School of Eng., St. Louis, MO Lines: 13 Keywords: language health inconsistencies (feed the hungry line eaters of the world) I noticed in Four to Doomsday that the Dr.(#5) could not understand the Australian aborigine and that Tegan had to translate for him. But in the Masque of Madragora, the Dr.(#4) explained to Sarah Jane that the reason she could understand the French(?) she was hearing, was because of a gift he shared with her.(this of course was how he knew she was in a trance) Now, is this bacause the Dr. (now Peter Davison) is still weak from his regeneration, or has he just lost the capability to understand all the languages of the Universe?
