 Five doctors agree with examiner in Scientology death
Two of the doctors questioned the Church of Scientology's statement that McPherson "suddenly took ill" and its suggestion that a staph infection was a major factor in her death.
The doctor who pronounced her dead concluded on a report that she died of "sepsis," which is the presence of bacteria or other disease-causing organisms in the blood.
All of the doctors were given the lab results that Wood used as the cornerstone for her conclusions in the case.

 DVD Times: Region 2 Reviews: Dr Who: The Five Doctors
The then present Doctor (Peter Davison) is drawn to the zone where he joins up with the others as they make their way to the Tower of Rasillon at the heart of the zone, avoiding encounters with Daleks and Cybermen along the way.
The version of 'The Five Doctors' presented on this DVD isn't the original 90 min special which was transmitted back in 1983 though.
A couple of years ago Encore released three 'Doctor Who' titles onto Laserdisc and the fans were amazed at the clarity of the picture, however those releases are now well and truly put into the shade by the picture and sound on this disc.

 Outpost Gallifrey: Reviews
Sadly, once reunited with his other incarnations, the Second Doctor reverts to the same caricature that was seen during his first appearance in the story, and which harkens back to the 'The Three Doctors'; nevertheless, for a little while as he and the Brigadier dodge Cybermen and run from the Yeti, Troughton's old magic returns.
The presence of a Dalek in 'The Five Doctors' is purely gratuitous, but this is the anniversary and given that the Daleks were crucial to the early success of the programme, it is genuinely understandably rather than just another element thrown in from the past at random.
And that perhaps is the best way to sum up 'The Five Doctors'; it's a fun romp, it works in a sort of shallow congratulatory way, and Dicks does very well to achieve even that considering the number of elements he was required to factor in.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Vineam Domini
Forty doctors of the Sorbonne, among them Ellies Du Pin, Petitpied, Bourret, Sarrasin, and Natalis Alexander, decided that absolution could not be withheld, since the case was neither new nor extraordinary, and since the penitent's opinion was not condemned by the Church.
Though the decision was given secretly on 20 July, 1701, the Jansenists published the case in July, 1702, with the signatures of the forty doctors of the Sorbvonne: "Cas de conscience par un confesseur de Province.
Despite the banishment of five doctors of the Sorbonne who refused to submit, the controversy continued, and King Louis XIV, seconded by the Bourbon King Philip V of Spain, requested the pope to issue a Constitution condemning the so-called respectful silence.

 A Brief History Of Time (Travel): The Five Doctors   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Originally, it was the Fourth Doctor who travelled to the Capitol, while the Fifth Doctor went on to the Dark Tower and the First Doctor remained behind in the TARDIS with Susan and Turlough.
To ensure that the Fourth Doctor still had a presence in The Five Doctors, Nathan-Turner hit upon the idea of using clips of the Fourth Doctor and Romana from Shada, a serial originally destined to be the finale of Season Seventeen which had been shut down mid-production by a labour dispute.
Originally, Katy Manning (Jo Grant) was to join the Third Doctor and the Brigadier, until it was realised that the actress was now living in Australia, and the cost to fly her back to England for The Five Doctors proved prohibitive.

 GreenCine | product main - Doctor Who - The Five Doctors (1983)
Doctor Who celebrated its 20th anniversary with the 90-minute special "The Five Doctors." The life of the present Doctor (Peter Davison) is jeopardized when his four previous incarnations -- played by William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee, and Tom Baker -- are taken out of time by an illegal Time Scoop.
Written by Terrance Dicks, "The Five Doctors" was first presented in America on November 23, 1983, two days before its British TV debut.
It's worth recognizing, though, that the original version of "The Five Doctors" will probably be released one day, and in the meantime, this really isn't a bad disc (certainly not the worst of the Region 1 line, by a long shot).

CLEARWATER - Five pathologists say it is clear from key lab results that Lisa McPherson was severely dehydrated when she died after a 17-day stay at a Church of Scientology retreat.
While many of their conclusions echo what Wood has said about McPherson's death, most of the doctors said they needed more information before they could say, as Wood did, that McPherson was unconscious for up to 48 hours before her death and did not have liquids for five to 10 days.
Five pathologists, including a worldwide expert on post-mortem chemistry from Minnesota, were given those lab results to see what their conclusions were.

The original version of The Five Doctors was the first story I bought on sale video, and I saw it before the normal sequence of Peter Davison stories that were being shown on PBS.
And the Second Doctor's solo presence implies that he came here inbetween the verdict and sentencing at his trial--there is a hint of that when he encounters Jamie and Zoe, his last travelling companions.

 Who's Doctor Who? - The Laws of Time
In the sections covering events before the series began, I've assumed The Doctor's early travels were part of his Academy training, and that after graduation he had further adventures during his doctoral studies.
This work assumes that The Doctor's adventures take place in a (reasonably) consistent universe, and that the actions of The Doctor and his companions are an integral part of that universe's history.
To further support this idea, at the time of his trial by a Gallifreyan tribunal, The Sixth Doctor is 900 years old, and The Seventh Doctor says that both he and The Rani, who'd certainly use the Gallifreyan calendar, are 953.
