Possibly, or there may be have been some b/w shots taken too, perhaps standing to this photographer's right for a better-matching angle. (Or Geary just adapted it to his needs.)

This variant maybe, more collar visible, though his mouth is closed.

Ah, could well be, or one very like it from that roll. Flipped and with some artistic licence around the collar. Good spot! 👍

Potentially, though I feel the image in my mind is that way round.

That's my understanding (didn't want to direct people's thoughts by naming a story) but can't find the right pose.

You mean average amount of screen time per year? Chris doesn't really fit as it works out to an episode every week! Otherwise, Bill and Pat have most, obviously; surprising Peter's ahead of Tom, while Ncuti matches him; and shows that tho Jodie's tenure was long she didn't have much on in that time.

Bye, Hon. Now Ncuti's era comes to an end, how does his tenure compare to previous Doctors'?

I was intrigued by the Whittaker claim (which I agree passed everyone by) so looked into the data. If you measure from first to last tv appearances, though, Tennant's first run had already surpassed Pertwee's by 6 weeks. But surprising Jodie is second to Tom! (Tho McCoy's longest if you count 87-96)
