Page "Gallifrey" Paragraph 6

In " Gridlock ", the Doctor also mentions vast mountain ranges situated on Gallifrey, " with fields of deep red grass, capped with snow ".

In " The Time Monster " he reveals that " When I was a little boy, we used to live in a house that was perched halfway up the top of a mountain ", explaining, " I ran down that mountain and I found that the rocks weren't grey at all-but they were red, brown and purple and gold.

And those pathetic little patches of sludgy snow were shining white.

Shining white in the sunlight ".

In " Gridlock " he further elaborates how Gallifrey's second sun would " rise in the south and the mountains would shine ", with the silver-leafed trees looking like " a forest on fire " in the mornings.

In " The Sound of Drums ", the Doctor says that Gallifrey was called the Shining World of the Seventh System.
