Personality
Cushing's Doctor was a gentle, grandfatherly figure, naturally curious and sometimes absent-minded, but who at the same time was not afraid to fight for justice. He is shown to have a keen (and somewhat juvenile) sense of humour, and a strong sense of adventure with a will of iron and very strong morals. Unlike the Doctor in the television series, he is human, not a Time Lord, and is referred to on screen as "Dr. Who", not the Doctor (see also "Doctor who?"). He was an eccentric inventor who created his TARDIS, although it was not explained why it was in the shape of a police box.Canonicity
This Doctor is not generally considered to be canon, although attempts have been made in spin-off media to fit the films in with Doctor Who continuity.See also
