Far back in the ancient
mists of time I produced a fanzine which contained an article about the
now well-documented theory of season 6b and various other unseen adventures
which we know about because the Doctor has mentioned them. I'm not a great
follower of spin-off fiction, so apologies if some or all of these have
since been made into Missing Adventure books, or whatever, but here are
my fictional seasons charting the unseen Doctor Who adventures. These
stories are listed in the order we hear about them, aside from their adventure
on Quinnis which can be deduced to be their last landing before Totter's
Lane.

of the Second Doctor
It is not certain where these can fit in, but as Jamie is not recognised
by Padmasambvha we can only assume they are solo second Doctor adventures,
or Ben and Polly adventures.

The Missing Troughton Seasons - The Season 6B Theory
In
1995, Paul Cornell put forward a rather wonderful theory which accounted
for the following facts: In The Three Doctors, the second Doctor
is a little older than he should be, and companionless. He is older again
in The Five Doctors and even more so in The Two Doctors,
in which he appears with a much older Jamie. In The Two Doctors
is also able to accurately pilot the TARDIS, has a remote control for
it, and says he works for the Time Lords! This is not the second Doctor
we knew! The final fact to slot in is that in The Five Doctors,
the second Doctor has full knowledge of the trial which was supposedly
part of his final story, The War Games. Also to bear in mind
is that the Doctor is aged 450 in Tomb of the Cybermen, but by
the time of Pyramids of Mars he's 750! When did he fit in hundreds
of years of adventures? Also, remember Sarah Jane finds the second Doctor's
trademark recorder in the wood-panelled control room in The Masque of
Mandragora?
The theoretical explanation for all this is that at the end of the trial
in The War Games, as the Doctor is tumbling away, the Celestial
Intervension Agency, er, intervenes. A bargain is struck, the regeneration
is postponed, and the Doctor is sent on his way with a revamped TARDIS
and told to go on some missions for the Time Lords.
