In answer to a question about when the credit heading changed from "Doctor
Who" to "The Doctor" a reply by a John Ruschmeyer mentioned that at the end
of the LOGOPOLIS episode, the credits listed "The Doctor-Tom Baker" and
"Doctor Who-Peter Davison." As I remember it, the credits said "The Doctor-
Tom Baker" and then Tom's name disappeared and was replaced by Peter Davison's
under the same heading.

Also, in Jeff Mattson's artice on CASTROVALVA he refers to a "null room," as I
remember it was called the "Zero Room," and yes, it was the chamber that was
by chance ejected. Only the doors remained, which Tegan and Nyssa used to
construct the "Zero Cabinet" in which they tried to transport the Doctor to
the city of Castrovalva. Interestingly enough, the episode was supposedly named
for an M. C. Escher painting of the same name (supposedly one of a city with
the noted Escher twistings of perspective, making it look like it is folding in
on itself).  I checked out a book of Escher's work, and oddly enough, his
painting Castrovalva is of a city on a steeply cliffed hilltop, but the
painting is rather ordinary with no perspective-mangling artistic gymnastics,
such as can be found in his later works.
