	Are you certain it was between those two episodes?  I thought
that the revisions came during "Enlightenment".  As you'll recall, the
Eternals made the TARDIS vanish for good.  Only when they needed the
Doctors help did they reassemble it.  They did this by having the
Doctor concentrate his thoughts on the TARDIS.  They picked his mind
and reconstructed the TARDIS.  I distinctly remember Toulough (sp?)
asking the Doctor "Is it the TARDIS?  Will it really work?"
and the Doctor replying "Probably better than ever, I suspect."
	Perhaps the Doctor imagined in his mind what the TARDIS should
look like if it were in tip-top shape (which, in the past, it never
has been).  The Eternals created for him the new, improved TARDIS.
