doyleFrom Big Finish's latest Fifth Doctor audio:
"Here, are you Peri? Got a letter for you. Northern chap with big ears left it here about two years ago..."
ETA: from this play I assume Five so enjoyed Richard III's sarcastically Northern way of speaking - right down to "fantastic!" - that he based his ninth incarnation on the guy. Which makes sense, considering his sixth incarnation is a dead ringer for that Time Lord guard in Arc of Infinity.
ETA2: having listened to the whole thing I'm delighted that there's no twist where the 'Northern chap' turns out to be someone else: Five leaves a note in the TARDIS reminding any of his future selves that happen to be passing through the right time period to leave the letter for Peri. So, Nine acknowledged in a non-BBC production! I am very chuffed. And the "What the Shakespeare?" gag from The Unquiet Dead gets riffed on too.
