During childbirth, Edward's mother and family were under attack by a Demon. The Demon wanted to kill Edward so that it could unravel the Doctor's timeline. The Eighth Doctor and future Edward managed to banish the Demon before it caused any harm to the newborn Edward. (ST: Prologue)

When Edward was eight, the Third Doctor came to visit his house to investigate voices that Edward was hearing on his gramophone. The Doctor found that an alien had been trapped in the player while it was being made and was trying to escape by screaming for help. The Doctor freed the alien and allowed it to go home. When he left, he told Edward that he would lead a very eventful life. (ST: Echoes)

During the First World War, the Fourth Doctor saved Edward's life when a bomb was about to land where he was standing. (ST: Direct Action)

During the Second World War Edward was looking for the love of his life, Mai Ling, in Japanese-controlled China. Edward was captured by the Japanese and put in prison. The Seventh Doctor helped him escape from the prison. After his escape Edward received a letter from the British Government in response to a recommendation from the Doctor for him to become a British Operative. (ST: Log 384)
