Summary: Doctor... who?

Not quite, but consider the following (approximate) dialogue from
"the Gunfighters":
"... and I am doctor Kaligari (sp?)"
"Doctor... who?"
"Quite right!"

It seems that although he never  introduced  himself  as  "Doctor
Who",  he  did not consider it an entirely inappropriate name for
him.

And now, for another oddity in "the War Machines".  How  did  the
Doctor have such a familiarity with England's scientific communi-
ty (being allowed  to  visit  the  Wotan  room,  staying  at  Sir
Charles'  home,  etc.)?   If  I  remember  correctly, in the UNIT
stories, nobody liked him and, if it wasn't for his UNIT  connec-
tions (which he didn't seem to have at the time of TWM), he would
have been thrown out instantly from almost anywhere.
