Some googling suggests that apparently in many countries the show has run under different names. In Mexico, it showed as "Doctor Mysterio" (back in the Tom and Colin Baker days). These shows were apparently highly edited, and with... creative translating in the voiceovers, entire plots removed, and so on.

Oh, and that G? Note that behind it is somethign that's like an I. GI. Great Intelligence?

And also, it would appear, many nude ladies frequently seen reclining on couches. Strange...

Sorry, that's yet another Doctor.

I still think Doctormus Prime would be better

Thanks. I'm only familiar with the modern Doctors (Eccleston and beyond), and even then details grow fuzzy with age
