Be interesting to have a story exploring why they only existed in our universe.”
Oh well that's quite boring then, no chance of a goatee'd David Tennant turning up as the head of the evil Gallifrey overlord empire then!
It'd also suggest Time Lords travelled to alternate versions of Gallifrey and extinguished the population of their mirror home planet to make sure they were the only Time and Space and Universe travelling species....and they did that for the infinity or so universes there are supposed to be?
Maybe they have a little alarm or something when an opposite and equal reaction creates another alternate universe with Time Lords in it....off they go to exterminate...
Hmmm.....
