About The Fifth Doctor The put-upon Edwardian cricketer. Blessed with a "pleasant open face", the Fifth Doctor lived his life according to the British tradition of fair play, determined to make the best of bad situations, his episodes gained the air of a field trip gone horrifically wrong, his stories tending to have high body counts. This Doctor behaved a bit like an older brother towards his companions — or perhaps an exasperated team dad whenever things would inevitably go haywire. At the same time, he also had stronger shades of an absent-minded professor than usual, sometimes to the point where he got himself and others into trouble simply by not paying enough attention. While the Doctor was no stranger to running afoul of local authorities — either due to misunderstandings or the local authorities being of the oppressive types- and getting arrested and imprisoned as a result, it happened so often to Five that it became something of a running gag for his era.
