I’ve had a fun fan theroy for a while, that the Peter Cushing Doctor is The Doctor of Pete’s World. Suppose that at some point he stumbled across a galaxy in his universe ruled by an evil tyrant, and he realized there was no way he could stop the tyrant. There was a small resistance…
In Episode 4 of Doctor Who Series 9, “Before the Flood”, O’Donnell mentioned a Minister of War. There’s been a lot of speculation as to who it could be. My theory?
