- ALT1 is untrue, there were several episodes in the 1963-69 period where the Doctor is completely absent, normally because the actor was on holiday that week (examples include "The Screaming Jungle" and "The Snows of Terror"), but also when the actor was playing a different character (e.g. "The Sea Beggar"). --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 19:42, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
