	Professor Chronotis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Professor Chronotis was played by Denis Carey in the unaired 1980 version of Shada, and by James Fox in the webcast remake, which was also released as an audio play on CD by Big Finish.
		Chronotis - or "Reg" as he is known — holds the post of Regius Professor of Chronology at Cambridge University.
		Here Chronotis is so old and forgetful that he has no idea who or what he originally was, though he has vague memories of Cleopatra (who he claims wore outrageous earrings and reeked of cat food).

	Professor Chronotis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Professor (Reg) Chronotis is a fictional character created by Douglas Adams.
		His Chair of Chronology was created by mad king George III who was terrified that if time were to start flowing backwards, all the bad experiences of his life might reoccur.
		In both versions, Chronotis is a clandestine time-traveller, whose time machine (or TARDIS in the lingo of Doctor Who) is disguised as his College rooms.

	Shada
		Chronotis tells him that the last master of the college died when he was run over by a coach.
		The Doctor tells the rushing off Professor (rushing off to make tea) that he will be back in two minutes but then he whispers to Romana if he is not back in two hours, she and the Professor should lock themselves in the TARDIS and send out an all frequency alert and wait.
		Chronotis tells him he doesn't know where the book is. Skagra opens the bag and the silver sphere attaches to the Professor's head and he falls.

		Elements of the story were reused by Adams for his novel Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, in particular the character of Professor Chronotis who possesses a time machine.

		I love the idea of a Cambridge Professor being a retired Time Lord whose TARDIS is disguised as his collage rooms; I love the wonderful silliness of the Doctor convincing Skagra's ship that he is dead; and I love the idea of the Sphere.
		In addition however, Carey shows the Professor's hidden complexities; with the sadly unrecorded revelation that he is the notorious criminal Salyavin, Chronotis' occasionally glimpsed darker side is highly significant, and Carey plays it very well.
		The Professor's absent mindedness vanishes once he realises who Skagra is really after, and he becomes both grave and deadly serious when he is explaining things to Claire.
