Season 6B
Due to the fact that, in The Two Doctors, the Second Doctor and Jamie are on an assignment for the Time Lords (whom they do not encounter until The War Games) and, less significantly, that they are so obviously aged from their earlier appearances, some fans speculate about a possible "Season 6B". As we do not directly see Patrick Troughton regenerate into Jon Pertwee's Third Doctor, fans hypothesise that, just prior to his third incarnation, the Time Lords recruited the Second Doctor as a covert operative. This theory also helps explain how, in "The Five Doctors", he was aware that the Time Lords had erased his companions' memories of him. In at least some of these untold adventures, Jamie would also have accompanied the Doctor. (Although she does not appear, Victoria's presence is also mentioned in The Two Doctors.) While the television continuity has yet to confirm these theories, the spin-off media have incorporated it into their working backstory.

Famous quotes containing the word season:
“The season developed and matured. Another year’s installment of flowers, leaves, nightingales, thrushes, finches, and such ephemeral creatures, took up their positions where only a year ago others had stood in their place when these were nothing more than germs and inorganic particles. Rays from the sunrise drew forth the buds and stretched them into long stalks, lifted up sap in noiseless streams, opened petals, and sucked out scents in invisible jets and breathings.”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
