And while watching that episode of the “Key to Time” series, a Mary Tamm played Romana, a female time lord, and in a different part, the actor Lalla Ward, went on to also play time lord Romana after some sort of forced regeneration stuff.

Not sure why they went missing from your “Female Time Lord Retrospective” that displays female time lords from even earlier episodes.

New to the forum, and a “fallen away” Dr. Who watcher, not really coming back after this “gap” you mention.

Anyway, the latest television set I have came with built-in Roku and access to streaming services, and poking around I find the streaming service named “Pluto” has a “Classic Doctor Who” streaming channel.   Amazing, at least to me.

While watching classic Tom Baker in the “Key to Time” series, the episode called “The Armageddon Factor,” in what might be called “Part Five” (of six), The Doctor meets another time lord,  Drax, and Drax calls The Doctor by his name. which sounds like “Pheeta Sigma.”

So I guess The Doctor’s name was known since 1979, and the rest of the questions and controversy is……what?

I’d like to hear back from any dedicated Whovians for an explanation of the name controversy past this episode.
