After the programme was cancelled at the end of 1989, his adventures continued in novels until the late 1990s though he did make televised appearances in “<a href="/wiki/List_of_supplementary_Doctor_Who_episodes" title="List of supplementary Doctor Who episodes">Search Out Space</a>” in 1990 and <i><a href="/wiki/Dimensions_in_Time" title="Dimensions in Time">Dimensions in Time</a></i> in 1993. The Seventh Doctor made an appearance at the start of <a href="/wiki/Doctor_Who_(film)" title="Doctor Who (film)">the 1996 film</a> before the character regenerated into the <a href="/wiki/Eighth_Doctor" title="Eighth Doctor">Eighth Doctor</a> (<a href="/wiki/Paul_McGann" title="Paul McGann">Paul McGann</a>). </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Overview">Overview</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Seventh_Doctor&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Overview"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In his first season, the Seventh Doctor started out as a comical character, engaging in <a href="/wiki/Dundrearyisms" class="mw-redirect" title="Dundrearyisms">dundrearyisms</a> ("Time and tide melt the snowman," or when partner Mel is kidnapped, "A bird in the hand keeps the Doctor away"), playing the spoons, and making <a href="/wiki/Physical_comedy" title="Physical comedy">pratfalls</a>, but later started to develop a darker nature. The Seventh Doctor era is noted for the cancellation of <i>Doctor Who</i> after 26 years. It is also noted for the <a href="/wiki/Virgin_New_Adventures" title="Virgin New Adventures">Virgin New Adventures</a>, a range of original novels published from 1992 to 1997, taking the series beyond the television serials. </p><p>The Seventh Doctor's final appearance on television was in the <a href="/wiki/Doctor_Who_(film)" title="Doctor Who (film)">1996 <i>Doctor Who</i> television movie</a>, where he regenerated into the <a href="/wiki/Eighth_Doctor" title="Eighth Doctor">Eighth Doctor</a>, played by <a href="/wiki/Paul_McGann" title="Paul McGann">Paul McGann</a>. A sketch of him is later seen in <a href="/wiki/Tenth_Doctor" title="Tenth Doctor">John Smith</a>'s <i>A Journal of Impossible Things</i> in the new series 2007 episode "<a href="/wiki/Human_Nature_(Doctor_Who)" title="Human Nature (Doctor Who)">Human Nature</a>". Brief archive clips of the Seventh Doctor appeared as holographic representations in "<a href="/wiki/The_Next_Doctor" title="The Next Doctor">The Next Doctor</a>" (2008), "<a href="/wiki/The_Eleventh_Hour_(Doctor_Who)" title="The Eleventh Hour (Doctor Who)">The Eleventh Hour</a>" (2010), the 50th anniversary special "<a href="/wiki/The_Day_of_the_Doctor" title="The Day of the Doctor">The Day of the Doctor</a>" (2013) and "<a href="/wiki/Twice_Upon_a_Time_(Doctor_Who)" title="Twice Upon a Time (Doctor Who)">Twice Upon a Time</a>" (2017), and as flashbacks in "<a href="/wiki/The_Name_of_the_Doctor" title="The Name of the Doctor">The Name of the Doctor</a>" (2013). The aged Seventh Doctor also appeared in two forms in "<a href="/wiki/The_Power_of_the_Doctor" title="The Power of the Doctor">The Power of the Doctor</a>" (2022). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Biography">Biography</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Seventh_Doctor&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Biography"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>When the <a href="/wiki/TARDIS" title="TARDIS">TARDIS</a> was attacked by <a href="/wiki/The_Rani_(Doctor_Who)" title="The Rani (Doctor Who)">the Rani</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Sixth_Doctor" title="Sixth Doctor">Sixth Doctor</a> was injured and forced to regenerate. After a brief period of post-regenerative confusion and amnesia (chemically induced by the Rani), the Seventh Doctor thwarted the Rani's plans, and rejoined his <a href="/wiki/Companion_(Doctor_Who)" title="Companion (Doctor Who)">companion</a> <a href="/wiki/Mel_Bush" title="Mel Bush">Mel</a> for whimsical adventures in an <a href="/wiki/Paradise_Towers" title="Paradise Towers">odd tower block</a> and a Welsh <a href="/wiki/Delta_and_the_Bannermen" title="Delta and the Bannermen">holiday camp in the 1950s</a>. </p><p>On the planet Svartos, Mel decided to leave the Doctor's company for that of intergalactic rogue <a href="/wiki/Sabalom_Glitz" class="mw-redirect" title="Sabalom Glitz">Sabalom Glitz</a>. Also at this time, the Doctor was joined by time-stranded teenager <a href="/wiki/Ace_(Doctor_Who)" title="Ace (Doctor Who)">Ace</a>. Although he did not mention it at the time, the Doctor soon recognised that an old enemy from a past adventure, the ancient entity known as <a href="/wiki/List_of_Doctor_Who_villains#Fenric" class="mw-redirect" title="List of Doctor Who villains">Fenric</a>, was responsible for the Time Storm which transported Ace from 1980s <a href="/wiki/Perivale" title="Perivale">Perivale</a> to Svartos in the distant future. Growing more secretive and driven from this point on, the Doctor took Ace under his wing and began teaching her about the universe, all the while keeping an eye out for Fenric's plot. </p><p>The Doctor began taking a more scheming and proactive approach to defeating evil, using the Gallifreyan stellar manipulator named the <a href="/wiki/Hand_of_Omega" class="mw-redirect" title="Hand of Omega">Hand of Omega</a> as part of an elaborate trap for the <a href="/wiki/Dalek" title="Dalek">Daleks</a> which resulted in the destruction of their home planet, <a href="/wiki/Skaro" class="mw-redirect" title="Skaro">Skaro</a>. Soon afterwards, the Doctor used a similar tactic and another <a href="/wiki/Time_Lord" title="Time Lord">Time Lord</a> relic to destroy a <a href="/wiki/Cyberman" title="Cyberman">Cyberman</a> fleet. He engineered the fall of the oppressive government of a future human colony in a single night and encountered the <a href="/wiki/List_of_Doctor_Who_villains#G" class="mw-redirect" title="List of Doctor Who villains">Gods of Ragnarok</a> at a circus on the planet Segonax, whom he had apparently fought throughout time. Later, he was reunited with his old friend, <a href="/wiki/Brigadier_Lethbridge-Stewart" title="Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart">Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart</a> while battling the forces of an alternate dimension on Earth. </p><p>The Seventh Doctor's manipulations were not reserved for his rivals. With the goal of helping Ace confront her past, he took her to a <a href="/wiki/Ghost_Light_(Doctor_Who)" title="Ghost Light (Doctor Who)">Victorian house</a> in her home town of <a href="/wiki/Perivale" title="Perivale">Perivale</a> in 1883 which she had <a href="/wiki/Arson" title="Arson">burned down</a> in 1983. Eventually, the Doctor confronted and defeated Fenric at a British <a href="/wiki/Navy" title="Navy">naval</a> base during <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>, revealing Fenric's part in Ace's history. The Doctor continued to act as Ace's mentor, returning her to Perivale; however, she chose to continue travelling with him. The circumstances of her parting from the Doctor were not shown on television. </p><p>Near the end of his incarnation, the Seventh Doctor was given the responsibility of transporting the remains of his former enemy <a href="/wiki/The_Master_(Doctor_Who)" title="The Master (Doctor Who)">the Master</a> from <a href="/wiki/Skaro" class="mw-redirect" title="Skaro">Skaro</a> to <a href="/wiki/Gallifrey" class="mw-redirect" title="Gallifrey">Gallifrey</a>. This proved to be a huge mistake; despite having a limited physical form, the Master was able to take control of the Doctor's TARDIS and cause it to land in 1999 San Francisco, where the Doctor was shot in the middle of a gang shoot-out. He was taken to a hospital, where surgeons removed the bullets but mistook the Doctor's double heartbeat for <a href="/wiki/Fibrillation" title="Fibrillation">fibrillation</a>; their attempt to save his life instead caused the Doctor to "die" with one last shocking scream. He is thus the only Doctor to have died at the (unwitting) hand of one of his own companions. Perhaps due to the anaesthesia, the Doctor did not regenerate immediately after death, unlike all previous occasions; he finally did so several hours later, while lying in the hospital's morgue. </p><p>An aged Seventh Doctor appeared as one of the "Guardians of the Edge" in an afterlife, inside the Doctor's mind in the final Thirteenth Doctor special, to the <a href="/wiki/Thirteenth_Doctor" title="Thirteenth Doctor">Thirteenth Doctor</a> as well as being a hologram programmed by the Doctor herself in ("<a href="/wiki/The_Power_of_the_Doctor" title="The Power of the Doctor">The Power of the Doctor</a>"). He also appeared as a hologram to an older Ace and she forgave him for everything that happened. </p><p>In <a href="/wiki/Tales_of_the_TARDIS" title="Tales of the TARDIS">Tales of the TARDIS</a>, he reunited with an older Ace and discussed their adventures. They also discussed the meeting with Fenric and both apologised to each other falling out. He also told her she had to leave to become who she is. </p><p>In <i><a href="/wiki/Time_and_the_Rani" title="Time and the Rani">Time and the Rani</a></i> (1987), the Seventh Doctor gives his age soon after his regeneration as "exactly" 953 years, indicating that some two centuries of subjective time has passed since his <a href="/wiki/Fourth_Doctor" title="Fourth Doctor">fourth incarnation</a> was revealed to be 756 in <i><a href="/wiki/The_Ribos_Operation" title="The Ribos Operation">The Ribos Operation</a></i> (1978), and approximately half a century since <i><a href="/wiki/Revelation_of_the_Daleks" title="Revelation of the Daleks">Revelation of the Daleks</a></i> (1985) in which the <a href="/wiki/Sixth_Doctor" title="Sixth Doctor">Sixth Doctor</a> stated he was 900 years old. The later revival of the series, however, contradicts earlier episodes by establishing the <a href="/wiki/Ninth_Doctor" title="Ninth Doctor">Ninth Doctor</a> as being 900 years old in "<a href="/wiki/Aliens_of_London" title="Aliens of London">Aliens of London</a>" (2005). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Personality">Personality</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Seventh_Doctor&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Personality"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The Seventh Doctor has the most profound change in attitude of any of the Doctor's incarnations, beginning as someone bumbling (to the extent of putting himself in danger but not at the cost of his overall great intelligence and benevolent intentions) and progressing into a driven, dark gamemaster whose plans to defeat his adversaries, both old and new, would play out across space and time. He generally displayed an affable, curious, knowledgeable, easygoing, excitable, and charming air. However, as he began to choose his battles and keep a tighter grip on his secrets – from his plans to his very identity – he also presented more serious, contemplative, secretive, wistful, and manipulative sides with undercurrents of mischief and authority (constantly giving the impression that there was more to him than met the eye). </p><p>As something of a showman, the Doctor would sometimes act like a buffoon, usually preferring to manipulate events from behind the scenes; much like his <a href="/wiki/Second_Doctor" title="Second Doctor">second incarnation</a>, he was prepared to play the fool to trick his foes into underestimating him, inevitably leading to their defeat at his hands. He was an adept physical performer and deployed a repertoire of magic tricks, illusions and escape artistry to this effect as part of his plans. Although his more obvious whimsical tendencies disappeared over time (particularly his spoons-playing), he maintained a fondness for idiosyncratic speeches that occasionally referred to literature, ordinary places and even food and drink amidst the weightier concerns on his mind. He was empathetic to his friends (and even his enemies, such as Helen A) and somewhat melancholic at times (such as during Mel's departure and before his decision to eradicate the Daleks) but now placed greater burdens upon himself in the name of protecting the universe. This may have led him to shroud his true intentions in mystery and the use of sleight of hand as befit his fondness for performance, in effect, subverting his more lighthearted qualities to complement and enhance his heroic and darker ones. </p><p>Given the Seventh Doctor's appearance and stature, he was surprisingly capable of both directly and indirectly taking control of situations involving strangers, using his greater intelligence to assess and direct events. Concerned with the bigger picture, he would sometimes overlook the finer details and his planning (both prepared and improvised) would sometimes have fatal results and consequences. When he acted to end threats, it was usually a ruthless, destructive and final manoeuvre. He was also not above hiding the truth from his friends and allies and using them to complete his schemes and gambits. </p><p>His tendency to reveal only select information to his companion Ace – as well as anyone else around them – was used both in her education and in their adventures, as if he were the only one who should know all the answers and others should come to their own conclusions. At two points he even abused Ace's trust in him, once to develop her as a person and again to keep her alive (on both occasions, freeing her from the evil influences that had haunted her during her life), while on one of these adventures, he showed great difficulty in admitting his foreknowledge of the situation's severity to her when she finally confronted him. In spite of his immense fondness for her, and hers for him, he often frustrated her with his secretive nature as his alien behaviour, the great importance of his objectives (especially his focus on obliterating enemies from his past) and his strong desire to both educate and protect her would lead him to keep even her in the dark and would even subordinate her feelings towards him to succeed in their battles. Their close, almost familial bond was likely what helped Ace in moving past the feelings of betrayal she sometimes felt towards the Doctor, particularly as he genuinely had her best interests at heart. In fact, while he appeared to be an unassuming figure, fond of performing magic tricks and displaying notable showmanship, the Seventh Doctor was actually quite powerful and calculating, for he would use his friends and foes alike as pawns in his elaborate <a href="/wiki/Chess" title="Chess">chess</a> game against "evil". As Ace herself put it, he was "well devious". </p><p>In direct contrast to his <a href="/wiki/Third_Doctor" title="Third Doctor">third incarnation</a>, this Doctor was absolutely opposed to violence of any sort (as demonstrated in stories such as <i><a href="/wiki/Battlefield_(Doctor_Who)" title="Battlefield (Doctor Who)">Battlefield</a></i>, where he stops a battle merely by ordering the warriors to desist) and he was totally against the use of firearms (to the extent of 'talking down' a soldier ordered to execute him in <i><a href="/wiki/The_Happiness_Patrol" title="The Happiness Patrol">The Happiness Patrol</a></i> by emphasising the easiness of the kill versus the enormity of ending a life), although he also proved capable of rendering a man unconscious with a touch (<i>Battlefield</i>, <i>Survival</i>). In keeping with his established habits, he would use gadgetry of his own invention when the situation called for it, but never as his final gambit. Instead, he almost always managed to talk his enemies into submission, often into suicide – perhaps most memorably in <i><a href="/wiki/Remembrance_of_the_Daleks" title="Remembrance of the Daleks">Remembrance of the Daleks</a></i>, where he taunts the seemingly last <a href="/wiki/Dalek" title="Dalek">Dalek</a> in existence until it self-destructs, or in <i><a href="/wiki/Ghost_Light_(Doctor_Who)" title="Ghost Light (Doctor Who)">Ghost Light</a></i>, where he defeats the dangerously unstable Light by ramming home the folly of trying to prevent evolution (he employs variations of this 'talk to death' tactic in <i><a href="/wiki/Dragonfire_(Doctor_Who)" title="Dragonfire (Doctor Who)">Dragonfire</a></i>, <i><a href="/wiki/Silver_Nemesis" title="Silver Nemesis">Silver Nemesis</a></i> and <i><a href="/wiki/The_Curse_of_Fenric" title="The Curse of Fenric">The Curse of Fenric</a></i>, although primarily to manipulate opponents to guarantee the outcome in his favour). </p><p>This Doctor also displays strange and 'alien' characteristics playing with the perception of his senses, as he smells an apple and listens to cheese in <i><a href="/wiki/Survival_(Doctor_Who)" title="Survival (Doctor Who)">Survival</a></i>, and listens to an apple briefly in <i><a href="/wiki/Delta_and_the_Bannermen" title="Delta and the Bannermen">Delta and the Bannermen</a></i>.

As with the three other Doctors costumed during the John Nathan-Turner era, the above-mentioned question marks on the Doctor's pullover and his umbrella handle continued the cherry-question-marked clothing motif that was introduced in the <a href="/wiki/Fourth_Doctor" title="Fourth Doctor">Fourth Doctor</a>'s final season and ended before the Seventh Doctor's regeneration. </p><p>Although a seemingly casual outfit that reflected the Seventh Doctor's initially easy and whimsical manner, it took on a new light when he became more scheming and prepared in his missions – to reflect the emergence of his personality's more mysterious and darker aspects, his jacket, hatband, handkerchief, scarf and tie became more muted and darker in colour, now in shades of burgundy and brown. In the New Adventures novels, images of the Doctor on the covers usually omitted the pullover and eventually depicted him in a cream single breasted suit. On a DVD featurette ("Light in Dark Places") for <i><a href="/wiki/Ghost_Light_(Doctor_Who)" title="Ghost Light (Doctor Who)">Ghost Light</a></i>, when drawing attention to the stylistic choice of performing in most of the serial without his hat and umbrella, Sylvester McCoy expresses some disdain for the garment, feeling it detracts somewhat from the mood of the story. The changes in colours make the Seventh the only Doctor under Nathan-Turner's tenure to greatly alter his costume; the changes to the outfits worn by his three previous selves during this production period tended to be more subtle and less noteworthy. The Seventh's own attire was repeatedly revised during his first season, initially including a crimson/black <a href="/wiki/Tartan" title="Tartan">tartan</a> scarf and burgundy braces, along with the <a href="/wiki/Whangee_bamboo" class="mw-redirect" title="Whangee bamboo">whangee bamboo</a>-handle umbrella. </p> <figure class="mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Seventh_Doctor%27s_TV_Movie_Clothing.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/16/Seventh_Doctor%27s_TV_Movie_Clothing.jpg/250px-Seventh_Doctor%27s_TV_Movie_Clothing.jpg" decoding="async" width="250" height="292" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/1/16/Seventh_Doctor%27s_TV_Movie_Clothing.jpg 1.5x" data-file-width="292" data-file-height="341" /></a><figcaption>The Seventh Doctor's TV Movie costume.</figcaption></figure> <p>In the <a href="/wiki/Doctor_Who_(1996_film)" class="mw-redirect" title="Doctor Who (1996 film)">TV movie</a> the Doctor's costume changed again, with a return to a lighter jacket, now a light brown tweed.

However, the Doctor retained his Panama hat. </p><p>The Doctor enjoyed using his hat, umbrella and the TARDIS key, amongst other items, as physical props, usually as showy affectations or to command attention, while the umbrella could also be used to disarm and trip foes (<i>Paradise Towers</i>, <i>Battlefield</i>, <i>Ghost Light</i>, <i>Survival</i>). Like most of his previous selves, the Seventh carried any number of random items in his pockets, including technological devices and books (<i>Dragonfire</i>, <i>Ghost Light</i>).

However, in the final two seasons with <a href="/wiki/Andrew_Cartmel" title="Andrew Cartmel">Andrew Cartmel</a> as script editor, the stories soon explored the true nature of the Doctor, hinting at dark secrets in his past.

McCoy told the <i>Sunday Times</i> in 2010, "The idea of bringing politics into <i>Doctor Who</i> was deliberate, but we had to do it very quietly and certainly didn't shout about it...We were a group of politically motivated people and it seemed the right thing to do. At the time Doctor Who used satire to put political messages out there in the way they used to do in places like Czechoslovakia. Our feeling was that Margaret Thatcher was far more terrifying than any monster the Doctor had encountered. Those who wanted to see the messages saw them; others, including one producer, didn't." One story mentioned as having an anti-Thatcher theme was <i><a href="/wiki/The_Happiness_Patrol" title="The Happiness Patrol">The Happiness Patrol</a></i> in which the tyrannical Helen A outlawed unhappiness and remarked "I like your initiative, your enterprise" as her secret police rounded up dissidents.
