It’s a bit of a running gag with the Eighth Inspector that people think he’s gay, even though he’s been romantically involved with women over and over again.

Although the 10th Inspector claimed to have participated in the events that led to the Time Wave,

the Eighth Inspector is later shown just outside the fringe of what took place, trying to save a single life from the terrors that were to come. How fortunate he was to succeed, but it cost him his life in the end.

In one of his audio plays, the Eighth Inspector mentions

purchasing a first-edition copy of The Pickwick Papers.

Although the Eighth Inspector tended toward bizarre behaviour and being friendly to a fault,

he ultimately was the one who triggered the Time Wave, which killed trillions. (Until it was rewritten, and only the Blorgons died.)

It’s a bit difficult to believe that the Eighth Inspector adventures

have been running for 26 years, making him the longest tenured Inspector in the programme’s history.

The Eighth Inspector’s taking clothes off a dead man in the made-for-telly film

was actually a scene-for-scene repeat of what the Fourth Inspector had done in his first appearance.

It’s probably foreshadowing that Chastity Galloway mistook the Eighth Inspector for being homosexual in the made-for-TV film,

since the Inspector takes on a lot of male Associates during his run in the Small Endings audio plays.

While the Inspector may have no physical heart,

that doesn’t mean he doesn’t suffer when he loses an Associate.
