Generally, articles don't get capitalised, unless they start a sentence or a title.

The article "the" in names like "the Doctor" and "the Master" should not be capitalised, except when they begin a sentence. The articles "a", "an", and "the" only should be capitalised in titles and proper nouns. "The first broadcast of an Unearthly Child..." should be written: "The first broadcast of An Unearthly Child..."

Additional restrictions on the use of capital letters apply to section headings.
