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:
“When we reached the lake, about half past eight in the evening, it was still steadily raining, and harder than before; and, in that fresh, cool atmosphere, the hylodes were peeping and the toads ringing about the lake universally, as in the spring with us. It was as if the season had revolved backward two or three months, or I had arrived at the abode of perpetual spring.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
