, but Grant is unable to forgive him and they part on bitter terms.

Famous quotes containing the word appearances:

    What I often forget about students, especially undergraduates, is that surface appearances are misleading. Most of them are at base as conventional as Presbyterian deacons.
    Muriel Beadle (b. 1915)

    Truth has scarce done so much good in the world as the false appearances of it have done hurt.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
