Back in the 'classic' days, the eighties mainly, whenever the Master appeared in a story either he would have some anagrammatised or otherwise 'translated' character name (Sir Gilles Estram; the Portreeve) or the actor, Anthony Ainley, would be billed anagrammatically (Neil Toynay - Tony Ainley; James Stoker - Master's Joke). Even the character played by Ainley who became the Master, Tremas, was an anagram. Mind you, earlier seasons touched on this at least once - in "The Daemons", the Master was in disguise as a country vicar named Mr Magister, latin for..?
Then we had a scientist character called Dastari ("a TARDIS"). Even the Daleks were retroactively turned into anagrams of sorts of their race, the Kaleds.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
