The '''Seventh Doctor''' was the seventh incarnation of the [[Time Lord]] known as the [[The Doctor|Doctor]]. Originally an eccentric, light-hearted buffoon, this incarnation's jolly persona eventually darkened into that of a mysterious, cunning manipulator to properly combat the return of [[Fenric]].

<!--For the introduction brief, avoid using story links, as this paragraph is a reflection of how the Doctor lived their life, and thus covers a wider range than goes beyond a single story entry.-->
Originally a man with the demeanour of an eccentric, light-hearted buffoon who delighted in humorous reverie, the '''Seventh Doctor''' darkened into a Machiavellian manipulator to combat [[Fenric]]'s return, becoming a sombre genius of frightful calibre who could tactfully use his mind to manipulate almost any situation into reaching his favoured outcome for the "greater good", actively seeking out evil to vanquish instead of traveling aimlessly. However, he could also show profound warmth and affection to his [[companion]]s, and built a strong bond with many of them, almost becoming a substitute parent-like figure in his handling of them, even if he had to hurt some of his closest friends by toying with their minds as part of his schemes.


Like his immediate predecessor, the Seventh Doctor continued to travel with [[Melanie Bush]]. Though she was found his new persona hard to get used to, the Doctor eventually won her over by the time that she left with [[Sabalom Glitz]] to help him reform.
In his early days, the Doctor was little more than a carefree traveller seeing the universe with [[Mel Bush]] after escaping the scheme of the [[First Rani]] on [[Lakertya]], with the pair arriving at the likes of [[Paradise Towers]] and [[Shangri-La]] [[Wales]] as the Doctor began to change from a clown to a schemer, until they came to [[Iceworld]] and met [[Ace]], a troubled teenager from [[1980s]] [[Earth]] who the Doctor recognised as a [[Wolf of Fenric]], and the Doctor, realising he could no longer avoid his rematch with Fenric, nudged Mel into leaving with [[Sabalom Glitz]] while he took Ace on as a companion. Treating her both as his protégé and a pawn in Fenric's game, the Doctor did his best to heal Ace's psychological wounds by helping her come to terms with her past misdeeds and fears, aiding her in maturing and supporting her in moments of difficulty, while he descended more into a dark deceiver, even tricking [[Davros]] into destroying [[Skaro]] with the [[Hand of Omega]] to end the [[Imperial-Renegade Dalek Civil War]], killing [[Helen A]]'s pet [[Stigorax]] to topple her regime on [[Terra Alpha]] and destroying a [[Cyber-Fleet]] with [[Nemesis]].


During his last adventure with Mel, the Doctor gained a new companion in the troubled [[1980s]] teenager [[Ace]]. The Doctor did his best to try helping heal the psychological wounds in Ace by helping her overcome or come to terms with her past misdeeds or fears. Though he initially planned on returning Ace home, they ultimately travelled together for several years. How they were seperated remains unknown.
After they freed the [[Psychic Circus]] from the [[Gods of Ragnarok]] with the [[Vulpanan]] [[werewolf]] [[Mags (The Greatest Show in the Galaxy)|Mags]], the Doctor left Ace in the [[Cretaceous]] period and reunited with [[Frobisher]] for some brief adventures until they parted ways again. As he travelled alone, the Doctor ran into the likes of [[Death's Head]] and [[Abslom Daak]], until he retrieved Ace. In their continued adventures, they assisted [[UNIT]] in stopping [[Morgaine]] from obtaining [[Excalibur]] and prevented [[Josiah Samuel Smith]]'s plan to assassinate [[Queen]] [[Victoria]], before they had their fated showdown with Fenric at [[1943]] [[Maiden's Point]], where they emerged victorious. The Doctor then brought Ace back to her home of [[Perivale]] in time to face the [[Tremas Master]] on the [[Cheetah Planet]]. After the Master was left on the Cheetah Planet as it exploded, accounts differ on the Doctor and Ace's exploits after they departed Perivale with "work to do".  


Later in his life, the Seventh Doctor regenerated in [[San Francisco]] on [[31 December]] [[1996]] after Dr. [[Grace Holloway]] performed exploratory surgery on him. The regeneration itself was delayed due to the anaesthesia. ([[DW]]: ''[[Doctor Who (1996)]]'')
According to [[2-D universe|one account]], the Doctor and Ace quickly found themselves caught in the schemes of the [[Mandragora Helix]] and attended a party on ''[[Maruthea]]''. In conjunction with [[Virgin reality|another account]], the Doctor began to embrace his role as [[Time's Champion]], in which he worked in the service of the [[Eternal]] known as [[Time (Set Piece)|Time]], by the time he faced the [[Timewyrm]]. Although he did many good deeds while under the title of Time's Champion, his manipulative ways and amoral decisions cost him dearly, with Ace leaving him as he was joined by [[Bernice Summerfield]] on [[Heaven]]. Ace would eventually return, though the Doctor was unable to regain her trust until they defeated {{Champion}} and his plot to corrupt the Doctor's timeline. Ace would eventually leave to become "[[Time's Vigilante]]" and Bernice would depart to marry [[Jason Kane]], leaving the Doctor to travel with [[Adjudicator]]s [[Roz Forrester]] and [[Chris Cwej]] until Roz died in battle and Chris left to see the universe with a [[Time Ring]] after a trip to the [[House of Lungbarrow]], where the Doctor was also asked to collect the [[Old Master]]'s remains from Skaro.
 
In [[Positive-time universe|a differing account]], the Doctor tried to have Ace join the [[Time Lord Academy]], though she rejected going, just as they were embroiled in a series of adventures involving [[Raine Creevy]]. After some brief adventures with [[Bev Tarrant]] and foiling [[Elizabeth Klein]]'s temporal scheme at [[Colditz Castle]], the Doctor and Ace were joined by [[Hex]], who became a key player in the Doctor's feud with [[the Forge]] and the [[Elder God]]s. After Hex left to start a family, the Doctor was re-joined by Mel. In this account, the Doctor still went on to have adventures with Bernice, Roz and Chris, and he reunited with Bernice and Ace for a few more adventures, while also taking on Klein as a companion until her actions rewrote her timeline. As Ace had decided to become a Time Lord, the Doctor found himself reconnecting with old friends like Mags, [[Harry Sullivan]] and [[Naomi Cross]] to have them as companions as he tended to the universe.
 
Eventually, after all his friends had left him, the Doctor dedicated himself to his mission of protecting the history of the universe, even traveling back down his own timeline to attend to his unfinished business and clean up after his previous incarnations. Though he asked some people to become his new companion, the Doctor resigned himself to a solitary existence, only seeking out his old companions when they proved useful to his plans, which only alienated him further away from them. However, after an encounter with the [[Eight Legs]], the Doctor decided to embrace his older jollier side before he met his fate, allowing him to face his final adventures with high spirits.
 
After many years of schemes and manipulations, the Doctor ironically met his end in events out of his control after being caught at the wrong place at the wrong time due to crash-landing in [[San Francisco]] on [[31 December]] [[1999]] while taking the Master's remains to [[Gallifrey]]. As he realised the Master had somehow survived his execution, the Doctor was shot by a San Francisco gang on the streets and then fatally injured when Dr. [[Grace Holloway]]'s exploratory surgery on his [[firearm|gunshot]] wounds accidentally clogged a vein. Due to the [[anaesthetic]] in his system, he did not properly regenerate into his [[Eighth Doctor|next incarnation]] until several hours had past.

The [[First Doctor]] would occasionally have premonitions of his future incarnations, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|A Big Hand for the Doctor (short story)}}) and there was a rumour that he was able to glimpse his first seven regenerations during a game of [[Eighth Man Bound]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Christmas on a Rational Planet (novel)}}, {{cs|Lungbarrow (novel)}})
 
When the First Doctor learned that he was diverted from the [[South Pole]] by "[[Dalek|forces from the future]]" to stop him from becoming [[War Doctor|an incarnation]] that would play a key role in [[Last Great Time War|a future conflict]], he was informed by [[The Player (The Plague of Dreams)|the Player]] that he would have "lots of new faces" before he regenerated into the incarnation involved in the conflict. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Plague of Dreams (audio story)}}) Shortly before his regeneration, the First Doctor was told of "a few false starts" before he became the [[Twelfth Doctor]], and was later shown footage of the Seventh Doctor, as well as his ten other successors, by the [[Testimony]] when he expressed doubt over the [[Twelfth Doctor]]'s identity. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Twice Upon a Time (TV story)}})
 
While meeting a [[Tenth Doctor|future incarnation]], the Fourth Doctor considered the implications that this future incarnation represented all the lives he'd live before reaching this point. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Out of Time (audio story)}})
 
When the [[Fifth Doctor]] was under the influence of the Dark, he saw a nightmare image of himself regenerating as far as his seventh incarnation on a blood soaked altar. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Fear of the Dark (novel)}}) [[Mawdryn]] attempted to force the Fifth Doctor to use up his eight remaining [[regeneration]]s to end his follower's cycle of perpetual rebirth, but this was rendered unnecessary when [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]] made physical contact with his younger self and a discharge of temporal energy was released that allowed Mawdryn and his followers to die. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Mawdryn Undead (TV story)}}) The Seventh Doctor was described as "the schemer" by [[TARDIS (Prisoners of Fate)|the Doctor's first TARDIS]] to the Fifth Doctor. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Prisoners of Fate (audio story)}})
 
After losing his [[body]] to the [[Time Lord]]s, {{Ainley}} made a failed attempt to steal the regenerations of the Fifth Doctor. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Velvet Dark (short story)}}) The Fifth Doctor was told by [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]] that he had worked with eight other incarnations of the Doctor by [[1999]], including four of his future incarnations. The Doctor himself recalled an encounter with his seventh incarnation, recalling him as a "curious little chap". ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The King of Terror (novel)}}) The Fifth Doctor was told of his seventh incarnation by [[Alan Fitzgerald]], who claimed "he knows everything" when unfavourably comparing the Fifth Doctor to his future incarnation. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Gathering (audio story)}})
 
After the TARDIS became "stalled in the equivalent of a galactic lay-by", the [[Sixth Doctor]] had a worried thought of [[Peri Brown]] growing old and dying in the TARDIS, while he would "go on regenerating until all [his] lives [were] spent". ([[TV]]: {{cs|Vengeance on Varos (TV story)}}) When investigating the presence of the [[Players]] in [[1936]], the Sixth Doctor hired [[Tom Dekker]] as private security, with Dekker telling him about his past as a private detective in Chicago, where Dekker had met a man named John Smith, commonly known as "Doc", but the Doctor dismissed the idea that "Doc" could be his future self. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Players (novel)}}) During an encounter with {{O'Mara}} on [[Koturia]], the Sixth Doctor was warned his regeneration could "happen sooner than [he thought]". ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Something Borrowed (short story)}}) Visiting the [[Garden of Fond Memories]] on [[Necros]], the Sixth Doctor was shocked to find a [[statue]] made in his likeness, which he took as evidence that he would die without regenerating. However, he soon discovered that it was a fake, later determined to have been placed by [[Davros]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Revelation of the Daleks (TV story)}})
 
Upon meeting his [[Eighth Doctor|eighth]] incarnation, the Sixth Doctor pondered what lay in store for the incarnation directly between them. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Eight Doctors (novel)}}) When {{Ainley}} exposed [[the Valeyard]]'s alliance with [[High Council]] to the Sixth Doctor at his trial, he revealed that the Valeyard was acting as the prosecutor for the trial in exchange for the Doctor's remaining [[regeneration]]s. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Ultimate Foe (TV story)}}) The Valeyard offered to tell the Sixth Doctor of his next incarnation, whom he claimed was filled with "plots and schemes," all to win a game "that was never his to win." ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Trial of the Valeyard (audio story)}}) After blaming himself for the deaths of [[Reid]] and [[Krisztina]], the Sixth Doctor hoped he would do better in his next incarnation. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Arrangements for War (audio story)}})
 
While poisoned, the Sixth Doctor and [[Evelyn Smythe]] observed the Seventh Doctor, Ace and Hex. Evelyn noted that the Seventh Doctor seemed "a rather jolly man", while the Sixth Doctor commented that he heard his seventh incarnation was "always blowing up planets". ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The 100 Days of the Doctor (audio story)}}) When she met him out of sequence, the [[Second Rani]] told the Sixth Doctor that she was expecting "the little man with the hat and the umbrella", only for the Doctor to interrupt her before he could hear more about his future self. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Rani Elite (audio story)}}) After being mortally wounded by [[Zor (Piece of Mind)|Zor]], the Sixth Doctor began to regenerate, and was on the brink of a [[regenerative collapse]] when he was found and healed by [[Captain]] [[Jack Harkness]] after the TARDIS landed in late [[20th century]] [[Wales]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Piece of Mind (audio story)}}) When discussing cosmetic surgery, the Sixth Doctor said he would change his appearance "over [his] dead body". ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Reverse Engineering (audio story)}})
 
=== Post-regeneration ===
[[File:TimeAndRani.jpg|thumb|The newly regenerated Doctor. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Time and the Rani (TV story)}})]]
{{Main|Sixth Doctor's regeneration}}
According to one account, the [[Sixth Doctor]], after being sapped of [[chronon energy]] whilst fighting the [[Lamprey]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Spiral Scratch (novel)}}) suffered a fatal head injury ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Zagreus (audio story)}}) due to the buffeting of the TARDIS caused by {{O'Mara}}'s laser bombardment. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Time and the Rani (TV story)}}) Indeed, another account indentified the cause of the regeneration as a "bumpy crash-landing". ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|First Day of the Doctor (short story)}})
 
A second account showed that the Sixth Doctor was sent a psychic signal advising him to go to the planet [[Lakertya]], despite an ominous source of [[radiation]] being nearby. Upon approaching Lakertya, the TARDIS came under attack from focused beams of the radiation being fired from [[the Rani's TARDIS]]. Whilst Mel only passed out, the Doctor was mortally wounded by the radiation. As the persona of the Seventh Doctor manifested before him, the Doctor's sixth persona dissolved into his seventh, both agreeing their future was "in safe hands." ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Brink of Death (audio story)}})
 
After the laser attack, the TARDIS was caught in the Rani's [[tractor beam]], and forced to make a landing on Lakertya's surface, where the Rani and her [[Tetrap]] servant, [[Urak]], boarded the TARDIS and abducted the Doctor as his regeneration concluded, taking him to the Rani's laboratory. Awakening in the Rani's lab, the Doctor immediately recognised her, but was knocked out by Urak and injected with an [[amnesia]]-inducing drug, which allowed the Rani to trick him into assisting her with her project by pretending to be Mel. Upon regaining consciousness again, the partially amnesiac Doctor first decided to choose a new look, before returning to work on the Rani's machine, having been convinced by "Mel" that he had been working on it before an accident caused him to regenerate.
 
However, as the Doctor found what was wrong with it, the real Mel snuck into the lab and the two convinced each other of their identities, exposing the Rani's lies. Escaping, the Doctor discovered that several other geniuses from throughout time, including [[Albert Einstein]] and [[Hypatia]], had been captured to act as components of the Rani's "time brain". Forced to become the final component, the Doctor's still recovering mind caused it to spout nonsense, though he also inadvertently provided the brain with the means to determine the needed substance: [[Loyhargil]]. The Lakertyan leader, [[Beyus]], then sacrificed his life to destroy the brain and delay the launch long enough for the rocket to miss the asteroid. Rescuing the captives, the Doctor took them back to their own times. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Time and the Rani (TV story)}})
 
Bemoaning the loss of his [[umbrella]] and scarf, the Doctor went back to his wardrobe and obtained a new paisley scarf and whangee-handled umbrella. Taking the time to clean out the [[dimensionally transcendental]] pockets of the Sixth Doctor's patchwork coat, he sat down to sort the contents of several lifetimes, organising them into two piles, of what was useful and what was not. While doing so, he considered the consequences of regeneration, and assessed whether he was going to like his new body. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Useful Pile (short story)}}) He also wrote in [[the Doctor's diary|his diary]] about his regeneration and the Rani. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|First Day of the Doctor (short story)}})
 
=== New adventures with Mel ===

Shortly after he dropped Mel off in [[London]], the Doctor became a prisoner at "[[the Institute]]", and sent the TARDIS back to Mel to save him. After he had been driven insane, the Doctor was found by Mel, who helped him restore his sanity. Informed that the Institute was run by the [[Celestial Intervention Agency]], the Doctor found that medics were conducting experiments to graft TARDIS minds into sentient life forms, and, horrified at their amoral stance, restored the TARDIS consciousnesses to their physical bodies, and freed the inmates. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Unregenerate! (audio story)}})
 
Landing on the [[Needle (Red)|Needle]], the Doctor became affected by the "Red" infection. Investigating why this was happening, he got the attention of the controlling computer [[Whitenoise]]. He realised that the he was being affected because he was a time sensitive and the infection was caused by the editing of [[Celia Fortunaté]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Red (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor took Mel to [[2040]] [[Sussex Downs]] to show her how much human computer technology had advanced from her time. They found a community of mathematicians led by [[Thea (Daisy Chain)|Thea]], who believed that they had discovered the pattern of the TARDIS's landings on Earth and could thus predict the time and place of their arrivals. The Doctor tried to explain that it was just chance, but Thea refused to believe him. Determined to prove them wrong, the Doctor took the TARDIS back in time five weeks, thus spoiling the pattern. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Daisy Chain (short story)}})
 
Visiting the [[Hammerson Plastic PLC]] [[1999]] [[New Year's Eve]] gala, the Doctor revealed to Mel that its owner, [[Alisha Hammerson]], was an advanced [[Auton]] under the control of the [[Nestene Consciousness]]. After her Auton workers gassed the building, the Doctor was awoken by Hammerson, and given a tour of the building. Once he reached the chamber containing the Nestene Consciousness, he distracted the Autons long enough to enable Mel to destroy their link with the nearest Nestene world, thwarting their plans of conquering the Earth. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Plastic Millenium (comic story)}})
 
On a visit to [[Croydon]] on [[24 December]] [[1995]], Mel and the TARDIS disappeared. Investigating, the Doctor found an archaeological dig and met archaeologist [[Michael Gregson]], who told him the history of unusual phenomena attached to the site. Realising that the site was the locale of a [[temporal volcano]], the Doctor went back to 24 December [[1935]], where he rescued Mel and the Gregson family, but was forced to leave Michael behind. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|24 Crawford Street (short story)}})
 
Deciding to visit his friend Reverend [[HT Ellacombe]] in [[1850]] [[England]], the Doctor and Mel discover that his village is being plagued with hoof-like footprints in the snow, which the villagers interpret as being the footprints of [[The Devil]]. It is revealed that the reverend himself is the cause of the footprints, being possessed by an alien surveying the earth for invasion. The Doctor falsifies the alien's report back to its homeland by claiming that the earth was uninhabitable, foiling the alien's plan. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Devil's Footprints (audio story)}})
 
[[File:UNITE!.jpg|left|thumb|The Doctor, Mel and the Kangs. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Paradise Towers (TV story)}})]]
Travelling to [[Paradise Towers]] so Mel could enjoy its [[swimming pool]], the Doctor found that the staff and residents residing within the Towers had all become either anarchist [[Kang]]s, cannibalistic [[Rezzie]]s or pompous [[Caretaker (Paradise Towers)|Caretakers]]. Accused of being the "Great Architect" that built the Towers, the Doctor was nearly killed by the [[Chief Caretaker]], who wanted the Tower to run the way he wanted. The real architect, [[Kroagnon]], a madman who killed anyone who moved into his creations to keep them perfect, was still within the complex, and had been using the [[Cleaner]]s to murder residents. As the Doctor and Mel investigated, Kroagnon became concerned, and transplanted his disembodied mind into the Chief, going on a murderous rampage through the complex. He was defeated when [[Pex]], the only remaining male resident, pushed him to his death down a lift shaft, sacrificing himself to prove his bravery. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Paradise Towers (TV story)}})
 
The Doctor and Mel then travelled to [[Pax Lucis]], an English [[village]] occupied by [[Nazi]]s, during the [[World War II|Second World War]]. When a barrier cut the village off from the rest of the world, the Doctor discovered the Nazis had captured the [[Lightwanderer]], a creature that fed on [[solar radiation]]. The Nazis plotted to create a barrier around the [[Earth]], which would destroy the planet. The Doctor gained an ally in the Nazis' commander, [[Luther (Special Weapons)|Luther]], who sacrificed himself by blowing up "the weapon", saving the planet. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Special Weapons (short story)}})
 
When the TARDIS was forced to materialise in [[1978]] England, the Doctor and Mel traced the cause to an anomalous concentration of [[artron energy]] from a [[Cnidarian]] [[Artefact (The Invertebrates of Doom)|artefact]] discovered in a cave by a group of university students. The artefact summoned [[Commander]] [[Hydra Sowerbii]], who attempted to conquer Earth, but was quickly defeated. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Invertebrates of Doom (short story)}})
 
Arriving in 1987 Britain, the Doctor and Mel were shocked to see a tower in the exact form of a Dalek, serving as the main office of the [[Zenos Corporation]]. As Mel infiltrated the Zenos Corporation, the Doctor learned that the Daleks were working with the corporation's CEO, [[Alek Zenos]], to present themselves to the British government as interested in becoming Britain's economic partners in the galactic market. As part of this plan, the Daleks also introduced a new video game, ''[[Warfleet]]'', which allegedly depicted a space empire pursuing a rebel ship, but actually allowed the players to take control of Dalek drone ships in the future and use them against the Daleks' enemies, subverting the Daleks' handicap of relying on pure logic.
 
The Doctor nearly turned the tables when Mel was able to tell the ''Warfleet'' players what was happening and convince them to help the rebels, as well as the revelation that Alek Zenos was actually a double agent working with [[Thal]] rebels against the Daleks. However, things turned against the Doctor when MP [[Celia Dunthorpe]] allied with the Daleks, believing that the economic benefits of an alliance with the Daleks were more important that the Doctor's warning about how dangerous they were. Although the Daleks almost won by using the Zenos Tower to transmit a Dalek perspective across London, brainwashing even Mel to adhere to a Dalek philosophy, the Doctor was able to cure Mel of the programming and pass on instructions before he was taken to Skaro for trial.
 
Using the Doctor's advice, Mel was able to reprogram the time corridor in Zenos Tower to send the entire tower to Skaro, the continued broadcast of the "[[Dalek Factor]]" causing the Daleks on Skaro to turn on each other as their natural aggression and arrogance was amplified. With the Daleks destroying themselves and the ''Warfleet'' players helping the rebels rescue the Thal slaves on Skaro, the Doctor used the building to trigger a time storm after setting up a time corridor to take himself and his allies back to Earth, the resulting storm causing most Daleks left on the planet to age to death as their parts became too old to operate. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|We Are The Daleks (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor and Mel landed in a mysterious warehouse, where they came across two cults: one about the ordering of goods, and the other about the processes in the warehouse. They discovered an infestation of mould and rat like creatures and that nothing had left the warehouse in years. The Doctor learnt from [[Lydek]] that the mould was an infection and that the warehouse was isolated to protect the stock. He was later offered an umbrella with a question mark handle, to replace the one broken by [[Fred (The Warehouse)|Fred]]'s rat traps. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Warehouse (audio story)}})
 
Responding to a distress call, the Doctor and Mel found themselves in an abandoned human mining colony that had been re-appropriated as a [[Sontaran]] research base, only for the Sontaran research team assigned there to have gone insane, with most of them dead and the surviving commander a gibbering wreck hiding in the cells. When a new Sontaran force was sent to investigate, the Doctor realised that the cause of the mental imbalance was the telepathic influence of a silicon-based life-form in the base's former mines, which identified itself as "[[The Bloom]]", absorbing the emotions of the residents of the facility to allow itself to grow. While the original miners had only been affected by the Bloom after prolonged exposure to it, the Sontarans' experiments at influencing human emotions had given the Bloom far more emotional material to "feed" on, driving the Sontarans and the former prisoners to increasingly irrational actions, such as Sontarans fighting each other and one of the prisoners trying to break a glass observation dome despite the planet's tainted atmosphere.
 
As a result of this emotional "stimuli", the Bloom had achieved sentience at the cost of making it far more hostile due to the Sontarans' violent nature, now manifesting as a dust cloud that consumed the humans and Sontarans to gain their knowledge and experience. Despite acknowledging the Bloom as a sentient creature with a right to exist, the Doctor refused to let it continue in its current state due to the danger it posed to others, tricking the last Sontaran present into carrying bombs directly into the Bloom while he, Mel and the remaining human survivors retreated to the TARDIS, the Doctor hopeful that the explosion would disperse the Bloom to such an extent that it would have to start its "evolution" over again and hopefully become something more peaceful. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Terror of the Sontarans (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor and Mel foiled a [[Vardan]] invasion of Earth with [[Nikola Tesla]] and encountered [[weretarantula]]s on [[Vyga 3]]. They landed on a damaged human ship called ''[[The Duke of Milan]]'' that was trying to reach [[Dido]]. The Doctor helped the ship land on a suitable planet and helped the humans negotiate peace with [[Mogera|the natives of the planet]]. He also discovered an element native to the planet that could provide infinite power and named it [[Doctorium]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Maker of Demons (audio story)}})
 
After escaping the explosion of a sabotaged ship, the Doctor and Mel, impersonating the murdered crew members they had encountered on the ship, found that they had arrived on ''[[Dark Space 8]]'', a space station currently hosting the [[Intergalactic Song Contest]]. Discovering that the song contest was being used as a cover for secret peace talks between [[Golos]] and [[Angvia (planet)|Angvia]], they managed to prevent the terrorist [[Loozly]] from sabotaging the conference, and helped Earth win. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Bang-Bang-a-Boom! (audio story)}})
 
In search of [[leptonite crystal]]s to combat the [[Quark]]s on the [[space yacht]] ''[[Pinto (ship)|Pinto]]'', the Doctor and Mel arrived on the planet [[Puxatornee]] in the year [[3090]], where the inhabitants were struggling to live in peace with a race called the [[Slithergee]]s, who were slowly taking over after they arrived there as refugees thirty years prior. The Doctor and Mel were forced by two inhabitants, [[Stuart (Flip-Flop)|Stuart]] and [[Reed]], to travel back to [[3060]] to kill the [[Bailey (Flip-Flop)|president of Puxatornee]] before she could invite the Slithergees to stay. When they returned from the successful assassination, history had changed so that the Slithergees instead went to war with the Puxatornees. The Doctor and Mel became separated with Stuart and Reed and captured, but realised that an alternative Mel and Doctor were due to land in the same place as them and quickly escaped back to their TARDIS and left.
 
The other Doctor and Mel successfully landed on Puxatornee, and were captured and interrogated by the new history's Lt. Stuart and Reed before the old history's Reed and Stuart arrived to help them escape, but were killed shortly afterwards. The new history's Stuart and Reed then forced the Doctor and Mel to take them back thirty years so that they could prevent the president's death and make peace with Slithergees. The Doctor and Mel took them back to 3060 to see their new history, which was the first version before he and Mel showed up. Lt Stuart and Reed then ordered the Doctor to take them back to the previous day to prevent their earlier selves from time travelling, but the Doctor couldn't as that history no longer existed. The Doctor worked out that an alternative version of himself and Mel were due to land and took off in the TARDIS just as their earlier selves showed up. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Flip-Flop (audio story)}})
 
Winning a free vacation from [[G715]], the Doctor and Mel found themselves part of an alien expedition to experience the [[Earth]]'s "rock 'n' roll years" at [[1959]] [[Disneyland]]. After the tour was detoured to [[South Wales]], the Doctor discovered that the last [[Chimeron]] queen, [[Delta]], was amongst their party, hiding with her newborn from the vicious [[Bannermen]], mercenaries set on genocide. After defeating the Bannermen by causing their leader, [[Gavrok]], to fall into his own trap, he bid goodbye to Delta, her daughter and a [[human]], [[Billy (Delta and the Bannermen)|Billy]], who had fallen in love with Delta, as they departed for the Chimeron hatchery. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Delta and the Bannermen (TV story)}})
 
The Doctor and Mel visited [[Llanfer Ceiriog]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Cat's Cradle: Witch Mark (novel)}}) and met [[Emil Hartung]] in [[1936]] [[Cairo]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Just War (novel)}})
 
Arriving in [[Pompeii]] on [[23 August]] [[79]], the Doctor became convinced that he was destined to live out the rest of his days on Earth when the TARDIS was lost in an earthquake, setting in motion events he had already seen the result of in his [[fifth incarnation]]. Mel, unwilling to give up, managed to locate the TARDIS and prove to the Doctor that the fact that his TARDIS had been found buried in the ruins of the city didn't mean that they were trapped on Earth. Allowing the TARDIS to be buried in ash, the Doctor piloted it to the same spot nearly one-thousand-and-nine-hundred years later, allowing it to be discovered by UNIT and setting in motion the events which had unfolded since their arrival in Pompeii. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Fires of Vulcan (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor and Mel travelled to [[Iceworld]], where they joined [[Sabalom Glitz]] and [[Ace]], a teenage girl from [[1987]] [[Earth]], on a search to find a treasure guarded by the "dragon" living in the caverns. During the search the Doctor ended up dangling over a sheer drop whilst travelling to follow the map to the supposed treasure, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Dragonfire (TV story)}}) unaware he was being watched by an echo of [[Clara Oswald]], ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Name of the Doctor (TV story)}}) until Glitz came to his aid. The group discovered that the dragon was in fact a [[Dragon (biomechanoid)|biomechanoid]] tasked with guarding the [[Dragonfire]], a power source sought by exiled criminal [[Kane (Dragonfire)|Kane]] to power ''Iceworld'', his prison ship, and return to his home planet to get revenge. However, Kane committed suicide when the Doctor showed him his planet no longer existed and that there was no-one for Kane to enact vengeance upon. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Dragonfire (TV story)}})
 
Deducing that Ace had been deposited on Iceworld by his old foe [[Fenric]], ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TV story)}}) and that he could no longer avoid his responsibilities to [[Time (mythology)|Time]], the Doctor planted an idea in Mel's head, encouraging her to stay with Glitz with the intention to put him on the right path, and to urge the Doctor to take Ace with him. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Head Games (novel)}}) His manipulations were successful, and he gained Ace as a new companion, offering to take her back home to [[Perivale]] through "the scenic route". ([[TV]]: {{cs|Dragonfire (TV story)}})
 
=== Early travels with Ace ===

While exploring the TARDIS, Ace came across a locked room containing a window that visualised Gallifrey during the Doctor's childhood, which the Doctor had bought in his [[second incarnation]]. Feeling that it served as nothing more than a reminder of the past, the Doctor set about sealing the room off. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|uPVC (short story)}})
 
The Doctor took Ace back in time to kill a baby destined to grow up into a dictator who would doom the Earth. However, he was unable to go through with the act, and left. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Categorical Imperative (short story)}})
 
After the TARDIS was attacked by a [[Kryian]] missile, the Doctor found his ship was locked onto [[24 December|Christmas Eve]]. After spending Christmas in [[1889]] and [[2023]], he and Ace travelled to Eastern [[Africa]] in [[3181]] to fix the problem, where they helped humanity to recover from an alien invasion and restored their faith in [[Christmas]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Instead of You (short story)}})
 
While observing the [[aurora borealis]] from space, the Doctor and Ace saw a spaceship being shot down by the American Air Defense. Following the spaceship to a [[Macy's]] department store in [[New York City]], the Doctor and Ace found that the ship belonged to a [[Stellogratt]], savage hunters enslaved by the [[K'Rin]] to be used as weapons in their war against the [[Elayyn]], and that the Stellogratt's [[neural inhibitor]] had been damaged. Working with the Macy's overnight staff, the Doctor and Ace were able to overpower the Stellogratt, and then made to return it home in the TARDIS. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Grotto (short story)}})
 
The Doctor and Ace were present in [[London]] during the [[coronation]] of [[Elizabeth II]] on [[2 June]] [[1953]], where the Doctor played chess against orange humanoids from another realm. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Where's the Doctor? (comic story)}})
 
=== Ending the Dalek civil war ===

[[File:Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust.jpg|thumb|"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust." ([[TV]]: {{cs|Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)}})]]
The Doctor returned to [[Shoreditch]] in [[November]] [[1963]] to take care of events he had set in motion during his [[first incarnation]], first by retrieving the [[Hand of Omega]]. His mission was disrupted by the [[Renegade Dalek|Renegade]] and [[Imperial Dalek]]s, despite him anticipating one faction showing up, placing the Doctor, Ace and the [[Intrusion Counter-Measures Group]] in the crossfire of the [[Imperial-Renegade Dalek Civil War]], prompting the Doctor to join forces with Counter Measures leaders, Group Captain [[Ian Gilmore]] and Professor [[Rachel Jensen]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)}})
 
That night, the Doctor was about to investigate [[Matt Doe|someone's]] scream, only to see the [[Time Lord messenger (Genesis of the Daleks)|Time Lord messenger]] who had given him a mission to alter the [[creation of the Daleks]] in his [[Fourth Doctor|fourth life]]. The messenger warned him that the Daleks planned to [[Last Great Time War|wage War]] on the Time Lords and warned him of an Imperial [[Slyther]]. Aware that the Slyther was looking for the Hand of Omega, but that it would only be able to locate traces of its [[chronon signature]], the Doctor used [[Brian Donlevy|the undertaker's]] [[Underpants|long johns]] to lure the creature to a electricity substation, electrocuting its [[Dalekanium]] implants to kill it. After again warning the Doctor of the coming Time War, the Time Lord departed with the remains of the cyborg creature, so the Doctor left ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Slyther of Shoreditch (short story)}}) to [[Harry (Remembrance of the Daleks)|Harry's cafe]] for [[tea]] and to think over his next actions.
 
Discovering that [[Davros]] was now the [[Dalek Emperor]], the Doctor fulfilled his fanatical desire to give the Daleks the power of time travel against them, by goading Davros into using the Hand ([[TV]]: {{cs|Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)}}) on [[Skaro]]'s second sun ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Stranger (short story)}}) to create a new [[Eye of Harmony]], but instead resulted in Skaro's sun going supernova, destroying Skaro, as the Doctor had pre-programmed the stellar manipulator to do. With only the [[Black Dalek Leader|Supreme Dalek]] of the Renegade faction left to deal with, the Doctor managed to convince it that it no longer held a purpose, and it self-destructed. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)}}) After leaving Earth, the Doctor found signs of [[Coal Hill Space-Time Rift|a temporal abnormality]] at the [[Coal Hill School]] of [[2016]], but got distracted before he could further investigate. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|In Remembrance (audio story)}})
 
After being trapped in a [[Temporal Plexus]] for eight days, the Doctor and Ace escaped by exploding a star, but landed on a Skaro where the Daleks were a benevolent species regarded as great philosophers and medics, with even the Time Lords seeking them out for medical aid. Realising that something had changed history on a cosmic scale, the Doctor discovered that he himself had created this new timeline in his escape from the Plexus, just as the alternate universe started to decay. Despite Ace's protests, the Doctor took the TARDIS back into the Plexus, and negated the timeline of the peaceful Daleks by merging with their past selves in their escape from the exploding star. The Doctor then made a quick trip to Skaro to confirm the restoration of the proper timeline. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Ripple Effect (short story)}})
 
=== Ercildoune ===
After leaving Ace with his old friend [[Naikosiai]] in [[1926]] [[Africa]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Prelude Birthright (short story)}}) the Doctor took up residence at [[Ercildoune]] in Scotland during the [[13th century]], using it as a base from which to set out on various travels for roughly two years.
 
The Doctor visited [[1909]] [[London]], and saved [[Barbara Wright]]'s grandfather, [[Ernie Wright|Ernie]], from being arrested for a murder he did not commit. He then travelled to [[Soho]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Birthright (novel)}}) to visit [[Margaret Waterfield]] at [[39 Dean Street]] and warn her of [[Bernice Summerfield]]'s imminent arrival. Next, he visited [[Coutts Bank]] in [[1868]] London with [[Victoria Waterfield]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Prelude Birthright (short story)}}) He also arranged for flowers to be sent to Margaret's funeral on his behalf. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Birthright (novel)}})
 
When the [[Fourth Doctor]] used his [[TARDIS tuner]] to begin a [[temporal meta-collision]] with his other incarnations, the Seventh Doctor learnt that Earth was under threat from a [[Pandimensional entity (Doctors Assemble!)|pandimensional entity]] that had trapped his fourth incarnation in his TARDIS. While the Seventh Doctor argued with his other incarnations, the [[War Doctor]] used encoded messages from the [[Sixth Doctor]] to stop the invasion before it began, and the Sixth Doctor installed a way to expel the entity from the Fourth Doctor's TARDIS. With the crisis over, the Seventh Doctor went off to thwart "[[evil]]". ([[WC]]: {{cs|Doctors Assemble! (webcast)}})
 
The Doctor visited the court of [[Elizabeth I]], and persuaded her to send [[Jared Khan]] on a fool's errand, spent five years teaching [[Mikhail Popov]] English in [[St Petersburg]] so that he could help Bernice in London, and arranged for [[Herbert Asquith]] to have Bernice released from [[Holloway Prison]].
 
When [[Queen]] [[Ch'tizz]] of the [[Charrl]] arrived at Ercildoune looking for the TARDIS, the Doctor left Scotland permanently, but not before asking Jared Khan to travel through the glen and advising him to "follow the bonny bonny road should anyone give [him] the choice". ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Birthright (novel)}}) The Doctor then collected Ace from Africa, with only a few hours having passed for her. With the "pieces all in place", the Doctor set course for [[Terra Alpha]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Prelude Birthright (short story)}})

On [[Terra Alpha]], where citizens were being executed by the [[Kandyman]] if they did not follow [[Helen A]]'s happy dictatorship, the Doctor arranged the death of her beloved pet [[Stigorax]] to show Helen A that true happiness could only exist if balanced with negative emotions like sadness. Leaving citizen [[Daisy K]] and visiting [[Blues]] musician [[Trevor Sigma]] to help restore order to Terra Alpha, the Doctor and Ace departed. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Happiness Patrol (TV story)}})
 
[[File:SevenLeftLookingSN.jpg|thumb|left|The Doctor looking for Cybermen around [[Windsor Castle]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Silver Nemesis (TV story)}})]]
Arriving in [[20th century]] [[Windsor]], the Doctor found the [[Nemesis]] statue, which he sent off into space every twenty five years, had returned. Deciding to end the chaos it caused, the Doctor intended to find its bow and arrow for his plan to be rid of it for good. During his search, he encountered Lady [[Peinforte]] and the [[Cyberman|Cybermen]]. Taking a trip back in time to see how Lady Peinforte got to the future, the Doctor discovered a chess board in her study, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Silver Nemesis (TV story)}}) and realised that Fenric was responsible. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TV story)}}) Pretending to comply with the [[Cyber-Leader (Mondas)|Cyber-Leader]]'s orders, the Doctor prepared to send the Nemesis statue straight into the Cyberfleet, prompting Peinforte to merge with it, before launching it into space, where it exploded, destroying the Cyberships. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Silver Nemesis (TV story)}})
 
While travelling in the TARDIS, the Doctor received "junk mail" advertising the [[Psychic Circus]]. Deciding to attend after Ace admitted to her [[Coulrophobia|fear of clowns]], the pair discovered that the circus had been taken over by the [[Gods of Ragnarok]], who were forcing the patrons to perform for them until they were no longer amusing and killed. The Doctor took the fight to their home dimension, where he performed for them. Once he ran out of tricks, he used a [[medallion]] to reflect the Gods' blast back at them, destroying them. Their business concluded, the duo departed, leaving the sole-surviving troupe member, [[Kingpin]], and the werewolf-like [[Mags (The Greatest Show in the Galaxy)|Mags]] to rebuild the Psychic Circus. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Greatest Show in the Galaxy (TV story)}})
 
Whilst holidaying by the seaside, the Doctor and Ace met a fortune-teller called [[Hiram White]], who was seemingly able to see the future. Sceptical, the Doctor discovered that he was actually a psychic alien from the planet [[Cramand]]'s moon, [[Candram]], who had developed an addiction to fake health pills. The Doctor offered to return Hiram home, but he declined, instead seeking help to travel back in time to acquire more pills to state his addiction. The Doctor respected Hiram's decision and left him, allowing him to choose his own fate. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|One Card for the Curious (short story)}})
 
After discovering that a Time Lord had given a Gallifreyan virus to the [[Stryke]]s in the war of [[Agrovan Seven]] against the [[Marat (organisation)|Marats]], the Doctor and Ace went to deliver an antidote to the plague. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Forgotten (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor and Ace meet struggling artist [[Nathan Gough]] in [[1887]] London, and learnt that an abstract painting of his late mother had caused a weak point in the space-time vortex, allowing extra-dimensional creatures to gain a foothold in reality by taking over Nathan's mind. When the creatures refused to stop their invasion of reality at the Doctor's request, he trapped them in the "dark recesses of [his] mind". ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Living Image (short story)}})
 
The Doctor and Ace visited [[Bob Dovie]] at [[59A Barnsfield Crescent]] in [[Totton]], [[Hampshire]] on 23 November 1963, ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Light at the End (audio story)}}) and the Doctor later attended a private Christmas party hosted by his [[first incarnation]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Feast of Seven... Eight and Nine (short story)}})
 
The Doctor and Ace arrived on the ''[[Obscura]]'' and worked to help the ship escape an oncoming shockwave from a nearby dying star. Eventually the ship's captain, [[OhOne]], devised a plan to ensure the ship's escape at the cost of his own life, however Ace discovered a [[hypercube]] from a [[Eleventh Doctor|future Doctor]] instructing his past self to save OhOne. The Doctor helped a volunteer, [[NineJay]], use a transmat to take OhOne's place. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Shockwave (DotD audio story)}})
 
Having traced something wrong with the Starfire project, the Doctor ensconced himself in the local politics as a member of parliament, John Rutherford, on an anti-nuclear ground. He employed his old acquaintance [[Ian Gilmore]] to help in his investigations, and had Ace be a maid for [[Amanda Caulfield]]. He discovered that [[The Light (1963: The Assassination Games)|the Light]] had been present on the planet for centuries and planned to use the Starfire weapons to destroy America to put the UK back on top as that was why the species invaded the UK in the first place. After defeating the Light, the Doctor was worried that they would try again. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|1963: The Assassination Games (audio story)}})
 
=== Temporary companions ===
[[File: A Cold Day in Hell!.jpg|thumb|right|The Doctor and [[Frobisher]] face [[Ice Warrior]]s on [[A-Lux]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|A Cold Day in Hell! (comic story)}})]]
After leaving Ace in the Cretaceous period, ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Train-Flight (comic story)}}) the Doctor was travelling with [[Frobisher]] when he prevented an [[Ice Warrior]] plot on the planet [[A-Lux]], where he bid Frobisher a final adieu. The Doctor then departed with a new friend, [[Olla]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|A Cold Day in Hell! (comic story)}}) However, the Doctor discovered that Olla was actually a fugitive from the law, and handed her over to the authorities when they forcibly entered his TARDIS looking for her. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Redemption! (comic story)}})
 
[[The Monk]] ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Secret History (audio story)}}) placed the Doctor back into his personal time stream, taking the place of his third incarnation in his UNIT lab where he encountered [[Jo Grant]] shortly before being taken to [[Delphin Isle]]. He got worried when [[Cornelius (The Defectors)|Cornelius]] used [[the Forge]]'s catchphrase. The Doctor and Jo were forced to stay in the local pub whose patrons acted strangely. They later found all the patrons drowned in sea. The Doctor interrogated [[Wingford]] about his lack of compassion about the deaths of the people on the isle, as all Wingford was concerned with was fixing an old soviet plane. He realised that the plane was actually an alien spaceship and found out it belonged to the [[Europan]]s when he met their [[Europan leader|leader]]. After questioning the Europans to why they were there, the Doctor decided to allow them to have power from his TARDIS but Jo stopped this. Once [[Mike Yates]] arrived and killed the Europans, the Doctor went back to his own part of timeline. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Defectors (audio story)}})
 
=== Solo adventures ===
The Doctor's TARDIS collided with [[Death's Head]], a mechanoid bounty hunter from another dimension. The Doctor used a [[TCE]] to reduce Death's Head's size, and then sent him to Earth in the [[82nd century]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Crossroads of Time (comic story)}}) The Doctor then visited [[London]] in [[1851]], where he met scientist [[Nathaniel Derridge]] and stopped the [[Klathi]] from destroying the city. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Claws of the Klathi! (comic story)}})
 
On one planet, the Doctor was telepathically contacted by a sentient [[cell culture]] called [[the Culture]], which was under attack from a [[Virus (Culture Shock)|virus]]. The Doctor used [[maxenshudicea]] to cure the infection. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Culture Shock! (comic story)}}) The Doctor answered a distress call from [[Ryos]], but ran afoul of the [[Ryosian|natives]]. He was rescued by the salvage merchant [[Keepsake]], and together they rescued the stranded [[Bahlia|medic]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Keepsake (comic story)}})
 
On the dead planet [[Adeki]], the Doctor encountered what appeared to be his deceased companions [[Adric]], [[Peri Brown]], [[Jamie McCrimmon]], [[Katarina]] and [[Sara Kingdom]], but were actually shapeshifting [[Gwanzulum]]. He escaped with the aid of what appeared to be his past six incarnations, but they were shapeshifters as well. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Planet of the Dead (comic story)}}) The Doctor followed a psychic scream to the planet [[Tya]], where he helped the native [[Tyan]]s evolve into new beings. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Scream of the Silent (short story)}})
 
Aiming for the ''[[Maruthea]]'' to attend [[Bonjaxx|a friend's]] birthday party, the Doctor instead found himself on [[Mekrom]], where he discovered a dead body and encountered a [[Foreign Hazard Duty]] team who had been summoned by the now dead crew of the abandoned base. Discovering that terrifying creatures known as the [[Mogor]] were stalking the base, the Doctor deduced that they were in fact "echoes", recorded on a form of crystal found on the planet. Proving his hypothesis, the Doctor bid goodbye to the team and set off to find Maruthea. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Echoes of the Mogor! (comic story)}})
 
Arriving instead on [[Tojana]], the Doctor discovered that the native race of violent and suicidal lizards was preparing a last supper for their kind before their planet was completely submerged. As the natives had become resigned to their fate, and were callously killing each other before the end, the Doctor managed to convince the one concerned lizard that it could find a way of surviving. While all the rest of the natives indulged in the slaughter of one another, the Doctor and "the [[Worrier]]" constructed a [[raft]], which they used to survive the waves which engulfed the land. Bidding the Worrier a goodbye and good fortune, the Doctor left the planet. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Time and Tide (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor arrived on [[Earth]] sometime in the [[21st century]] to confront the [[First Monk]], who was again planning to interfere in history, but he escaped. The [[Sleeze Brothers]], who had crashed their [[hovercar]] into [[the Monk's TARDIS]] and demanded payment for the damages, forced the Doctor to follow the Monk. They chased him to [[Tunguska]] in [[1908]], the [[RMS Titanic|RMS ''Titanic'']] in [[1912]], and [[Bermuda]] in [[1945]], where they finally caught him. After narrowly escaping the implosion of the Monk's TARDIS, which caused [[Flight 19]] to disappear, the Doctor returned the Brothers to their own time and kicked them out, angry at the damage they had caused to history. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Follow That TARDIS! (comic story)}})
 
Once again missing Maruthea, the Doctor instead found himself in [[1992]] London, and became caught up in a [[Gantac]] invasion of Earth. Teaming up with a homeless man named [[Leapy]], the Doctor defeated the [[Gantacian]]s' leader, the Great [[Yaga]], and, in doing so, the rest of the Gantacian race, before departing. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Invaders from Gantac! (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor was playing a [[jester]] in a [[Brighton]] [[pantomime]] when [[Death's Head]] appeared, having been hired by [[Josiah W. Dogbolter]] to kill him. The Doctor escaped to his TARDIS, but Death's Head followed him using the [[Dogbolter Temporal Rocket]]. The Doctor discovered that a [[nuclear bomb]] was hidden inside the Rocket, and Death's Head realised that Dogbolter had betrayed him. After freeing Death's Head from the Rocket, the Doctor warned him that his inability to change meant that he was doomed, ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Time Bomb! (comic story)}}) and left him to the roof of the [[Four Freedoms Plaza]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Time Bomb! (comic story)}}, {{cs|Clobberin' Time! (comic story)}}, {{cs|The Incomplete Death's Head (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor tried to reach Maruthea again, but instead arrived in a flat on [[Archimedes (planet)|Archimedes]]. While trying to find out where he was, he was discovered by the flat's occupant, a journalist named [[Huksley]], who assumed he was an agent sent by [[UniMedia]] to help her. She told him about her discovery of a link between the [[Fountain Programme]] and a number of strange deaths on the colony. The Doctor recognised the drug's formula as that of [[Chronex]], which had been developed by the [[Hysk]], and had her take him to the [[Fountain Corporation]]'s headquarters, where he helped her expose the truth: her story was a hoax manufactured by UniMedia to increase their ratings. The Doctor left after Huksley told him of her intent to write an exposé on UniMedia instead. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Infinity Season (short story)}})
 
While walking around [[Westminster Abbey]], the Doctor was attacked by [[time fly|time flies]], but was saved by his [[twelfth incarnation]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|A Stitch in Time (CC comic story)}})
 
[[File:Doctors NOTD.jpg|thumb|left|The Doctor being interrogated by the Daleks. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Nemesis of the Daleks (comic story)}})]]
The Doctor tried to reach Maruthea again, but instead arrived on [[Hell (planet)|Hell]], where he discovered the crashed ''[[Kill-Wagon]]'' and the bodies of [[Salander (Star Tigers)|Salander]], [[Vol Mercurius]] and [[Harma]]. He was rescued from the [[Dalek]]s by [[Abslom Daak]], and together they learned that the Daleks had enslaved the native [[Helkan]]s to mine [[helkogen]]. The Doctor and Daak were taken aboard the Daleks' [[Death Wheel]], where Daak prevented the Doctor from sacrificing himself to destroy the ship. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Nemesis of the Daleks (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor visited the [[Chardaz Museum of Modern Art]] and discovered genetic sculptor [[Garg Ardoniquist]]'s latest work, the [[Stairway to Heaven]], where genetically engineered creatures kept building his stairway, only for each to fall to their death after placing their brick. The Doctor saved one of the creatures and condemned Garg, who subsequently fell to his death when the creature tried to unite with its creator and inadvertently pushed him through an open hatch. The Doctor made a hasty retreat, even as the crowds praised Garg's death as part of his art. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Stairway to Heaven (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor went to a park in [[Solar City]] on [[Galactica Minor]], where he was accosted by [[Miff]], a reporter for the ''[[Universal Herald]]''. Annoyed by his persistent questions, the Doctor took Miff to the [[Metebelis Bar]], where the patrons attacked him when he claimed to be the Doctor's friend. They pursued him into the TARDIS, where the Doctor took him twenty years into the future, ten years after the ''Herald'' went out of business, and left him there. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Once in a Lifetime (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor decided to visit [[Catalog]], and learned that the planet's librarians had recently started storing their collection in time rather than in space, only to find that it had become infested with "[[bookworm]]s". The Doctor worked with the [[Foreign Hazard Duty]] and discovered that the creatures were "agents of chaos" from the [[Big Bang]] and the [[end of the universe]]. The Doctor prevented the worms from undoing the fabric of the [[Web of Time]] by returning the library's collection to real space. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Hunger from the Ends of Time! (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor arrived on [[Bellus IV]] during a war between humans and robots. A human commander, [[Deldran]], took him to the human headquarters. There, he finished a device which would turn off the robots and activated it, only to find that that the "humans" were also robots. Before he powered down for good, Deldran explained that the humans had died "ages" before, leaving the war running by robot proxy, and said that the robots wouldn't have known what to do with peace. The Doctor echoed the sentiment, wondering if anyone was really built for peace. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|War World! (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor materialised on board the ''[[Da Gama]]'', a deep space probe. He discovered that its commander, [[Admiral]] [[Vayle]], was being fed a perpetual hallucination to help him survive the boredom of a long space flight. However, the programming had gone wrong and there were no other people in the dreams Vayle was having. The Doctor told the ship's computer that Vayle was being driven mad by the lack of companionship. The computer thanked the Doctor for pointing out the "technical hitch", and Vayle's world was soon re-populated. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Technical Hitch (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor materialised inside a television programme on a world populated by non-humanoids, where he was mistaken for a character called "the Professor" by two other characters, the [[Gherax]] and [[Thyron]], who believed that he had merely forgotten his script. He escaped before he got into any real trouble for it. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|A Switch in Time! (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor was summoned to a primitive-looking world by [[Seneschal]], an ancient being who claimed to have been responsible for human evolution itself. When the Doctor accused him of meddling, he became angry and chased him back to the TARDIS. After departing, the Doctor discovered too late that Seneschal had taken a sample of his own DNA, which he could use to create a new race of Time Lords. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Sentinel!

The Doctor was on his way to [[Okul]] to adjudicate the peace conference being held there, but was captured by [[Kasgi]], an assassin paid by [[Ux (Who's That Girl!)|Ux]] to impersonate the Doctor and kill the [[Frovian]] Prince [[Luj]]. After learning that Luj was secretly planning to conquer the [[Kollian Dimension]], the Doctor escaped and informed the delegates that the Time Lords had withdrawn their support for the Frovians, which prevented Luj's death, but cost him his friendship.

The Doctor arrived on [[Tora]], where he encountered [[Ly-Chee]], a holy man. He unceremoniously ended Ly-Chee's lifelong work on finding the [[Holy Number of Nirvana]], which turned out to be 7. To make up for this, the Doctor told Ly-Chee a riddle, but again he failed to realise that it had an incredibly simple answer. Feeling guilty at having ruined Ly-Chee's life, the Doctor offered him a lift to town in the TARDIS, and the two travelled together for many adventures before finally arriving at the town to which Ly-Chee had originally wanted to go. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Enlightenment of Ly-Chee the Wise (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor went to [[Weight-A-Way]], a health club located at the edge of the galaxy, to investigate the disappearance of several guests. He discovered that they had been eaten by the [[Gromungus]], the universe's biggest glutton, who now desired to eat the Doctor. Instead, he linked his TARDIS to Gromungus' feeding pit so that he could provide him with delicacies from across space and time, causing the giant to eat so much that he turned into a black hole. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Slimmer! (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor arrived on [[Nineveh]], which he found to be a junkyard of old [[TARDIS]]es. He encountered the [[Watcher of Nineveh]], who nearly killed him before discovering that the Doctor was only in his seventh incarnation, and it was therefore not yet his time to die. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Nineveh! (comic story)}})
 
While most accounts claimed that the [[First Doctor]] took the [[Hand of Omega]] with him when he left [[Gallifrey]], ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Time & Time Again (comic story)}}; [[PROSE]]: {{cs|Lungbarrow (novel)}}) one source showed that the Seventh Doctor provided it to him. Meeting his first incarnation whilst he was in [[Shoreditch]] in [[1963]], the Seventh Doctor revealed that he had brought the Hand, and, claiming that the Hand knew what to do, left without revealing any details of his life to the bewildered First Doctor.

However, he was then caught in a [[Drudger]] attack aiming to assassinate Sancroff, but the Doctor repelled the assassins with the planetary shields. He was then taken to [[Gallifrey]] by the [[Temperon]] to meet with his [[Fifth Doctor|fifth]] and [[Sixth Doctor|sixth incarnations]]. Learning that Elenya was one of the [[Sirens of Time]], the Doctors were almost tricked into undoing their altercations to history, but they instead released the Temperon from the Knights of Velyshaa so that it could trap the Sirens of Time in an eternal struggle. With the Sirens of Time's manipulations to history averted, the Seventh Doctor returned his fifth and sixth incarnations to their proper places in time. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Sirens of Time (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor trapped a "[[Creature (Separation)|thing]]" that fed on conflict and left its spores among the residents of [[Buildworth domicile block|Buildworth]].

Shortly after meeting for [[tea]] with some of his other incarnations in the [[Under Gallery]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Day of the Doctor (novelisation)}}) he lost all memory of the events due to the timelines not being synchronised, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Day of the Doctor (TV story)}}) only recalling that the TARDIS was running through calculations for a time when "all thirteen of [him] teamed up to save [[Gallifrey]]". ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Cold Fusion (audio story)}})
 
Arriving on [[the Blood Bank]], the Doctor met [[Zanzibar Hashtag]], and was horrified by her era's trend of deliberately being infected by viruses. They discovered [[Sycorax]] were infiltrating the Bank to use it's blood to take [[Blood control|control]] of the human race. He and Zanzibar managed to trick them into using the blood of wounded Sycorax guardsman instead, placing all of their forces under hynopsis which enabled the Doctor to peacefully teleport them back to their ships. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Harvest of the Sycorax (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor visited [[Sarah Jane Smith]] and offered to take her to the opera, which she reluctantly accepted providing they went by train not in the TARDIS.

Tracing a signal being broadcast from another universe, the Doctor was reunited with [[the Brigadier]] as he joined forces with [[UNIT]]. Becoming embroiled in an adventure involving the inhabitants of an alternate Earth who mistook him for [[Merlin]], the Doctor discovered that the sorceress [[Morgaine]] was waiting for a final battle with [[King Arthur]]. After the Brigadier defeated [[the Destroyer]], the Doctor realised that Arthur was dead, and, informing Morgaine, prevented her from firing a nuclear missile by appealing to her sense of honour. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Battlefield (TV story)}})
 
After learning of Ace's guilt over burning down a "haunted" mansion called [[Gabriel Chase]], the Doctor brought her to the house a hundred years prior to its destruction. There, they found a menagerie of strange creatures, including a dangerously mentally unstable entity called [[Light (Ghost Light)|Light]]. Light had slept for millennia, and, upon discovering that Earth's inhabitants had evolved while it had been in hibernation, rendering the exhaustive catalogue it had compiled centuries earlier worthless, planned to destroy the planet, ending its constant change forever. Able to use Light's childish logic against it, the Doctor convinced it to destroy itself, as it was constantly evolving as well. The Doctor then explained to Ace that the reason she burned down the mansion was because of the residual presence of Light, ending her guilt. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Ghost Light (TV story)}})
 
Landing in a military base in [[1943]], the Doctor accidentally caused Ace to meet and interact with her grandmother and infant mother. After revealing to her that that he knew her arrival on Iceworld and Peinforte's time travelling had been arranged by Fenric, an evil entity he encountered before and trapped in another dimension, the Doctor discovered that it had managed to manipulate those who had come into contact with the flask which contained it, and witnessed its escape. Plagued by a horde of [[Haemovore]]s it set loose on the base, the pair discovered that the creatures were repelled by faith, and managed to engage Fenric in a final contest. Convincing the [[Ancient One]], one of Fenric's Haemovore servants, to kill his host in revenge for trying to trick it into creating its own apocalyptic future, the Doctor was forced to break Ace's faith in him in order to allow it access to Fenric. Revealing this to her, the Doctor regained her trust. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TV story)}})

After a week of visiting places away from Earth, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Survival (novelisation)}}) the Doctor decided to take Ace back home to Perivale. They found that people had been disappearing, and strange, cat-like creatures called [[Kitling]]s were on the prowl. The Doctor soon discovered that {{Ainley}} was trapped on the [[Cheetah World]], and had become infected with the [[Cheetah virus]]. Planning to escape by bringing people there, allowing them to partially change into [[Cheetah People]] and then using them to travel back to Earth, the Master kidnapped Ace and many of her old friends. After saving Ace and her friends, the Doctor fought with the Master, but refused to continue when he saw that the destruction of the Cheetah World had begun. He managed to return to Earth, seemingly leaving the Master trapped on the exploding planet, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Survival (TV story)}}) only to find him in the TARDIS when he returned there with Ace. The Master had removed the ship's [[Identity Recognition Module]], allowing the Master to pilot it himself; he set coordinates of his own, confident that the Doctor couldn't find a spare module in time to stop the TARDIS landing there.

As her transformation completed, the Doctor materialised the TARDIS around her, cutting off her Skeeth infection. Knowing that if she left the TARDIS her Skeeth-self would return, he built a cottage in the woodlands of the TARDIS, allowing her to spend the rest of her life peacefully inside his spaceship.

The Doctor helped to open a water rift above Epajaenda, making it a habitable planet. However, their plan was opposed by a swarm of deadly rats, led by a [[Rat King]] and a [[Rat Emperor]]. At the last moment, Cuthbertson rescinded the dumping and honoured the terms of his contract with the Travellers, sacrificing his life to close the rift. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Last Rites (short story)}})
 
The Doctor took Ace to [[Moscow]] and London in [[1967]], as part of a test to asses her potential to attend the [[Time Lord Academy]], a test that involved the [[Ice Lord]] [[Hhessh]] and his quest to resurrect the legendary Martian warlord [[Sezhyr]]. Ultimately, however, she declined the academic opportunity and continued to travel with the Doctor. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Thin Ice (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor spent an undisclosed time visiting a young girl named [[Raine Creevy]], who he had delivered in 1967, before travelling to her future. In [[1989]], she was now a skilled thief who he recruited to steal a sword for him while he sent Ace to Russia on a secret mission. He plotted to use the sword to ward off an alien incursion by a race called the [[Metatraxi]].

The Doctor and Ace fought [[the Valeyard]] in Victorian England, where he had been posing as [[Jack the Ripper]] to feed the [[Dark Matrix]] with the energies of the women he killed. The Valeyard launched an attack on all of the Doctor's lives, but the Seventh Doctor managed to shield himself, at the cost of his memories. Reduced to an amnesiac cardsharp called "Johnny", the Doctor managed to regain his memory, and convinced the Dark Matrix that the Valeyard was using it. Confronting him, the Dark Matrix apparently killed the Valeyard with a blast of energy. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Matrix (novel)}})
 
Travelling to [[Kar-Charrat]] to return some overdue library books, the Doctor reunited with his old friend, [[Elgin (The Genocide Machine)|Elgin]], who proclaimed to have warded off some Dalek attacks. However, the Daleks had never left, and had used time corridor technology to deploy hidden Dalek pods on every planet in the sector to wait for a time-sensitive to revive them. After a [[Dalek duplicate|duplicate]] of a captured Ace infiltrated the base and successfully downloaded the collective knowledge of the entire universe into a Dalek test subject, who went out of control, the Doctor ventured on to the planet's surface, and discovered that the famous Kar-Charrat ziggurat was a Dalek pod. The Doctor was then forced to surrender to the Daleks to ensure Ace's safety, and was connected to the [[Wetwork]]s so his mind could be used to process the data. While he appeared to be killed in the process to the Daleks, the Doctor's mind was absorbed into the Wetworks, where he made contact with the [[Kar-Charratan]]s, natives enslaved by Elgin in order to enable the Wetworks to function, and promised to set them free.
 
Aided by the Kar-Charratans, the Doctor escaped the Daleks with Ace, Elgin, [[Bev Tarrant]], and [[Prink]], but they were intercepted by the duplicate Ace, who threatened to kill Elgin, but was destroyed by Prink's sacrifice. With Ace pretending to be her own duplicate to get past the Daleks, the Doctor proceeded to the Wetworks with the intention of destroying it. At the facility, the Doctor witnessed the Dalek test subject and the [[Dalek Supreme (The Genocide Machine)|Dalek Supreme]] arguing, due to the test subject having obtained a conscience and refusing to obey the Dalek Supreme's order to destroy the facility. Leaving after deeming their mission a failure, the Supreme Dalek left the [[Special Weapons Dalek]] to kill the test subject, but the facility was destroyed by Ace's [[Nitro-9]] before it could, the explosion also freeing the Kar-Charratans. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Genocide Machine (audio story)}})
 
The TARDIS detected a [[Time distortion|temporal distortion]] on [[Earth]], which threatened to merge the [[1960s]] and the [[1970s]] and generate a [[black hole]]. To find its cause, the Doctor dropped Ace in the 1960s with a tracking device and sent her to make contact with [[Counter-Measures]], while he himself would do the same thing a decade later; he would keep in contact with Ace thanks to the Counter-Measures' team progressively remembering what happened ten years earlier. The two teams, in their respective times, tracked down the source of the distortion back to [[Kazan]] and his [[Rocket Men]]'s hideout, and saw that the cause was "Puncheon", a survivor of a failed experiment in [[time travel]] who had been split in two and dispersed through time. With the help of [[Ian Gilmore]], the Doctor managed to travel back to the 1960s, save Ace from what could have been a fatal fall and reunite the two parts of "Puncheon", thus putting and end to the distortion.

[[File:Virgin New Adventures TARDIS control room.jpg|thumb|left|Ace and the Doctor in the TARDIS, preparing to land in Mesopotamia. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The New Adventures Prologue (short story)}})]]
Receiving a warning from his [[fourth incarnation]] about a Time Lord demon called the [[Timewyrm]], the Doctor and Ace traced a time anomaly to the kingdom of [[Uruk]] in Ancient [[Mesopotamia]], where they joined an expedition, led by [[Gilgamesh]], to a kingdom called [[Kish]]. The Doctor was kidnapped by followers of Ishtar, the "goddess of Love and War", but was saved by Ace. Having learnt that Ishtar, in reality a stranded alien named Qataka, planned to influence the world using radio transmitters, the Doctor sent Ace off to investigate [[Utnapishtim]], before entering her inner sanctum.
 
Captured by Ishtar, she attempted to steal his mind in order to gain the knowledge of time travel. After Kish was attacked by a city-like spaceship operated by Ace and her Uruk allies, the Doctor tricked Ishtar into infecting herself with a computer virus. She survived, infiltrating his TARDIS and torturing his mind. The Doctor trapped her in the secondary control room and jettisoned it into the time vortex. After uniting Kish and Uruk, the Doctor was horrified to discover that Ishtar had survived and was now a living time machine known as the [[Timewyrm]]. Realising her powers could destroy time completely, the Doctor set off on a mission to destroy her. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Timewyrm: Genesys (novel)}})
 
In pursuit of the Timewyrm, the Doctor piloted the TARDIS to a divergent version of [[1950]]s Earth from a timeline where the Nazis had won World War II and were now rulers of the whole planet, but he and Ace were accused of being resistance fighters and arrested by [[Anthony Rupert Hemmings]]. Escaping imprisonment, and with the TARDIS in the possession of [[Adolf Hitler]], the Doctor witnessed the murder of a Reichsinspektor General and the planting of an incriminating package on him before he died. Posing as the General, the Doctor began working with General [[Otto Strasser]] in order to gather information on the new timeline, but Hemmings exposed both his and Ace's true identities.
 
Escaping in the TARDIS, the Doctor travelled to [[1926]] and gained Hitler's trust by giving him the faith to begin World War II. Skipping forward in time, he arrived in 1936, where he was hailed by the Nazis and Hitler as a "hero", becoming his personal advisor. Realising the Timewyrm was controlling Hitler's mind to change history, the Doctor visited him at points when the Nazis invaded various countries across the world. However, he discovered his old enemy, [[the War Chief]], was amongst Hitler's closest allies. The Doctor stopped the War Chief's plots of stealing his remaining regenerations, killing Ace as a human sacrifice and building a Nazi army to conquer the galaxy. Finally, after destroying the War Chief and his new "War Lords," the Doctor visited Hitler in [[1940]] and drove the Timewyrm out of his body, banishing her into the time vortex. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Timewyrm: Exodus (novel)}})
 
After defeating her on [[Kirith]] in the far future, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Timewyrm: Apocalypse (novel)}}) the Doctor entered into a final battle with the Timewyrm within his own mind. Successfully banishing the Timewyrm's power into dormancy and erasing its memories, he saved its "essence" and implanted it in the mind of a genetically-engineered infant who had previously had no upper brain functions. He gave the baby to [[Emily Hutchings|Emily]] and [[Peter Hutchings]] in [[Cheldon Bonniface]], and asked that they name her Ishtar. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Timewyrm: Revelation (novel)}})
 
Returning to the hospitalised Ethan Amberglass, the Doctor entered his dreams and built him a mindscape to explore during his last year of life in a coma. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Algebra of Ice (novel)}})

[[File: Distractions.jpg|thumb|right|The Doctor revisits the TARDIS's Secondary Control Room. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Distractions (comic story)}})]]
Becoming increasingly concerned about the multitude of alien beings which had recently been drawn to Earth and the TARDIS's own limited scope of travel of late, the Doctor began to suspect that the [[Mandragora Helix]] had survived within the TARDIS, and shared his suspicions with Ace. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Distractions (comic story)}}) Discovering that the TARDIS was physically linked to Earth, he uncovered a plot involving a drug being sold in nightclubs named [[Mandrake]], which the Helix was using to possess users. Defeating the Helix, the Doctor believed he had seen the last of his TARDIS, but was reunited with it just as the Brigadier returned to England to greet him.

The Doctor and Ace finally managed to arrive at ''[[Maruthea]]'' for [[Bonjaxx]]'s birthday party, where the Doctor met [[Fred|a future incarnation of himself]] and his companion, [[Ria (Party Animals)|Ria]]. When [[Beep]] the [[Meep]] caused a fight to break out, the Doctors thought it best to excuse themselves and went their separate ways. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Party Animals (comic story)}})


[[File:Sylvester-mccoy-bobbie-langford-doctor-who-431x300.jpg|thumb|160px|The new Doctor and Mel ([[DW]]: ''[[Time and the Rani]]'')]]Perhaps because of this, this regeneration was followed by a usual period of post-regenerative trauma, which resulted in a somewhat chaotic, almost comic personality emerging. He also suffered amnesia, which caused the Doctor to briefly mistake the Rani for his companion, [[Melanie Bush|Mel]].
Drawn to a newspaper report regarding a disappearance, the Doctor brought Ace to a [[beach]] in [[Blackpool]], where he defeated an [[Ogri]] that had been reduced to sand, which had been using the form of a skeleton to kill sailors since the [[19th century]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Seaside Rendezvous (comic story)}})


While still under the Rani's influence, the Doctor chose a new look for his persona, shedding the chaotic, clown-like attire of his predecessor for a more subtle suit and hat, noting to the Rani that his new incarnation had regained a sense of haute couture. It was not known if the Rani actually had any influence on the Doctor's new look, but she agreed with his decision. ([[DW]]: ''[[Time and the Rani]]'')
Visiting the planet [[Sorsha]], the Doctor and Ace became involved in the efforts of a group of [[Marine]]s towards making use of ancient [[Lom]] technology. After one of the Marines accidentally reactivated "[[the Grief]]", an ancient Lom progenitor device, the visitors were forced to enter into combat against a rapidly multiplying army. Reactivating the planetary shield created by the [[Sorshan]]s, the team's scientist, [[Skrane]], released the Sorshan toxin which had wiped out the Lom thousands of years earlier, giving the Doctor and Ace just enough time to escape. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Grief (comic story)}})


=== Travels with Mel ===
=== Beginnings as Time's champion ===
After regaining his memory, the Doctor found the Rani had forced his TARDIS to crash-land in order to gain his unwilling assistance in repairing her "time brain" invention and be part of its components along with fellow brilliant minds such as [[Albert Einstein]]. However, thanks to the Doctor's new persona, the Rani's machine backfired and the Doctor saved the geniuses while trapping the Rani in her TARDIS. ([[DW]]: ''[[Time and the Rani]]'')

Shortly after leaving [[Lakertya]], the Doctor dropped Mel off to investigate a strange institute where Time Lords, specifically the CIA were experimenting on humans, trying to graft TARDIS minds into their bodies. He was electrocuted and went insane. Fortunately, he had programmed the TARDIS to collect Mel and bring her to him where she helped restore his mind, before they confronted the doctors of the Institute. ([[BFA]]: ''[[Unregenerate!]]'')
While dining at an [[Ealing]] café, the Doctor and Ace were alerted to an incursion on the TARDIS, and returned to find a creature trying to leech of its power, but was stuck between the "inside" and "outside" of the TARDIS. Before the Doctor could find a way to fight off the creature, the TARDIS collided with an experimental [[time vessel]] from ancient Gallifrey, the [[Time Scaphe]], which activated the [[Banshee Circuits]] and caused the TARDIS to reconfigure itself into a multi-dimensional [[city]], which the Doctor called a [[SARDIT]]. The creature, now calling itself "the [[Process]]", attempted to regain the "Future" which the Doctor had "stolen" by attempting to kill him, but failed.


On a vacation attempt, the Doctor found himself part of an alien expedition to [[1959]] to experience earth rock n' roll. Once there, he found the last [[Chimeron ]]queen, [[Delta]] hiding with her newborn young from the vicious [[Bannermen]]. The Doctor defeated the Bannermen by having their leader fall into his own trap, scaring them off. ([[DW]]: ''[[Delta and the Bannermen]]'')
Realising that the fluidity of time within the city had created three zones representing the Past, Present, and Future, and that the Process had made itself ruler of the city while using [[insectoid]] guards created from the Scaphe crew to search the city for the Future in exchange for food, the recovering Doctor trapped the Process in an [[Architectural Configuration]] until it died. A younger Process summoned the [[egg]] from which it had hatched, intending to ensure its Future and the creation of a new world by supervising its own birth, but [[Vael]], intending to kill the Doctor, accidentally turned the full force of his pseudo-pyrokinetic mind against the egg, incinerating it and preventing the Process and its timeline from coming into being. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Cat's Cradle: Time's Crucible (novel)}})


After a final adventure on [[Iceworld]], Mel chose to leave the Doctor and instead travel with [[Sabalom Glitz]], a con man she felt could be turned to the side of right with her help. On Iceworld, the Doctor met [[Ace]], a troubled teenager from [[1980s]] [[Earth]] who had somehow been transported to the planet. After Mel's departure, Ace agreed to travel with the Doctor. ([[DW]]: ''[[Dragonfire]]'')
After the TARDIS was damaged by the Process, it landed in the near future Earth. This Earth was ravaged by pollution with the uber-rich elite of the world doing nothing to stop it and instead putting their faith in a plan by the leader of the Butler Corporation (Matthew O'Hara) to transfer their minds into robotic bodies. The Doctor discovered this plan and began building a counterplan.


=== Travels with Ace ===
To do this, he sent Ace to Turkey to unearth a psychic named Vincent Wheaton held in suspended animation and lured an environmentalist named Justine to meet Vincent and serve as the "primer" for Vincent's attack on the Butler Corporation's secret facility. This plan went off largely without a hitch but ran into a snag at the last step when Justine's love for Vincent overruled her rage towards the Butler Corporation. Fortunately, O'Hara grabbed Vincent and triggered the attack - which massacred the Butler Corporation employees at the facility. In the aftermath of the Butler Corporation's plans failing, the elite decided to put their money into fixing the planet instead of escaping it. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Cat's Cradle: Warhead (novel)}})
The Doctor's first trip with Ace took him back to [[Coal Hill School]] in [[1963]], only a few days after he had left Earth with [[Susan Foreman|Susan]], [[Ian Chesterton]] and [[Barbara Wright]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[An Unearthly Child]]'') He returned to take care of unfinished business left behind by his [[First Doctor|first incarnation]]: the retrieval of the [[Hand of Omega]]. As the Doctor had anticipated, this mission was disrupted by the arrival of [[Dalek]]s, one faction of which was controlled by the new emperor, [[Davros]]. In defeating the Daleks, the seventh incarnation displayed a growing darkness of character, tricking the Daleks into using the Hand to destroy their own homeworld, [[Skaro]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks]]'')


The Doctor later lands on [[Terra Alpha]], where he helped remove [[Helen A ]]from power as her rules were completely insane and lead to the deaths of her people if they weren't happy 24/7. He showed Helena that sadness is also needed to balance ''true'' happiness. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Happiness Patrol]]'')
Arriving on board the [[bio-freighter]] ''[[Mitre]]'', the Doctor and Ace aided the crew in fending off a Dalek attack through a psychic link established between a partly mutated Doctor and a Dalek, simultaneously managing to revert the Daleks' mutation of the ship's [[embryo]]nic cargo into human-Dalek hybrids. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Metamorphosis (comic story)}})


Afterwards, the Doctor and Ace arrived at [[20th century]] [[Windsor]], encountering the [[Cybermen]] and Lady [[Peinforte]], a woman who displayed disturbing knowledge of the Doctor's true character. However, the Doctor stopped the Cybermen and Peinforte by using the Nemesis statue against them; Peinforte was absorbed by the statue and the Cybermen fleet was destroyed by the exploding statue. ([[DW]]: ''[[Silver Nemesis]]'')
[[File: Memorial.jpg|thumb|right|The Doctor meets [[Simon Galway]] at a memorial. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Memorial (comic story)}})]]
The Doctor planted the last seed of the [[Telphin]] in [[Simon Galway]] at a ceremony at Westmouth war memorial in 1945. He and Ace visited Simon at the same memorial fifty years later when the spirit was ready to emerge. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Memorial (comic story)}})


He later stopped the [[Gods of Ragnorok]] from kidnapping people who watched the [[Psychic Circus]] for their own twisted form of entertainment and destroyed them by reflecting a death beam directed at him towards them. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Greatest Show in the Galaxy]]'')
The Doctor persuaded [[Sean Calvin]] to abandon his scheme to use mind control and an army of androids to takeover [[Elysium 7]]. He and Ace visited Sean on an annual basis in [[The Uncertain-Tea Principle]], with the Doctor having to talk Sean down when he nearly relapsed when his marriage broke down. After Sean's scheme was exposed by a journalist he was arrested, which the Doctor confessed to Ace was always going to happen. He explained their interference meant that Sean's daughter, [[Odessa Calvin|Odessa]], would remember her father better, with his final words to her before accepting justice inspiring her. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Forever Fallen (audio story)}})


Sometime later, the Doctor had begun dressing in darker shades and ended up reuniting with his old friend, [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart|the Brigadier]] in an adventure that once again brought him to work with [[UNIT]]. During this event, it was revealed that the Doctor had or perhaps would lived in the time of King Arthur and had been known as [[Merlin]]. Using this possibly mistaken identity to his advantage, the Doctor stopped Morgane from using a nuclear missile by playing on her sense of honorable warfare. ([[DW]]: ''[[Battlefield]]'')
Contemplating a solitary [[retirement]], the Doctor travelled to [[Crook Marsham]], where he and Ace were forced to prevent the reawakening of [[The Sentience (Nightshade)|an ancient sentience]] which fed on [[nostalgia]] that had been trapped within the Earth since its formation. The Doctor tricked it into feeding off a [[supernova]], trapping it in the resulting [[black hole]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Nightshade (novel)}})


After learning of Ace's guilty conscience for burning down a "haunted" mansion in [[File:Glight02.jpg|thumb|112px|The Doctor and [[Ace]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[Ghost Light]]'')]]her time, the Doctor brought to Ace to its past, a hundred years before she would burn it down as a none-too-pleasant surprise for her. He found a temporarily imprisoned and dangerous entity called [[Light]]. Light planned to destroy the Earth in a childish fit as Earth had been evolving while it was trapped, making the catalogue it had made centuries earlier worthless. However, the Doctor was able to use the Light's childish logic to his advantage and convinced the Light to destroy itself as it had been evolving as well. He was delighted to have Ace overcome her guilt, but not so amused when she joked about blowing up the mansion instead of burning it down. ([[DW]]: ''[[Ghost Light]])''
After he set the TARDIS to undergo random reconfigurations, the Doctor discovered that Ace's bedroom had been deleted, concernedly noting that it was likely due to the TARDIS planning ahead. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Cat Litter (comic story)}})


Later, the Doctor accidently caused Ace to meet and interact with her grandmother and infant mother during a trip to the [[WW2]]. The Doctor revealed that he knew Ace's arrival and several intervening adventures had been arranged by [[Fenric]], an evil entity the Doctor had encountered before. Fenric had been trapped in another dimension by the Doctor and had escaped through its temporal manipulations. However, the Doctor convinced [[the Great One]], one of Fenric's servants, to kill its corporeal host in revenge for trying to trick it into beginning the Heamogoth. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Curse of Fenric]]'')
Whilst working on a [[Hypercube|cube]] in the TARDIS lab, the Doctor reacted angrily when Ace asked what it was. He later apologised to her. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Cathedral Heart (short story)}})


Soon after, the Doctor took Ace back to her time in [[Perivale]]. However, [[Kitling]]s had been spotted and people had been vanishing. The Doctor soon found that his arch-nemesis, [[the Master]], had been trapped and infected on Cheetah World and was trying to escape by bringing people to change partially and depart to Earth. After defeating the Master, the Doctor was surprised to learn Ace had decided the TARDIS was her home and still wanted to accompany him on his travel. Delighted, the Doctor departed with her. ([[DW]]: ''[[Survival]]'')
=== A fractured timeline ===
==== Overview ====
As shown by the [[Quantum Anvil]], there were multiple [[Ace's timeline|possible outcomes]] of the Doctor and Ace's travels together. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|At Childhood's End (novel)}}) Ace's travels with the Doctor were known to have been retrospectively meddled with at various points by the [[Council of Eight]] and [[Irving Braxiatel]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Sometime Never... (novel)}}, [[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Assassins (audio story)}}) A version of the Seventh Doctor which Ace later met in the [[Memory TARDIS]] acknowledged time streams could be a funny things, believing it was all a matter of perspective. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)}})


=== Work to Do ===
==== Taking Ace home ====
{{section cleanup}} {C
The Doctor took Ace to the last resting place of the [[Wraith (At Childhood's End)|Wraiths]] interdimensional beings that existed in multiple timelines simultaneously, and the home of the [[Astingir]], where the Doctor planned to check on the [[Quantum Anvil]] - a temporal possibility engine created by the Astingir in their war with the Wraiths which shattered the time streams of the latter into infinite potential outcomes leaving them intangible. He hoped Ace would make contact with the Anvil, enabling her to act as an emissary with the Wraiths. Ace did make contact with the Anvil which imbued her with the ability to commune with the Wraiths and became angered when the Doctor admitted that this had been why they'd come, as he hoped that she would act as an emissary for the Wraiths when the time came to establish peace between them and the Astingir. They were attacked by a hoard of Astingir and while trying to evade them, Ace used a can of Nitro-9 to distract them but ended up collapsing the ground beneath them, killing the entire group in the process. She was so traumatised by this that once they returned to to the TARDIS, she declared that she was leaving the Doctor. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|At Childhood's End (novel)}})
The Doctor spent an undisclosed time visiting a young girl named Raine Creevy when she was a child before travelling to her future where she was now a skilled thief and recruited to steal a sword for him while he sent Ace to Russia. He plotted to use the sword to ward off an alien incursion called the [[Metatraxi]]. ([[BFA]]: ''[[Crime of the Century]]'')


In the TARDIS, Ace found some overdue library books which the Doctor explained were from the library on Kar-Charrat. They travelled to the planet in order to return the books. The Doctor met an old friend, the chief librarian Elgin. The Daleks had used time corridor technology to deploy Daleks on every planet in the sector, and then waited hundreds of years to capture a time-sensitive Time Lord in order to penetrate the library's defences and allow them to seize the Wetworks Facility. They created a duplicate of Ace, which — replete with the DNA tag — would be able to get through the library's barriers. The Doctor was forced to surrender. The Daleks took him to the facility, and connected him to the machinery. They successfully download the entire knowledge of the Universe into a Dalek test subject. After the download was completed, the test-subject went out of control. Trying to allow the Doctor to re-enter the surrounded TARDIS, the Kar-Charratians killed the Daleks surrounding the time machine, but the duplicate Ace arrived. The duplicate was impervious to the rain unlike the Daleks, and threatened to kill Elgin. However, the chief cataloguer Prink rushed to his aid and attacked the duplicate, damaging it. The Doctor proceeded to the Wetworks with the intention of destroying it, using Ace to pretend to be her own duplicate to get past the Daleks. At the facility they encountered the Dalek test-subject and the Dalek Supreme arguing. Having obtained something of a conscience, the test-subject was refusing to destroy the Wetworks facility against the Supreme's orders. The Dalek Supreme retreated to its mother-ship leaving the Special Weapons Dalek to kill the test-subject, but the Nitro-9 succeeded in blowing up the machinery of the Wetworks, and the Kar-Charratians managed to escape. ([[BFA]]: ''[[The Genocide Machine]]'')
A similar account claimed that, following an adventure involving [[the Rani]], the Doctor and Ace had a row, after which she "abandoned ship" in the Doctor's words. The Doctor mistakenly dropped her off in London in [[Ontario]] instead of London in England. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)}}) Their row was known to [[the Master]], who later taunted Ace over it. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Power of the Doctor (TV story)}})


Sometime after facing the Daleks, the Doctor decided to travel to the current location of ''The Scream''. He planned to add it to his collection since it was part of established history that it would be stolen. He and Ace arrived on a barren, sandy planet and discovered a deadly curse on the painting, living dust and encountered the Master in the form of a previous incarnation. The [[Trakenite]] body could not be sustained and the Master’s decaying body returned. He planned to unleash a terrible, ancient force on the universe through the dust, but the Doctor and Ace stopped him. Ace remarked that the Doctor should save them trouble and start collecting stamps. ([[BFA]]: ''[[Dust Breeding]]'')
==== Fighting the Lobri ====
[[File:AceDeadGroundZero.jpg|thumb|left|The Doctor cradles Ace's body. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Ground Zero (comic story)}})]]
Travelling with a teenaged Ace, who was kidnapped by [[Threshold|the Threshold]], the Doctor tracked her down to another plane of existence. Travelling there at the expense of his TARDIS, he witnessed her sacrifice her life in order to destroy one of the [[Lobri]], psychic parasites feeding off the human race's collective fear and hatred. Devastated, the Doctor cradled her dying body in his arms as she whispered him a final goodbye. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Ground Zero (comic story)}})


The TARDIS materialized in Colditz Castle where the Doctor was shot in the shoulder and Ace was captured. The TARDIS was confiscated by the Germans and the Doctor was questioned about it. Soon after, a woman named Elizabeth Klein arrives and demands that the Doctor hand over his TARDIS key. The Doctor, fearing for Ace’s safety, does so and tries to work out how Klein knows about his TARDIS. He was informed that he was to be placed in Klein’s custody. Klein forged her identification papers and travelled to this parallel time period in the Doctor’s TARDIS to capture him to take him back to her alternative future so he could teach her to fully control the TARDIS. In her future, the Germans won the war, the Doctor’s TARDIS was discovered and he was killed. Klein accessed the TARDIS flight logs to travel here to learn about the TARDIS before the Doctor dies. The Doctor refuses, but Klein bargains Ace’s life for his co-operation. They discover that the TARDIS in which Klein arrived, has dematerialized and are forced to use the TARDIS the Doctor and Ace arrived in. Back at Colditz Castle, the Doctor manipulates a duty-bound Krutz to expose Klein and prevent Klein's timeline from happening by locating the CD-player Ace had left behind. Klein escapes, now an anomaly. ([[BFA]]: ''[[Colditz]]'')
Deeply depressed about the affair, the Doctor allowed the TARDIS to reform itself to reflect his depressed mood. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Threshold (short story)}})


After the traumatic events of Colditz, Ace asked to relax. The Doctor and she visited [[Ibiza]] where a strange DJ called Gabriel was using the power of music and his belief that he was an angel to raise an army for his brother out of the young people who came to party at their club. The army was needed to fight a war in another dimension. The Doctor stopped Gabriel, but his brother opted to continue their work until the Doctor was forced to stop his plans as well. ([[BFA]]: ''[[The Rapture]]'')
==== Dark days as Time's Champion ====
===== Falling out on Heaven =====
Following the funeral of Ace's friend [[Julian Milton]], the Doctor brought the TARDIS to [[2570]] [[Heaven (Love and War)|Heaven]], where the pair became friends with a group called the [[Traveller (Love and War)|Travellers]]. The Doctor then helped Professor [[Bernice Summerfield]] open the way to a [[Heavenite]] observatory, and deciphered writing they found to discover a plot by the [[Hoothi]] to use Heaven to create an army of the dead. Entering [[Puterspace]], the Doctor was attacked by the [[Vacuum Church]], working in league with the Hoothi, and forced to relive the slow death of his [[third incarnation]], until he was freed by [[Christopher (Love and War)|Christopher]], a psychic Traveller.


On Earth again, in the [[2021]] the Doctor and Ace were investigating signs of "xenotech" alien technology in use at [[St Gart's Brookside Hospital]] in [[London]], here, while combating a [[Cyberman]] threat he encountered [[Hex|Thomas Hector Scholefield]] the son of [[Cassandra Scholefield]], whom the Doctor had met in his earlier [[Sixth Doctor|sixth incarnation]]. Following their encounter and battle against the Cyber threat Hex joined the Doctor and Ace in their travels. ([[BFA]]: ''[[The Harvest]]'')
Realising the danger the falling Hoothi fibres would cause, the Doctor ordered Bernice to quickly unearth the observatory, which could detect otherwise invisible [[Hoothi sphere]]s, and, knowing that the [[pyrokinetic]] Traveller [[Jan Rydd]], whom Ace had fallen in love with, had been infected by a fibre, the Doctor ordered him to travel to the sphere. After using [[Brother]] [[Phaedrus]] of the Vacuum Church to summon the sphere to Puterspace, the Doctor used Christopher to send a message to Jan to ignite the sphere, killing himself in the process. With Heaven safe, the Doctor left to wander the Vortex alone for a while. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Love and War (novel)}})


The Doctor stood for presidency on [[Colony 34]]. The reigning leader was trying to avoid an election for fear of losing and was using his influence to discredit the parties that stood against him. The Doctor faked his own death and with the help of Ace and Hex and managed to expose everything the government had been trying to keep secret including deaths, disappearances. ([[BFA]]: ''[[LIVE 34]]'')
Trapped in [[the Determinant]] by {{Ainley}} along with his six previous incarnations, the Doctor was saved when [[the Graak]] defeated the Master, sacrificing all of its life force to free the trapped Doctors. ([[GAME]]: {{cs|Destiny of the Doctors (video game)}}


When TARDIS materialized in the woods, where Ace accidentally fell into a nearby lake. Taking her to a nearby cabin, the Doctor discovered people being killed and that the people there are experimenting with time. 10 Years ago, a girl had been killed as a result of a misdiagnosis and the scientists were trying to send a message back to warn their past selves. This interference with the timeline caused the girl to become alive again in a state of zombie-like limbo. To correct their mistake, the Doctor travelled back and undid the damage. ([[BFA]]: ''[[Night Thoughts]]'')
The Doctor visited [[K9 Mark I|K9]] on Gallifrey to ask after [[Leela]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Affirmative (short story)}}) met his great-granddaughter [[Barbara Campbell]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|A Time & a Place (short story)}}) encountered a [[Private (Front Line)|private]] on the front line in World War I ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Front Line (short story)}}) and visited what was once Earth's most famous art [[Gallery (The Gallery)|gallery]]. He wept at the state the gallery had been left in. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Gallery (short story)}}) The Doctor observed [[Sonia Bannen]] being killed in a food riot, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Parasite (novel)}}) visited his old friend [[Tochtli]] in [[Tenochtitlan]] ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Nobody's Gift (short story)}}) and attended the funeral of [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]] with all of his other incarnations. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Gift (ST short story)}}, {{cs|Shroud of Sorrow (novel)}})


The Doctor sent Ace and Hex to Monte Carlo in 1969 to recover the Veiled Leopard diamond. ([[BFA]]: ''[[The Veiled Leopard]]'')
Returning to Heaven for Ace, the Doctor found that Ace was disgusted with him for sacrificing Jan, and, refusing to forgive him, stormed off. Bernice, though with some reluctance, agreed to travel with the Doctor in Ace's place, under the condition that he didn't treat her the way he did Ace, and also told him to call her "Benny". ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Love and War (novel)}})


In 1854 the the Doctor paid a visit to Michael Faraday where he delivered the remains of the [[Special Weapons Dalek]]. Ulrick showed up and was followed by several Daleks tracking him through time. The Doctor manipulated the events so that Ulrick would time travel once more and send the Daleks after him – knowing that they would encounter his previous incarnation. The Doctor joined his Fifth, Sixth and Eighth incarnations briefly before being returned to his own timeline. ([[BFA]]: ''[[The Four Doctors]]''){{what}}

When the Doctor, Ace and Hex arrived in Egypt in 1902. They met a young Time Lady named Jane who had been stranded for centuries on Earth trying to find her TARDIS. She accidentally transgressed the laws of time by becoming a god to the locals. The Doctor informed Jane that her TARDIS was dying.

Landing on the planet [[Hell (planet)|Hell]], the Doctor and Benny encountered the [[Star Tigers]], only for the group to be kidnapped by [[Abslom Daak]] and brought to what Daak thought was Earth, but was in fact Skaro, as Daak had been tricked by the Daleks. Interrogating the Doctor, the [[Dalek Emperor]] discovered that Davros was on [[Spiridon]], and transported him and his friends to the planet to aid the Daleks in their search. Discovering that Davros had used the Daleks frozen on Spiridon to create a new Dalek army for himself, the Emperor's Daleks launched an attack on Davros' army, with Doctor and his friends captured by Davros, who destroyed the Dalek Emperor and returned to Skaro with the now unconditioned allies, only for the group to escape with Daak's assistance.

The Doctor, Ace and Hex landed on Bliss, a jungle planet under Dalek attack. While Ace and Hex helped in the battle with the Daleks, the Doctor discovered that a local professor had combined larvae and Piranha-locust DNA to create a new species known as the Ki-sabia. The Ki-sabia feed on metal and was created to save mankind from the Daleks, but quickly became uncontrollable. They decimated the Dalek forces.

Whilst Benny discovered a ruined citadel, the Doctor realised that a group of humans had also been drawn to the planet by the Flicker and witnessed the arrival of [[Sheldukher]], an infamous criminal in search of the Highest Science, alongside a genetically engineered super-intellect nicknamed "the [[Cell (The Highest Science)|Cell]]". Taken hostage, the Doctor was forced to reveal his own knowledge of the Science, leading Sheldukher to the citadel where they discovered Benny. Managing to enter the building's inner sanctum, the group discovered that the entire planet had been a trap for Sheldukher, who had stolen the Cell from its creators, who were desperate to regain it. Giving the Cell the death it desired, the Doctor and Benny managed to escape in time to save the humans from being slaughtered by the Chelonians. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Highest Science (novel)}})


Shortly afterwards, the TARDIS materialized in Alaska in the 1930s with the Doctor wanting to investigate a strange ice formation. They soon met an expedition team looking for an ancient secret. The Doctor and Ace became separated from the rest of the group and were presumed dead. In reality, they had arrived at what appeared to be an island psychiatric facility and met a young poet who took them to the person in charge.

=== Nearing the End ===
Having joined the [[Spacefleet]] and gone to fight in many wars, Ace reunited with the Doctor three years later as a part of his plan to purge the virus the TARDIS had become infected with when he had used [[protoplasm]] to restore it. Older and battle hardened, she struggled to get along with both him and Benny after they reunited to defeat the [[gestalt]] being [[Pool (Deceit)|Pool]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Deceit (novel)}}) Returning to a life of TARDIS travel, Ace decided to take revenge on the Doctor, manipulating him into committing murder in order to make him pay for his amoral actions. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Lucifer Rising (novel)}})

The Doctor kept Klein as somewhat of a reluctant companion as to prevent her from causing any more damage to the web of time. She recounted what caused her to use the TARDIS that resulted in the destruction of her timeline. It turned out that the Doctor; an alternate Seventh Doctor orchestrated his regeneration into the Eighth to manipulate Klein into using the TARDIS and re-rewrite history. ([[BFA]]: [[Klein's Story|Klein’s Story)]]<span style="display: none"> </span>


After travelling together for a period of time, the Doctor and Klein arrived on an insectoid planet and met the Vril, who communicated through smell, although the TARDIS’ translation circuits helped the duo in understanding the Vril. In the midst of a war, Klein stole the Doctor’s TARDIS and abandoned him on the planet. ([[BFA]]: ''[[Survival of the Fittest]]'')
The Doctor took Ace and Benny to a [[Parallel universe|parallel Earth]] where his third incarnation had perished in the Wenley Moor incident, though peace between humanity and [[Silurians]] had still been achieved. Working with the [[United Races Intelligence Command|URIC]], the Doctor helped foil the schemes of rogue Silurian scientist [[Mortakk]] and coldly watched as he died when an URIC attack on his base released a gas he'd planned to unleash on London. Afterwards the Doctor visited his parallel self's grave, with Ace and Benny speculating his alternate selves might be the closest thing the Doctor had to family. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Final Genesis (comic story)}})


Klein used the Doctor’s TARDIS to rewrite history so that the Germans had won the war. She captured this new timeline’s Doctor and imprisoned him on the moon. She helped the Galactic Reich conquer the Daleks and Sontarans and any other potential threats by travelling in time and informing the past. While visiting the Doctor, trying to find out where this version’s TARDIS was, Klein, along with the rest of Moonbase came under attack by a race of shark-like warriors. The Doctor had sent them there and supplied them with the necessary technology to destroy the base. Klein discovered that this alternate Doctor had retained the memories of her version’s life as well. The two of them escaped in his TARDIS where the Doctor informed her that the Timelords had tried her and found her guilty. She was erased from history, along with the alternate Doctor, restoring things to their correct order. Afterwards, the original Doctor paid a visit to UNIT where he encountered a different version of Klein who was now working for UNIT. ([[BFA]]: ''[[The Architects of History]]'')
The trio travelled to [[Haiti]] in [[1915]], where they encountered [[zombie]]s and [[Cthulhu|an Old One]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|White Darkness (novel)}}) and the planet [[Arden (planet)|Arden]], where they defeated the [[Umbra (Shadowmind)|Umbra]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Shadowmind (novel)}})


The Doctor decided to take a vacation long overdue to the planet of Ormelia. The TARDIS materialized aboard a spaceship orbiting the planet. There, the Doctor befriended a genetically reconstructed creature named Vilgreth. It was only later the Doctor discovered that Vilgreth’s ship travelled through space by devouring planets, and so was forced to stop him. ([[BFA]]: ''[[Last of the Titans]]'')
Leaving Ace and Benny to fend off a Charrl invasion of Earth in the early 20th century without him, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Birthright (novel)}}) the Doctor used the TARDIS's [[Jade Pagoda]] to visit early 21st century Earth, meeting a [[reporter]] named [[Ruby Duvall]] during an adventure involving Cybermen at the [[South Pole]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Iceberg (novel)}}) before the trio were reunited. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Birthright (novel)}})


Travelling to the Forge in hopes of destroying it completely, the Doctor found his Sixth incarnation assisting Nimrod and reluctantly helped the Forge fend off a telepathic transporting alien incursion. His predecessor’s arm was lost in the battle which confirmed that this Doctor was a fake. The fake Doctor explained that Nimrod used DNA samples from the real Doctor when they last met to clone the Doctor, Project Lazarus, in an attempt to learn the secrets of regeneration. The Doctor initiates a plan to blow up the Forge, but the Lazarus Doctor was the one that delivers the final blow, killing everyone in the base. ([[BFA]]: ''[[Project Lazarus (audio story)|Project: Lazarus]]'')Near the end of his life, the seventh incarnation returned to the [[House of Lungbarrow]] on [[Gallifrey]]. During his time on Gallifrey, President [[Romana II|Romana]] assigned him to collect the Master's remains from Skaro. ([[NA]]: ''[[Lungbarrow]]'')
After they found [[1993]] [[London]] in ruins and under attack from various aliens species, the Doctor, Ace and Benny learnt from the [[White Guardian]] that the [[Black Guardian]] had changed history by preventing the [[First Doctor]] from leaving [[Gallifrey]], and that they needed to find the segments of the [[Key to Time]] to undo the damage, with the segments having been dispersed along the Doctor's [[time track]]. After the Doctor retrieved two pieces from his first and [[sixth incarnation]]s, the White Guardian used them and the other pieces to restore time to normal. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Time & Time Again (comic story)}})


=== Death ===
Visiting [[1855]] [[Lifton]], the TARDIS trio encountered [[Surcoth (Cuckoo)|a Surcoth]] who was posing as Dr. [[Thomas Gideon]]. The Doctor soon discovered that he was in search of the remains of one of his ancestors, who had crashed on Earth millions of years prior. Despite the fact that he had killed Gideon, the Doctor let him take the remains and leave. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Cuckoo (comic story)}})
The Doctor, now much older, had been travelling alone and had been assigned to transport the ashes of the Master from Skaro to Gallifrey as the Master's final request. The Doctor knew the Master was just as much a threat in death as in life and tried to stow away his ashes safely. However, he was more right than he had realised; the Master escaped from his ashes' container and damaged the inner workings of the TARDIS console. The Doctor was forced to make an emergency landing in [[San Francisco]] on [[30 December]] [[1999]].


No sooner had he left the TARDIS, than the Doctor was caught in a [[San Francisco]] gang gun battle and shot, once straight through the shoulder and twice in the leg. The Doctor failed to get [[Chang Lee]] to stop the Master from leaving the TARDIS before losing [[File:Seventh_Doctor_dead_on_operating_table.jpg|thumb|164px|End of the 7th Doctor.]]consciousness. Taken to hospital, the bullets were found to have caused only minor injuries. However, due to a seeming abnormality in the Doctor's X-ray, caused by his second heart, cardiologist Dr. [[Grace Holloway]] undertook exploratory surgery to "fix" his abnormal heartbeat. Waking up just as Grace was to begin, the Doctor tried to stop the surgery by explaining his non-terrestrial origins, but was quickly put under anesthetic. The Doctor was accidentally killed when Grace damaged his circulatory system with a probe. Though they attempted to revive him, the Doctor's seventh body was dead, but had not yet regenerated.
===== Struggling with alternate timelines =====
Landing on [[Silurian Earth|an alternate Earth where the Silurians had killed the Doctor]] in [[Third Doctor|his third incarnation]], the TARDIS trio lost the TARDIS and became embroiled in an inter-species conflict. Managing to escape in [[The Doctor's TARDIS (Silurian Earth)|his parallel counterpart's TARDIS]], the Doctor was forced to destroy the alternate universe in order to generate the energy needed to restore the original. Realising that someone was meddling with his own timeline, the Doctor set out to discover who. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Blood Heat (novel)}})


Unlike his previous deaths, the Doctor did not regenerate into a new body until several hours later in the hospital morgue. His [[Eighth Doctor|eighth incarnation]] later attributed this to having been under anesthesia at the time of his "death".'' (''[[DW]]: ''[[Doctor Who (1996)|Doctor Who]])''
After defeating the [[Garvond]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Dimension Riders (novel)}}) and an [[Aztec]] warrior with abnormal [[Psychic power|psychic]] abilities, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Left-Handed Hummingbird (novel)}}) the Doctor once again became trapped in the [[Land of Fiction]], this time by a young man named [[Jason (Conundrum)|Jason]], who wanted him to replace him as the [[Master of the Land]]. The travellers ultimately managed to escape. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Conundrum (novel)}})


=== Undated Adventures ===
During a visit to [[1970s]] Earth, the Doctor uncovered a scheme devised by {{Champion|n=Mortimus the Meddling Monk}}, and discovered that it was he who had made the changes to the Doctor's timeline he and his companions had recently discovered by enslaving a [[Chronovore]] named [[Artemis (No Future)|Artemis]]. Thwarting a [[Vardan]] invasion of Earth and freeing the Chronovore, the Doctor successfully defeated Mortimus, finally managing to reconcile with Ace and enabling her and Benny to resolve their differences in the process. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|No Future (novel)}})

===== Amicable travels =====
{{section stub|Info from ''[[Question Mark Pyjamas (short story)|Question Mark Pyjamas]]'', ''[[Citadel of Dreams (novel)|Citadel of Dreams]]'', {''[[Theatre of War (novel)|Theatre of War]]'', ''[[All-Consuming Fire (novel)|All-Consuming Fire]]'', ''[[Strange England (novel)|Strange England]]'', ''[[First Frontier (novel)|First Frontier]]'', ''[[St Anthony's Fire (novel)|St Anthony's Fire]]'', ''[[Falls the Shadow (novel)|Falls the Shadow]]'', ''[[Parasite (novel)|Parasite]]'', & ''[[Warlock (novel)|Warlock]]'' needs to be added}}


== Psychological Profile ==
Now roaming the universe amicably, the three friends visited many planets, including [[Olleril]], during its annual [[Tragedy Day]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Tragedy Day (novel)}}) and [[Peladon]], whilst tracking [[the Diadem]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Legacy (novel)}})
=== Personality ===
[[File:Seventh_Doctor_considers.jpg|thumb|left|200px|The Doctor considers the consequences of a decision he has to make. ([[DW]]: ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks]]'')]]
The Seventh Doctor was originally light-hearted and prone to clownish behaviour, which masked his intellect and courage. As he matured, he took a much darker turn. This "darker" side would come to define him, as he became a master manipulator who saw the battle between good and evil as a game of chess and everyone around him as pawns to be manipulated in the game of fighting evil. Frequently, he would only see the "bigger picture" rather than the world before him. An example of this was when the Doctor devastated Ace by labelling her, among other things, an "emotional cripple" during his battle with Fenric. This was necessary for her to briefly abandon her belief in him, weakening Fenric's power, which he did not explain until later. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Curse of Fenric]]'')


Despite his manipulative actions, such as (by one account) using psychic powers to make Mel leave ([[NA]]: ''[[Head Games]]''), the seventh incarnation did care for his companions. He had a paternal relationship with Ace, which ultimately soured when Ace found herself unable to deal with the Doctor's growing emotional coldness.
The Doctor confronted a group of [[Eternal|Eternals]] led by Lord [[Prospero (Uninvited Guest)|Prospero]] during a party where they celebrated a successful game, which had resulted in the devastation of a world. The Doctor broke a crystallised shard of the [[Time Vortex]], stripping the Eternals of their powers and giving them a mortal life, and then walked off. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Uninvited Guest (comic story)}})


Aspects of his light-hearted nature did continue. He seemed to relish his game against [[Light]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[Ghost Light]]'') He was not totally unfeeling when it came to the "bigger picture"; he appeared apprehensive about his decision to destroy Skaro, and agonised when he had to convince Ace that he did not care about her. ([[DW]]: ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks]]'', [[DW]]: ''[[The Curse of Fenric]]'')
The Doctor encountered the [[Scourge]] whilst dreaming on the [[astral plane]] and pretended to go along with their plans to conquer Earth. He made arrangements to surrender Earth to the Scourge at [[Pinehill Crest Hotel]], allowing them to place their shadow on him as security and devising a trap to banish them instead. He brought Ace and Benny along, however his plan to banish the Scourge when they attempted to arrive on Earth failed as they'd anticipated his betrayal. They activated their shadow to take him over, however he entered a coma to hold back the Scourge soldier in his mind which also delayed their travel to Earth. Benny used a psychic, [[Annie Carpenter]], who had been the Scourge's bridgehead to make contact with him and enter his mind. Benny's efforts to help him appeared to fail as he fell into the Scourge group mind, however from there he devised a plan and contacted Ace. Benny entered his mind a second time and they prevailed against the Scourge soldier, allowing him to awaken and rally the humans at the hotel to deprive the Scourge of their power over humanity so he could banish them. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Shadow of the Scourge (audio story)}})


Upon meeting his future self, the [[Fifth Doctor]] was repulsed by his manipulative nature. The Seventh Doctor had a similarly low opinion of his fifth incarnation, describing him as "bland" and "not even one of the good ones." ([[MA]]: ''[[Cold Fusion]]'')
When the Doctor and Ace went to [[Orbos]] to collect Benny, who had been to see her friend [[Victor Farrison]], Ace was affected by [[Remnex]]'s psychic message. The Doctor later entrusted Ace with the safe keeping of the skull of [[Vilus Krull]], whilst he went to [[Marran Alpha]]. After being trapped on Marran Alpha and fighting the living skeletons, the Doctor got them back to the Space Station. The Doctor and Ace stopped the black light explosion to rejuvenate Benny's hand which had become aged after being touched by the Dark Flame. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Dark Flame (audio story)}})


The [[Renegade Time Lord|renegade]] [[Time Lord|Time Lady]] [[Iris Wildthyme]] was not fond of the Seventh Doctor. She subsequently described him to the [[Eighth Doctor]] as "a portentous little feller, swaggering around, thinking he’s got all the world’s darkest secrets under his hat." Furthermore, she thought that he was "a pretentious old thing" who "got on [her] nerves" as he regarded himself as the Guardian of Forever and Time's Champion. ([[EDA]]: ''[[The Scarlet Empress]]'')
The Doctor, Ace, and Bernice visited [[LaMort]], where Benny realised that her house was in a run-down condition and the yard had decaying plants and maggots. The Doctor went in to confront LaMort about not committing [[suicide]], as she had grown bored with all the ways and places that death took place. Bernice, though, managed to convince her not to commit suicide by describing all the planets that humans had brought death to in her time. LaMort dropped the pills she was about to consume, and they transformed into souls that melted away. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Virgin Lands (short story)}})


== Appearance ==
The Doctor had Ace and Benny deliver [[Stuart Mallory]] to [[Antarctica]], where [[Frobisher]] was waiting for him. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Last Emperor (short story)}})


At the beginning of his seventh incarnation, the Doctor wore an off-white safari-styled jacket. He wore a red paisley scarf under the lapels and had a matching handkerchief in the left pocket. Like many of his previous incarnations, he wore a fob watch as part of his clothing. He also wore a yellow pullover with turquoise zigzag lines and red question marks. Under the pullover he wore a white shirt with red tie. For trousers, he wore sand-coloured tweed plaid trousers with white and brown brogued spectator shoes. He also wore a white colonial-styled Panama hat, similar to the hat he had worn in his [[Fifth Doctor|fifth incarnation]]. The hat had a paisley hat band and an upturned brim. He carried an umbrella which had a red, question-mark shaped handle. ([[DW]]: ''[[Delta and the Bannermen]]'' ''et. al.'')
The Doctor decided to drop Benny and Ace off at a [[St Matthew's University]], where he wanted to find out more about the [[Library (The Big Blue Book)|library]]. He took a train to [[Kent]] shortly afterwards. After Ace and Benny, who were in disguise as a cleaner and professor, dealt with alien criminals, [[Vassa]] and [[Lycurgus]], the Doctor wanted to know all about their adventure. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Big Blue Book (audio story)}})
[[File:DWM 305 Back in the tardis.jpg|left|thumb|The Doctor, Ace and Benny together in the TARDIS. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Last Word (comic story)}})]]
Planning to draw out the [[Timewyrm]], the Doctor sent Benny and Ace to key nexus points in the 1980s and [[57th century]]. The Timewyrm confronted him in the TARDIS and revealed it had discarded its physical form to exist only in [[Puterspace]], pulling him in and leaving him alone. As he planned when it went to feed on the distortions in history the Timewyrm inadvertently corrected the timeline, weakening it enough that he was able to trap it when it returned to Puterspace. The Doctor returned to the TARDIS and collected Benny and Ace, deciding to write a novel based on the adventure. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Last Word (comic story)}})


When the Doctor's personality began to change, his outfit changed alongside it. His jacket, hat band, handkerchief, scarf and tie became darker, varying between shades of burgundy and brown. ([[DW]]: ''[[Ghost Light]]'' et al)
The Doctor was eventually called by the [[Committee of Three]] to track down [[Agonal]]. He and Ace landed in [[Chicago]], where she and [[Tom Dekker]] started a relationship. When a peace treaty between the mobs went wrong, he, Ace, and Dekker landed on the [[vampire planet]] to pick up Benny and [[Romana II|Romana]], and brought them to Gallifrey. After figuring out Agonal's plans, [[Rassilon]] eventually trapped him in his tomb. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Blood Harvest (novel)}})


By the end of this incarnation, his outfit had altered again. He wore a light brown tweed jacket, with a red waistcoat and a black and brown, zigzag patterned tie. He still wore his Panama hat. ([[DW]]: ''[[Doctor Who (1996)|Doctor Who]]'')
After an encounter with the Doctor and Benny's old acquaintance Kadiatu and [[Ant (Set Piece)|a race of ant-like robots]], during which she was stranded in ancient [[Egypt]], Ace left the TARDIS to travel alone as Time's Vigilante. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Set Piece (novel)}})


=== Habits and Quirks ===
===== Alone with Benny =====
The seventh incarnation was a consummate fan of [[chess]], to the point of treating his companions and enemies as pieces on a chess board. ([[DW]]: ''[[Silver Nemesis]]'', ''[[The Curse of Fenric]]'') Despite his tendency toward a dark personality, the seventh incarnation was known for his use of words to resolve problems instead of violence.
{{section stub|Info from ''[[Larkspur (short story)|Larkspur]]'' & ''[[The Hesitation Deviation (audio story)|The Hesitation Deviation]]'' needs to be added}}


He also rolled his 'R's, and spoke with a Scottish accent.
The Doctor and Benny had an encounter with powerful [[Sensopath]]s from the end of time, during which Benny's good friend, [[Darius Cheynor]], died. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Infinite Requiem (novel)}})


He liked to carry around a [[question mark]] umbrella, often using it for practical purposes unrelated to keeping the rain away. ([[DW]]: ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks]]'')
[[File:John Smith and Joan Redfern play chess.jpg|thumb|"John Smith" and Joan Redfern play chess. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Human Nature (novel)}})|alt=]]
After an adventure in the [[13th century]] where Benny fell in love with a member of the [[Knights Templar]] named [[Guy de Carnac]], only to lose him in the [[Albigensian Crusade]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Sanctuary (novel)}}) the Doctor physically changed himself into a human called [[John Smith (Seventh Doctor)|John Smith]] and lived for a time as such, resulting in him falling in love with a human woman called [[Joan Redfern (novel character)|Joan Redfern]]. However, he sacrificed this persona and his chance of a relationship with Joan in order to stop the [[Aubertide]]s. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Human Nature (novel)}})


A habit occasionally displayed was a tendency to mangle and combine earth idioms, such as "Time and tide melt the snowman" ,"A stitch in time... takes up space" and "Fit as a... trombone".
Returning to [[Tara (planet)|Tara]], the Doctor and Benny found themselves in a confrontation with Count [[Grendel of Gracht|Grendel]], along with a rebuilt [[Kandyman]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Trials of Tara (short story)}})


Also, early into this incarnation, the Doctor showed a knack for playing the spoons as a musical instrument, though this was seen less as he matured.
The Doctor and Benny took a trip across the ocean to [[Sydney]] on board the ships the ''[[Mermaid (ship)|Mermaid]]'', the ''[[Swiftsure]]'', the ''[[Governor Ready]]'', the ''[[Comet (ship)|Comet]]'' and the ''[[Jupiter (ship)|Jupiter]]'' in order to enable [[Sarah Richley|a sick woman]] to see [[Peter Richley|her son]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Of the Mermaid and Jupiter (short story)}})
 
The Doctor decided to broker a peace on the planet [[Shanquis]]. He was kidnapped by those who didn't want to the peacetalks to work. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Bernice Summerfield and the Criminal Code (audio story)}})
 
===== Joined by two Adjudicators =====

[[File:Original Sin Doctor.jpg|thumb|The Doctor encounters Chris and Roz. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Original Sin (novel)}})|alt=|left]]
After he rescued [[Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart]] from a slave ship, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Also People (novel)}}) the Doctor took the TARDIS to [[30th century]] Earth in search of answers to the dying words of a [[Hith]] warrior on [[Oolis]]. He and Benny encountered [[Adjudicator]]s [[Chris Cwej]] and [[Roz Forrester]], and helped them solve a mystery involving murder and corruption at the very heart of the Empire. Growing attached, the Doctor allowed them to join him on his travels. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Original Sin (novel)}})
 
Shortly after departing from the Earth Empire, the Doctor accidentally materialized the TARDIS into the center of a reality bomb. This sent the TARDIS careening through the Time Vortex where it was noticed by a being known as a Charon and drawn into a pocket universe known as the System. Once inside the System, the Doctor (alongside Benny) allied himself with a pirate captain known as Nathan li Shao and an Anean ''Seku'' named Leetha t'Zhan and helped in their quest to reclaim the "Eyes of the Schirron". Throughout this quest through the various Wanderers, the Doctor slowly became aware of the true nature of the System. Soon, while on the watery Wanderer of Elysium, Nathan's crew were kidnapped by the Sloathe Sekor Dom and hir human ally Solan and brought to the System's sun. Once inside the Sun, the Doctor encountered the Charon (the last remnant of an ancient enemy of the Time Lords) and was attacked by it. This simply stripped away the Doctor's various "shells" and increased his power. He then mercy-killed the Charon. Once the System reformed as a normal stellar system, the Doctor and his companions departed. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Sky Pirates! (novel)}})
 
The four travellers encountered (or re-encountered, for Benny and the Doctor) the Chelonians on the planet [[Zamper]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Zamper (novel)}}) and prevented the [[Q'ell (species)|Q'ell]] from using [[the Recruiter]] to kidnap children from Earth. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Toy Soldiers (novel)}})
 
As a result of Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart's time travel, the Doctor once again became involved in an adventure involving the Land of Fiction, where he was reunited with both Ace and Mel. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Head Games (novel)}}) After the traumatic events which befell them on [[Detrios]], the Doctor took his companions to the paradise planet of the Worldsphere, returning to Kadiatu three months after he had rescued her. Successfully solving the mystery of an apparent murder, the Doctor was relieved of the duty of killing her when Benny judged her fit for rehabilitation. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Also People (novel)}})
 
The four continued to journey together, becoming involved in the [[Rutan-Sontaran War]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Shakedown (novel)}}) arriving in Nazi occupied Britain, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Just War (novel)}}) and becoming involved in the events surrounding the re-emergence of ancient power of psi in humanity on Earth in the 21st century ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Warchild (novel)}}) and on [[Dione]] in the [[23rd century|23rd]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|SLEEPY (novel)}})
 
After discovering that Benny was engaged, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Death and Diplomacy (novel)}}) the Doctor set about arranging an elaborate occasion for her wedding to [[Jason Kane]]. Reunited with many past friends, including many previous colleagues from UNIT and his original TARDIS, the Doctor foiled a plan devised by {{Frontier}} to weave himself a new body after the [[Tzun]] [[nanite]]s he had acquired began to fail. Enjoying the celebrations with all of his friends, the Doctor wished Benny all the best in her new life. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Happy Endings (novel)}})

Now one member smaller, the TARDIS crew continued their travels, discovering an ancient Martian weapon known as the [[GodEngine]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|GodEngine (novel)}}) visiting America in the 20th and 21st centuries ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Christmas on a Rational Planet (novel)}}) and reuniting with Benny to aid her in her search for [[Isaac Summerfield]], her father. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Return of the Living Dad (novel)}})
 
Investigating strange events on an ice planet ruled by the [[Scientifica]], the Doctor was able to set Roz up with contacts in the local rebellion while Chris acted as an undercover agent, but the situation was complicated when the [[Fifth Doctor]] was drawn to the same planet. In the process, the Seventh Doctor encountered the [[Ferutu]], and was briefly taken to their universe to learn more about them. When [[Unitatus]] agent [[Medford]] nearly destroyed ancient Gallifrey by sending a [[The Machine|prototype TARDIS]] loaded with [[fusion bomb]]s, the two Doctors were able to delay the Machine's transit in the vortex before the Ferutu arrived, the Seventh Doctor revealing that they came from the timeline where Gallifrey was destroyed. Much to the horror of his fifth incarnation, the Seventh Doctor then tricked the Ferutu into destroying their own timeline by holding the Machine in the vortex at a point where it would collide with its past self, the older Machine being destroyed while the younger one crash-landed in the past to set events in motion. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Cold Fusion (novel)}})
 
Landing on [[Thrantas]], the Doctor had to defend his TARDIS when he landed at the same time as another time machine causing a crash. He thought that the people who ran the justice system didn't fully understand their inherited laws. He discovered that one of the former rulers controlled the justice system and that it was forced into slavery. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Trial of a Time Machine (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor decided to travel to the 30th century to shut down the [[Brotherhood of the Immanent Flesh]] for good, but suffered a devastating loss when Roz died in a battle. More aware of his mortality than ever, the Doctor continued to travel with a grieving Chris. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|So Vile a Sin (novel)}})

After returning [[Penelope Gate]] and [[Joel Mintz]] back to their own times, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Room With No Doors (novel)}}) the Doctor travelled on his own for a while, reuniting with [[Sarah Jane Smith]] in [[Hong Kong]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Bullet Time (novel)}}) and [[Ace]] in [[Paris]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Set Piece (novel)}}) After which, he finally dealt with the Logovore, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Death Sentences (short story)}}) delivered [[Edward Woodbourne]]'s letter to [[Mary Woodbourne|his wife]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Never Seen Cairo (short story)}}) and convinced [[Melissa (Spookasem)|Melissa]] to reject the Serpent Ride.

On his final adventure as Time's Champion, the Doctor returned to his ancestral home; the [[House of Lungbarrow]]. There, he was accused of murder, and was forced to uncovered dark secrets from his own past in a bid to clear his name. Tasked with transporting {{Roberts}}'s ashes from Skaro to Gallifrey, the Doctor bid farewell to Ace, [[Romana]], [[Leela]] and two versions of [[K9]], as well as Chris, who had decided to stay behind, choosing to continue his travels alone using [[Chris Cwej's Time Ring|a Time Ring]] given to him by [[Romana II]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Lungbarrow (novel)}})
 
Instead of heading straight for [[Skaro]], the Doctor, feeling nostalgic, travelled to [[1979]] Paris, where he watched the [[Fourth Doctor]] and [[Romana II|Romana]] do battle with [[Scaroth]], retrieving a sketch of Romana that his fourth incarnation had thrown away while doing so. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Notre Dame du Temps (short story)}})
 
==== New adventures with Ace ====
{{section stub|Info from ''[[Critical Mass (audio story)|Critical Mass]]'' & ''[[Police and Shreeves (audio story)|Police and Shreeves]]'' needs to be added}}In one possible future, Ace would continue travelling with the Doctor and other companions for a long time. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|At Childhood's End (novel)}}) Alerted of the presence of the [[Fearmonger]] on Earth, the Doctor and Ace travelled back to [[Perivale]], arriving some time after [[Stephen Keyser]] and [[Walter Jacobs]]' attempt to [[Sherilyn Harper]]'s life. After talking with Stephen in a mental ward, the Doctor and Ace tracked down Walter, and persuaded him to call off another attempt against Harper; they believed his story about Harper being the host of the Fearmonger. The Doctor built a trap to draw the Fearmonger out of Harper; however, even when he managed to trap Harper, it still didn't come out. In the end, the Doctor realised the Fearmonger travelled from host to host, and eventually passed from Walter to Ace. After revealing the truth behind the attacks against Harper (which she staged herself), the Doctor was threatened by Ace (who thought he was possessed) with a bomb, but was able to calm her down. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Fearmonger (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor tasked Ace with preventing time travelling criminal duo [[Harmonious 14 Zink]] and his wife [[1V Magda]] from interfering with established history on the planet [[Erratoon]]. On this mission she encountered, and believed she had befriended, the living [[Core to the Key to Time|Tracer]] who would later go by the name [[Zara (The Judgement of Isskar)|Zara]], but was betrayed by her, losing a great deal of her memories in the process. Seeing that she had been successful, the Doctor arrived to pick her up, intending to restore her memories using the TARDIS. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Prisoner's Dilemma (audio story)}})
 
[[File:The Armageddon Gambit TARDIS.jpg|thumb|left|The Doctor finds an emergency beacon from Group Captain Gilmore. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Armageddon Gambit (comic story)}})]]
The Doctor and Ace vanquished six war fleets of the [[Kla-Shi-Kel]] and disabled their communications network in the span of three days. They lured the remaining Kla-Shi-Kel out of their bunker to be arrested by the authorities instead of destroying them completely, giving them a second chance. The two relaxed on another planet, where they roasted marshmallows and watched the [[Kepler alignment]], only to be interrupted by the [[Cloister Bell]]. In the TARDIS, the Doctor found an emergency beacon from Group Captain [[Ian Gilmore]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Armageddon Gambit (comic story)}})
 
Travelling to [[May]] [[1967]], where [[Rachel Jensen]] and [[Allison Williams]] had found five-thousand-year-old cave paintings of a spaceship in [[South Austalia]], the Doctor and Ace rendezvoused with Group Captain Gilmore in Oxford, were briefed on the mission, and travelled to [[Maralinga]] via the TARDIS. After they, the [[Intrusion Counter-Measures Group]], the Australian military, an [[Aboriginal]] man named [[Daku Darana]], and peace activist [[Jonquil Sharrow]] found and investigated the spaceship, a snake-like alien was found on Mr [[Pendry]], which killed him when it was removed with a machete.
 
After Rachel and Allison were kidnapped by Delafield and Sharron, the Doctor and company escaped the coming sandstorm to Edinburgh. They returned to the Outback and held a funeral for the dead [[Markarian]] on the sacred ground. Living Markarians appeared and Ace volunteered to interface with them, where she learned they were "Feds" who traced some "[[Crook]]s" to Earth millennia prior. The Crooks hid their ships in volcanoes and assimilated into human populations.
 
Ace informed the Doctor of what she learned, including that Delafield and Jonquil were Crooks who manipulated their way to find their ship in the Outback. She also learned that Rachel and Allison were taken to the island of [[San Benedicto]] where the Crooks had one of their ships operational. The Doctor and company made their way to the island, where they rescued Rachel and Allison with the help of knockout gas. Group Captain Gilmore was trapped in the Crook's ship with a Markarian, which kept him in stasis until he was discovered by astronauts in [[2029]]. The Doctor and Ace returned him to 1967 and the surviving Markarians to their home planet. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Operation Volcano (comic story)}})
 
After reading a book on Roman history which mentioned a mysterious advisor to [[Julius Caesar]], the Doctor and Ace went to northern [[Italy]] in the year [[BC#1st century B.C.|49 BC]] to ensure that he crossed the [[Rubicon]], which was a [[fixed point in time]]. However, {{Ainley}}, who was the aforementioned advisor, had seemingly poisoned Caeser. However, Caesar only pretended to take the poison, after being advised by a messenger that was sent by the Doctor. Caesar learned of the Master's plan to usurp him, cast him out, and thanked the Doctor for his warning. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Crossing the Rubicon (comic story)}})
 
Recalling that [[Edvard Munch]]'s ''[[The Scream]]'' was about to disappear under "mysterious circumstances", the Doctor decided to travel to the gallery housing it, planning to add it to his personal collection, as it was part of established history that it would be stolen. He and Ace arrived on [[Duchamp 331]], a barren, dusty planet, and discovered the painting had been inhabited by the [[Warp Core]], which was animating the planet's dust. Whilst investigating, they encountered [[Bev Tarrant]] and discovered the Master had been reverted to the decaying form by the Warp Core. The Master planned to unleash the Warp Core on the universe as an animated planet, but the Doctor, Ace and Bev managed to stop him. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Dust Breeding (audio story)}})
 
Aiming to get to [[Edinburgh]] for [[Hogmanay]], the Doctor landed near [[Ben MacDui]]. He encountered [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]] who told him he was investigating on behalf of [[UNIT]]. He went up the mountain to find with the Brigadier and his scientific experts. He was worried at what was in the mountain and was determined to get to shelter. He thought that people should leave this mountain alone. He warned Ace about looking at the face of the [[Grey Man (The Grey Man of the Mountain)|Grey Man]]. He saw that the Grey Man was a proto-human and lived in a separate world that was accidentally at the top of the summit. He vowed to cut the worlds apart to save both species. ([[AUDIO]]:{{cs|The Grey Man of the Mountain (audio story)}})
 
After arriving at [[Colditz Castle]] during the [[Second World War]], the Doctor was shot in the shoulder by [[Nazi]]s as the TARDIS was confiscated, and Ace was captured. Surviving his wounds, the Doctor was questioned over his strange biology and unusual possessions, and was placed in [[Elizabeth Klein]]'s custody after handing her his TARDIS key to ensure Ace's safety, though he failed to understand how Klein knew about his TARDIS. It soon transpired that Klein originated from a divergent timeline, where the Germans had won the war, the Doctor's TARDIS was discovered and he was apparently killed, with Klein travelling to the Doctor's timeline to capture him so he could teach her to fully control the TARDIS.
 
Forced to cooperate for Ace's life, the Doctor discovered that the TARDIS in which Klein had arrived had dematerialised, forcing her to demand use of the TARDIS the Doctor and Ace had arrived in. Returning to Colditz Castle, the Doctor manipulated [[Kurtz]], a duty-bound officer, into exposing Klein, and prevented Klein's timeline from ever coming about by locating the CD-player Ace had left behind. Attempting to gain access to the TARDIS whilst it was dematerialising, Kurtz was torn apart on a molecular level, while Klein, now an anomaly, escaped. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Colditz (audio story)}})
 
Attempting to find somewhere quiet and peaceful for Ace to relax at after Colditz Castle, the Doctor brought her to [[Ibiza]], where a DJ called [[Gabriel (The Rapture)|Gabriel]], who believed that he was an angel, was working together with his brother, [[Jude (The Rapture)|Jude]], in a rave club. The Doctor and Ace discovered that the brothers were using powers from another dimension to raise an army out of the young people who came to party at their club, recruiting them to fight a war between their people and a militaristic race. The Doctor stopped Gabriel, but was unable to prevent his death, prompting a traumatised Jude to expedite their plans, and the Doctor was forced to stop him as well, while Ace developed a bond with her previously unknown brother, [[Liam McShane]]. Though they spent several days getting acquainted, Ace decided her life was too complicated to add a brother to it, and departed with the Doctor. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Rapture (audio story)}})

On [[2021]] Earth, the Doctor and Ace investigated signs of alien technology in use at [[St Gart's Bankside Hospital]] in London. Whilst combating a [[Cyberman]] threat, they met [[Hex|Thomas Hector Schofield]], known as "Hex", a nurse working at the hospital, and the trio worked together to prevent a plot to create super-soldiers augmented with Cyber-technology. Following their adventure, Hex joined the Doctor and Ace in their travels. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Harvest (audio story)}})
 
The group went for breakfast on London's South Bank, where they soon discovered that both London and the TARDIS weren't real. Voyaging into the depths of the fake TARDIS, the Doctor found that he and his companions had been entrapped by a vortex predator. They eventually located the real TARDIS and escaped back into the real universe. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Six Impossible Things Before Breakfast (short story)}})
 
The Doctor, Ace and Hex landed on [[Uluru]] when it was travelling through space. Wondering why it was there, they encountered a [[Galyari]] trade team. The Doctor succumbed to the dreaming and discovered why Uluru was in space. He managed to get the population out of the dreamscape to help pilot Uluru to its destination. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Dreamtime (audio story)}})
 
After arriving on [[Colony 34]], the Doctor discovered a conspiracy involving the government and decided to run for president. The reigning leader was trying to avoid an election for fear of losing, and was using his power to stage terrorist attacks and discredit the parties that stood against him. After faking his own death, Ace and Hex helped the Doctor to expose everything the government had been trying to keep secret, including the deaths of colonists whose bodies were used as fuel. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|LIVE 34 (audio story)}})
 
The TARDIS crew landed on the ''[[Isabella (The Flying Dutchman)|Isabella]]'' only to discover it empty, and decided to explore. Discovering that the crew was scared, the Doctor was curious as to why. He learnt that [[Unsworth]] had used the crew of the ''[[Henrietta (The Flying Dutchman)|Henrietta]]'' to spook his current crew in order to lead a munity. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Flying Dutchman (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor argued with Ace and Hex after they landed in a house in [[Norfolk]] thinking that something was wrong with them. He tried to calm Ace down when she thought the house was after them. He worked out that the [[Craw]] was active in the house. He later learnt that [[George Colbert]] had murdered the house's original inhabitants and informed the police. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Displaced (audio story)}})
 
Taking Ace into a cabin after she fell into a [[lake]], the TARDIS trio witnessed a series of deaths amongst the group of academics staying there, and discovered that they were experimenting with time with a device they called "the [[Bartholomew transactor]]", so they could send a message back to warn their past selves about misdiagnosing a deceased girl named [[Edie O'Neil]]. However, the interference with the timeline caused Edie to be transformed into a zombie-like state of limbo, and the Doctor realised that the misdiagnosis had never been genuine, and that the whole series of events were part of a time experiment conducted by [[Major]] [[Dickens (Night Thoughts)|Dickens]].
 
Intending to correct the academics' mistake, the Doctor travelled back to undo the damage, but was unable to bring himself to kill the child, allowing the zombie-Edie to come into being. Returning to the present, the Doctor discovered that the academics were now all deceased, and, theorising that the zombie-Edie was responsible for the deaths, keeping herself "alive" through her own use of the transactor, the Doctor, Ace and Hex departed. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Night Thoughts (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor sent Ace and Hex to [[Monte Carlo]] in [[1969]] to recover the diamond known as the [[Veiled Leopard]], ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Veiled Leopard (audio story)}}) while he visited [[Evelyn Smythe]] on [[Világ]], so he could tell her that he was travelling with [[Cassandra Schofield]]'s son. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Thicker Than Water (audio story)}})
 
Landing in [[Drogheda]] during the siege of [[Oliver Cromwell]], the Doctor looked after a heavily pregnant [[Mary Fitzgerald]] who wanted to get to her brother-in-law, [[James Fitzgerald]], after the death of her husband, [[Kieran Fitzgerald]], in one of the battles. He had to deliver her child during a battle. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Settling (audio story)}})
 
The TARDIS brought the trio to [[Charnage Hospital]] during the [[First World War]]. The Doctor was drafted in to investigate a murder before it happened, and discovered that [[Brook (No Man's Land)|Brook]] was creating super-soldiers for [[the Forge]] using psychological methods. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|No Man's Land (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor piloted the TARDIS to [[Paris]], [[1922]] as he wanted inspiration and relaxation. After learning that a famous art collect wasn't in Paris he grew suspicious and later when a famous bookshelf changed its name. He and Hex saw a strange map inside it. He discussed his findings with [[Dora Muse]] who told her about the critic reviews. He discovered that [[Panda]] was behind this and then thought that [[Iris Wildthyme]] was manipulating time. He offered to Panda that they all needed to help her after he broke into the [[Celestial Omnibus]]. Iris declared war on him. He brought all the artists back to Paris and then discussed things with Iris. Iris told him the truth of what she was doing there. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Muse of Fire (audio story)}})
 
The trio arrived on [[Nocturne (planet)|Nocturne]], a favourite destination of the Doctor's, and became embroiled in a mystery involving the murders of members of the artistic community. The Doctor discovered that a student named [[Lomas Alloran]] had inadvertently unleashed a creature of sound and emotion through the forgotten science of [[bioharmonics]]. After defeating the creature, the Doctor bid goodbye to his friends in the commune. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Nocturne (audio story)}})
 
He was once observed by his predecessor being imprisoned, but Ace and Hex rescued him. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The 100 Days of the Doctor (audio story)}})
 
With Ace and Hex desiring a holiday after their recent adventures, the Doctor took them to a festival on [[Tuin]]. There he planned to stop a millennia long war between the people of Tuin's moons, by starting an ancient ritual of a wedding. In this wedding he became the Dark Husband, who was to be married to Ace, as the shining bride (due to rescuing him from being burnt at the stake). Learning the true meaning of the wedding, he pulled out, which angered [[Ori]] and [[Irit]], so Hex decided to become the Dark Husband instead. They then discovered that the planet was sentient and that it wanted to reunite the two species. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Dark Husband (audio story)}})
 
[[File:FortyFive artwork.jpg|thumb|right|The Doctor regards Ace and [[Hex]] in the [[TARDIS control room]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Forty-Five (audio anthology)|Forty-Five]]'')]]
The Doctor, Ace and Hex arrived in [[Egypt]], [[1902]], and encountered a young [[Time Lady]] named [[Jane Templeton]]. Having been stranded on Earth for centuries trying to find her TARDIS, she had accidentally transgressed the laws of time by becoming a god to the locals. The Doctor informed Jane that her TARDIS was dying, prompting her to fly it into the sun, rejecting the Doctor's offer to help save her life. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|False Gods (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor, Ace and Hex travelled to the island of [[Mendolovinia]] in [[33]] AD to help solve a code, but fell into a trap laid by [[the Order of Simplicity]]. The Doctor was infected with a virus that drained the intelligence from the [[brain]] to an IQ of forty-five, but managed to use the intellect of the primitives to free himself. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Order of Simplicity (audio story)}})
 
The TARDIS crew attempted to track down an alien artefact that controlled others into telling the truth. The Doctor and Hex followed [[Joey Carlisle]], the person who had stolen the artefact from the Forge, whilst Ace encountered a child version of her mother. Joey almost made the Doctor tell Hex the truth about Cassie. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Casualties of War (audio story)}})
 
The trio next landed in [[Antarctica]], where they encountered [[Nobody No-One]], a [[Word Lord]] from a dimension made out of language and communication. No-One followed them into a top secret facility and proceeded to cause chaos, until the Doctor captured him inside a book. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Word Lord (audio story)}})
 
After trying to fix something on the TARDIS console, the Doctor took Ace and Hex to [[Unity (planet)|Unity]]. The Doctor learnt from [[Loglan]] what happened there and he decided not to partake in the medical treatments there. He discovered that the planet was being exploited by [[Lindsay Wheeler]] and that it had started to break apart. He went with Ace and [[Malcolm Grove]] to try and solve the problem. He went into the machinery to redirect the psychic flows. His shadow self piloted the TARDIS back to him and they both tried to convince the planet not to destroy itself. Returning to the TARDIS, he had to avoid something landing nearby in the vortex, ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Shadow Planet (audio story)}}) making an emergency landing on [[Nirvana (planet)|Nirvana]] which was what was materialising in the vortex. He found the stones on the planet interesting and stole a lot of them as a legitimate scientific interest. He later went mountaineering with Ace, where they discovered a dead body in one of the caves. He thought some kind of temporal anomaly going on and discovered [[Karren]]'s tape recorder with a warning on it, and then a wall of messages in a lot of different languages. This helped the Doctor to recall why the TARDIS didn't like the planet; it was part of a Gallifreyan legend. The TARDIS dematerialised without Ace and Hex and the Doctor spent decades trying to find a way back to them. He managed to use the telepathic circuits to get a message to Ace in one of her dreams. He finally managed to locate them, but had to be careful because the planet was outside time and if he landed he would have killed the planet. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|World Apart (audio story)}})
 
===== Battling the Elder Gods =====
{{section stub|Info from ''[[Natalie's Diary (short story)|Natalie's Diary]]'' needs to be added}}Lured into the [[Celestial Toyroom]], the Doctor, Ace and Hex managed to aid a group of humans in defeating [[the Toymaker]], trapping him inside a ventriloquist's doll. In order to prevent him from ever resurfacing, the Doctor arranged for Ace and Hex to attend to the running of a mock-up sanatorium where he and the various other guests were kept unaware of their true situation. Despite their best efforts, the Doctor uncovered his own plan and the Toymaker resurfaced and managed to trick the humans into playing against him for their greatest desires in a bid to reassert himself as controller of the Toyroom. However, [[Swapnil Khan]], the final player, managed to trap him in a stalemate, enabling his daughter, [[Queenie Glasscock]], and the three travellers to escape the Toyroom and return to the real world, ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Magic Mousetrap (audio story)}}) though the Doctor was now aware of Fenric's impending return, having found a chess set in the sanatorium. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Gods and Monsters (audio story)}})
 
Landing on [[Bliss (planet)|Bliss]], a jungle planet under Dalek attack, the Doctor set out to ensure that an atrocity which was due to be committed in the coming hours would happen. While Ace and Hex aided the base personnel in a battle with the Daleks, the Doctor discovered that [[Toshio Shimura]], a local professor, had combined larvae and [[piranha locust]] [[DNA]] to create a new species called the [[Kiseibya]], created to be the natural predator of the Daleks. But, the Kiseibya, after decimating the Dalek forces, quickly became uncontrollable, and the Doctor planned to blow up the base and slaughter the Kiseibya himself, but [[Beth Stokes]], a former [[prisoner]] of the Daleks, chose to take his place, staying behind to finish the job. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Enemy of the Daleks (audio story)}})
 
The TARDIS next landed in the [[Crimea]] in [[1854]], where Hex spent a considerable period recovering from the trauma he had experienced on Bliss by providing assistance to the wounded, where he met his idol, [[Florence Nightingale]]. Discovering that they were already caught up in events prior to their arrival, the Doctor and Ace travelled back a short period of time, only to be accused of being spies. Whilst they attempted to convince their captors otherwise, they witnessed the exterior shell of the TARDIS shatter after the [[HADS]] was activated by a direct hit from cannon fire, leaving them stranded. After the TARDIS reformed its shell without its regular colouration, the Doctor and Ace hurried to pick up Hex. Arriving just too late to prevent Hex from being shot, the Doctor set a course for [[St Gart's Bankside Hospital]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Angel of Scutari (audio story)}})
 
Arriving in [[2025]], the Doctor managed to successfully perform surgery on Hex, saving his life. Realising that London was under quarantine, he was captured by [[William Abberton|Nimrod]] and [[the Forge]] and forced to find a solution to stop the infection spreading. Nimrod told Hex that. After Cassie was resurrected, the Doctor convinced her to attack Nimrod by telling her of all the important mile stones in Hex's life that Nimrod took from her. The Doctor admitted to Hex that he was extremely proud of him, but Hex, having been told by Nimrod that the Doctor had been witness to his mother's death, decided to depart the TARDIS in anger. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Project Destiny (audio story)|Project: Destiny}})
 
[[File: Centre Fold A Death in the Family.jpg|thumb|left|The Doctor confronts [[Nobody No-One]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|A Death in the Family (audio story)}})]]Tracking down a Time Lord casket which Forge agent [[Lysandra Aristedes]] claimed was present within the Forge Vault, the Doctor discovered that it contained the unconscious body of an older version of himself. Witnessing his future self warning them about the return of [[Nobody No-One]], he was forced to sacrifice himself to stop No-One. Resurrected by Ace, with help from his future self, the Doctor defeated No-One with the help of [[Evelyn Smythe]], who convinced Hex that it wasn't the Doctor's fault that his mother died. After witnessing Evelyn's death, Hex decided to rejoin the TARDIS crew. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|A Death in the Family (audio story)}})
 
Shortly afterwards, the TARDIS landed in [[1930s]] [[Alaska (state)|Alaska]], with the Doctor intending to investigate a strange ice formation. The travellers soon met an expedition team looking for an ancient chamber containing "horrors from the dawn of time", and the Doctor and Ace became separated from Hex and the expedition team. Presumed dead, the pair arrived at what appeared to be an island psychiatric facility and met [[CP Doveday]], a poet who claimed to live on the island, who took them to the person in charge. There, the Doctor learned that the entire facility was in fact a prison for three dormant [[Karnas'koi]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Lurkers at Sunlight's Edge (audio story)}})
 
Growing a new TARDIS with a black [[police box]] exterior, the Doctor left Hex and Ace, and began travelling on his own for a while, ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Black and White (audio story)}}) sending the "White TARDIS" to an [[alternative timeline]] [[1989]] to test his companions. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Protect and Survive (audio story)}})
 
He tested the navigation circuits of the black TARDIS by first travelling to the [[Lorelei]] on [[Kaldor]]. He met with [[Liv Chenka]] who he convinced to do more investigation into the death of [[Tal Karus]]. He activated the [[Kaldor android|Voc Robots]]. He discovered that the robots weren't killing the crew this time, it was [[Farel]] as he wanted to discredit the robots. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Robophobia (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor thought that the black TARDIS was miss behaving when he apparently arrived in [[16th century]] [[Florence]]. When he encountered [[Garilund]], she told him that he was at a [[Poldagon]] science centre and that they were experimenting on human duplicates. He later had to deal with the [[First Nuncio]] who wanted to use the facility to create biologically superior super soldiers for their war. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Doomsday Quatrain (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor landed at a military base at [[Fulton Down]] and discovered that they were experimenting with people's fears as part of the [[Blue Fire Project]]. The project involved an [[elder god]] called the [[Mi'en Kalarash]] who was manipulating the nightmares of the personnel. One of the personnel was [[Sally Morgan]] who decided to join the Doctor on his adventures. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|House of Blue Fire (audio story)}})
 
He later recruited [[Lysandra Aristedes]] to the cause, sending her and Sally on missions to stop the elder gods. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Black and White (audio story)}}) On one such mission, he sent Lysandra and Sally into Lysandra's past at the Forge whilst transporting an alien. The Doctor wanted to take [[Derleth]] from the Forge as they planned to clone him to use as a weapon. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Project Nirvana (audio story)|Project: Nirvana}})
 
Ace and Hex later discovered that he had left them in the TARDIS and that he set a trap for [[Peggy (Elder God)|Peggy]] and [[Albert (Elder God)|Albert]] in an alternative version of [[1989]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Protect and Survive (audio story)}})
 
The Black TARDIS arrived in [[5th century]] [[Denmark]], where the Doctor became stranded when the Black TARDIS, containing Sally and Lysandra, departed for an alternative 1989. The Doctor proceeded to leave clues for Ace, Hex, Sally and Lysandra to restore the original TARDIS and destroy the Black TARDIS by retrieving an artefact called [[Weyland's shield]], before being kidnapped ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Black and White (audio story)}}) by Fenric and taken to a [[pocket universe]].
 
Freed by his friends after they deciphered his instructions, the Doctor learned that Fenric was playing a game against another Elder God called [[Weyland]] for control of Weyland's shield, which could grant omnipotence to an Elder God, and that they had been used as pawns by Weyland to help him win the game against Fenric. As he was destined to become the quintessential pawn in Weyland's plan, Hex managed to banish Weyland and stop the game, but became possessed by Fenric, and thus sacrificed himself to prevent Fenric from permanently gaining power over him. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Gods and Monsters (audio story)}})
 
Seeming unfazed by Hex's apparent death, the Doctor returned Lysandra and Sally to their homes, and intended to take Ace somewhere to take her mind off of Hex, but the grieving Ace demanded the Doctor tell [[Hilda Schofield|Hex's grandmother]] what happened to him. Landing in [[2020s]] [[Liverpool]], the Doctor informed Hilda Schofield of her grandson's death and organised a wake for him.
 
However, the Doctor soon found Hex to be alive and acting as a local crime lord named "Hector Thomas", having had his memories removed by an [[Elemental (Afterlife)|Elemental]] named [[Koloon]] after Hex made a deal to be removed from the Elder Gods' realm and returned to Liverpool. From this revelation, the Doctor managed to locate Koloon, but was unable to prevent Hex's memories from being destroyed. Enraged, the Doctor banished Koloon back to realm of the Elder Gods with a warning to fear him, and was forced by Ace, who was unwilling to accept the death of Hex or the loss of his memories, to take Hector with them in the TARDIS. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Afterlife (audio story)}})
 
Taking Hector on a trip round the universe's beauty spots, the Doctor became worried when Hector started to pilot the TARDIS. The Doctor realised that Hector was infected by [[The Swarm (The Invisible Enemy)|the Swarm]], and had piloted them to [[Titan Base]] in [[4920]]. He found out that the Swarm was created from the [[Saturnian plague]]. After making sure that his own personal history remained intact and the virus was released, the Doctor and Ace were knocked out by Hector. Hector then piloted the TARDIS two centuries into the future, where the Doctor learnt that [[the Nucleus]] of the Swarm had invaded the [[Hypernet]] in the interim. He entered the Hypernet with Ace to destroy the nucleus, but warned her that if they died in the Hypernet she would become braindead in the real world. With his initial plan failed, the Doctor used a now immune Hector to disrupt the Nucleus focus long enough for Ace to destroy the body. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Revenge of the Swarm (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor took Hector to [[Athens]] in [[BC#5th century B.C.|5th century BC]] to recuperate. He decided to help [[Aristophanes]] to put on a play. When he heard that there was a strange plague, he started to investigate the cause. He discovered that [[Tyrgius]] was an alien beatle and that [[Cleon]] had damaged his disguise. He was later arrested for treason and placed in prison. He warned Hector of using the mask when he claimed to be Dionysus. Using his knowledge of Athenian law he put his case against the Athenian jury to plead for their release and was successful. Later, he had to make a version of Tyrgius' mask to stop Cleon's controlled army. He used Aristophenes' play to stop the war. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Mask of Tragedy (audio story)}})
 
At Hector's request the Doctor took him back to Liverpool. The TARDIS notified him of something odd going on and the Doctor traced it to [[Rufus Stone]]. When he went to accost Rufus, [[Praska]] transmated to her flagship, as she knew he could stop their plans. The Doctor managed to escape the craft and floated down to Liverpool using his umbrella. He protected the TARDIS when the [[Hirudine]] tried to attack it. Hector later helped him recover, but the Doctor realised some of Hex's memories were coming through. He sensed another force at work in Liverpool and learned that it was [[To'Koth]]. The Doctor helped To'Koth get back to his own realm to die, though it caused him and the TARDIS tremendous pain. Ace helped him keep sane when this happened. With his last breath, To'Koth brokered a truce between the Doctor and the Elder gods. The Doctor left Hex with Sally Morgan but visited 15 years later and saw Hex's daughter [[Cassandra (Signs and Wonders)|Cassandra]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Signs and Wonders (audio story)}})
 
===== Reunited with Mel =====
After the Doctor offered Ace the chance to practice piloting the TARDIS, she inadvertently materialised inside a facility run by the [[Porcian]] [[Chimbly]]. Discovering that they were being manipulated through the use of a captured [[Resurrectionist]], the Doctor tricked Chimbly into firing on the cage apparatus imprisoning it, simultaneously freeing the tortured creature and the race he had enslaved from its psychic control. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|You Are the Doctor (audio story)}})
 
After visiting a seemingly haunted house where he solved a murder mystery, ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Come Die With Me (audio story)}}) and becoming involved in a heist in the [[Grand Betelgeuse Hotel]], ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Grand Betelgeuse Hotel (audio story)}}) the Doctor managed to stop a [[Galparian]] plot to eradicate all life on Earth in order to sell the planet. Realising that their recent trips had all been attempts by the TARDIS to track down "an old friend", the Doctor offered to give it a little help. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Dead to the World (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor helped the TARDIS locate Mel on [[Ricosta]]. He was captured by [[Nathan Later|Lefty Lonnigan]] when he trespassed on his land and was then sent to the [[Speravore]]s to be fed on, making them think he was Lefty. He realised that he was being used in a con. He later tried to negotiate for the planet's release. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|A Life of Crime (audio story)}})
 
Shortly afterwards, the Doctor brought his friends to [[Spain]] but unwittingly during the [[Spanish Civil War]]. He encountered [[Juan Romero]] and helped look after his men after a bombing raid. Travelling to the nearest town, he discovered that there was a [[God Seed]] nearby and vowed to destroy it. However, it took energy from the TARDIS which worried the Doctor. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Fiesta of the Damned (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor landed on [[Prosper]] again, but during a war 100 years later. He was appalled at what had happened in his absence and that the mineral named after him had caused this. He investigated what was happening and discovered that [[Alonso (Maker of Demons)|Alonso]] was also the Mogera leader. Alonso told him that he was practising [[eugenics]] to create a perfect colony and to kill the Mogera. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Maker of Demons (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor wanted to visit [[Dashrah]] but had to land on [[Parking (planet)|Parking]] in order to get there. [[Kempton]] arrested him for a parking violation. Kempton stole his TARDIS key and later found that the TARDIS was missing. He discovered that there was a terrorist cell [[Free Parker]]s and helped the [[tribe of the lost]] to locate them with Ace's help. He thought something more sinister at work. Kempton brought him to the fable first ship of the tribe. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The High Price of Parking (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor landed in a shipbuilding yard, shortly after a murder. He had traced an alien signal as he landed and thought that it was the murderer. When digital technology started to blow up in the presence of Mel, he managed to cure her by taking her through the Eorgm's gate. He learnt that the Eorgm couldn't stand digital technology and found a way to diminish their power so that he could stop their engine. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Blood Furnace (audio story)}})
 
He decided to deal with some unfinished business. He went to the Silurian parliament in [[2085]] to negotiate, after the attempt by [[Icthar]] the previous year. He learnt from Mel that the Silurians wanted to provoke nuclear war. Ace didn't trust his plans and locked him up. The Doctor told them of a time in the future where both races could co-exist after the surface was ravaged by solar flares. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Silurian Candidate (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor discovered a time ripple and went to investigate it, leaving Ace in [[1961]] while he went with Mel to [[2017]]. He became concerned when Mel started to think about an alternative history. This was greater worsened when there was a mission to Mars. He was arrested by [[Marsden (Red Planets)|Marsden]] for making a fuss about the wrong history. He was later briefed by [[Sokolov]] about the Mars mission and managed to escape from him in an explosion. The started to worry that he, Ace and Mel might cease to exist. He went with Mel to the base on Mars and discovered a message from the future. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Red Planets (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor detected some strange signals and traced them to a tower block in the North of England which was hidden behind a perception filter. He was saved from "Zombies" by [[Ruck]], who told him about the situation in the tower block. The Doctor encountered [[Isobel (The Dispossessed)|Isobel]] who told him about [[Arkallax]] and his plans. The Doctor realised that Arkallax was the building. He became possessed by Arkallax but was able to fight with him for control. He saved Ace and [[Jan (The Dispossessed)|Jan]] when Arkallax made them fall to their death. After defeating Arkallax, Mel knocked him out and stole the TARDIS. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Dispossessed (audio story)}})
 
He was placed in a prison but was broken out by [[Narvin]] who informed him that [[Josiah W. Dogbolter]] was the president of the solar system. The Doctor told Narvin that there must be a simple solution to stop Dogbolter's manipulation than the [[Celestial Intervention Agency]]'s more drastic solutions. [[Hob]] used the [[Quantum Possibility Engine]] to creat an alternate universe where the Doctor was a cleaner. In this universe, the Doctor corrected Narvin's equations and was fired for it. Dogbolter changed time again so that he was a public enemy instead. After Mel changed the timeline to make the Doctor well known, and he manipulated the media perception of the [[Krasi]] so that they would leave. He chastised Mel for her grand plans and not telling him about the debt, but ultimately forgave her. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Quantum Possibility Engine (audio story)}})
 
==== Ace on Gallifrey ====
In one [[possible future|possible outcome]], Ace started a life as a Time Lord on [[Gallifrey]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|At Childhood's End (novel)}})
 
One account showed Ace winding up on a well-populated Gallifrey, being educated to become a Time Lord and joinign the [[Celestial Intervention Agency]]. Ace couldn't remember precise circumstances of her going to Gallifrey but knew it involved the Doctor. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Intervention Earth (audio story)}})
 
===== Antimony, battle with Tannis, and apparent death =====
====== The oaths of Micen Island ======
[[File:The Doctor and the Minister in At the Temple of the Fourth.png|thumb|right|The Doctor and [[First Minister of Chance|the Minister]] meet at the [[Temple of the Fourth]]. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=At the Temple of the Fourth}})]]In [[the Doctor's reality (Death Comes to Time)|one version of history]], the [[Time Lord]]s were all but wiped out, though [[Gallifrey]] remained intact. The Seventh Doctor was one of a few survivors, who, regretful of how they had misused their powers, made a pact on [[Micen Island]] at the [[Temple of the Fourth]] to keep watch on one another, and to adhere by certain oaths regulating when to use [[Power of Creation|their power]]. One of their provisions was that they must never travel alone, always keeping a mortal [[companion]]. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=At the Temple of the Fourth}})
 
====== Adventures with Ace and Antimony ======
[[File:Death_comes_to_time_01.jpg|thumb|left|The Doctor and [[Antimony]] in the [[TARDIS control room (The Chameleon Factor)|TARDIS control room]]. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=At the Temple of the Fourth}})]]Though he was still travelling with Ace, the Doctor, increasingly weary of how all his companions died or left him, built an [[android]] companion for himself, fast enough to dodge bullets. He named the boy [[Antimony (Death Comes to Time)|Antimony]] and saw him as a [[son]], but didn't tell him of his true origins. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=No Child of Earth}}) Together, the Doctor, Ace and Antimony worked to protect the citizens of [[Santiny]] from the brutal [[Canisian]] forces led by [[General]] [[Tannis]].
 
They first landed on Tannis's own ship, where Ace "wandered off" and the other two were compelled to leave, landing on the ground and helping to free a group of officials held prisoner by the Canisians, dropping them off in a nearby forest to start a resistance movement under [[Senator]] [[Hawk (Death Comes to Time)|Hawk]]. Before he could go and look for Ace, the Doctor received a summons to meet with another of the surviving Renegades, his old friend [[First Minister of Chance|the Minister of Chance]], at the Temple of the Fourth. There, the Minister informed him of the mysterious deaths of "the [[Saint]]s", retired Time Lords [[Antenor]] and [[Valentine (Death Comes to Time)|Valentine]], on [[Earth]], and asked him to take over the investigation with Antimony, while the Minister would take over on Santiny. Meanwhile, Ace was rescued from the Canisian ship by [[Castellan]] [[Casmus]], another surviving Time Lord and old friend of the Doctor's, who took her to the deserted, but idyllic [[Gallifrey]]. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=At the Temple of the Fourth}})
 
====== Final travels with Antimony ======
[[File:The Doctor and Speedwell.png|thumb|right|The Doctor and [[Speedwell]] on [[Earth]]. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=Planet of Blood}})]]On Earth, the Doctor and Antimony, assisted by the human police officer [[Speedwell]], discovered that the Saints had been murdered by a pair of [[vampire]] [[assassin]]s, [[Nessican]] and [[Cain (Death Comes to Time)|Cain]], seemingly to keep them quiet about [[temporal distortion]]s they had been studying. The Doctor recognised these distortions as the side-effects of a Time Lord breaking their oath and misusing their power to manipulate [[time]]. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=Planet of Blood}})
 
[[File:Seventh Doctor holding baby.png|thumb|left|The Doctor returns [[Bedloe's second child]] to [[Bedloe|him]]. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=No Child of Earth}})]]The Doctor and Antimony returned to Santiny, where they discovered that General Tannis had functionally deposed [[Premier]] [[Bedloe]] by taking [[Bedloe's second child|his surviving child]] hostage. They tried to induce Bedloe to fight back against Tannis, finding and rescuing the child, but Tannis headed them off at the meeting point. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=The Prisoner}}) Unmasking himself as another Time Lord, Tannis revealed Antimony's true nature as an android to him, then [[murder]]ed him in front of the distraught, helpless Doctor before leaving in [[Tannis's TARDIS|his own disguised TARDIS]]. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=No Child of Earth}})
 
====== Final stand ======
{{main|T-Time}}
[[File:Seventh Doctor in the caves of Gallifrey.png|thumb|right|The Doctor visits [[the Kingmaker]] under [[Mount Plutarch]] for the last time. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=Death Comes to Time}})]]The grief-stricken Doctor returned alone to Gallifrey and met with [[the Kingmaker]], begging her to intervene against Tannis. She insisted that she had no authority to act against Tannis, who had broken no [[Laws of Time]], and revealed to the Doctor that the distortions were the work of the Minister of Chance, instead. She ordered him to use his powers to destroy the Minister, but the Doctor pledged to find another way. On his way out of the Kingmaker's cave, he was reunited with [[Ace]], whom Casmus had trained as a Time Lord, only for her to return from [[Anima Persis]] to find Casmus dead, murdered by Tannis. Realising that Tannis would now try to [[Canisian invasion|invade the Earth]] based on Nessican's intelligence, the Doctor told Ace to return there to give [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart|the Brigadier]]'s [[UNIT|forces]] forewarning and advice on how to defeat the Canisians with their own tech.
 
Meanwhile, the Doctor went to [[Luria]] on [[Santiny]] and found the unstable Minister sulking on a [[mountain]] after using his powers to wipe out the entire Canisian ground force. He initially attempted to simply talk the Minister down from his insanity; when this failed, he used his powers [[TARDIS revocation|revoked]] the [[Minister of Chance's TARDIS|Minister's TARDIS]], ordering the now-marooned, regretful Time Lord to remain on Santiny and "face himself".
 
[[File:The Doctor and Tannis are destroyed.png|thumb|left|The Doctor destroys himself and [[Tannis]] in front of [[Stonehenge]]. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=Death Comes to Time}})]]
The Doctor returned to Earth, where the Canisian forces, who had landed on [[Salisbury Plain]], were in complete disarray. He sought out Tannis, whom he found trying to kill Ace near [[Stonehenge]]. The Doctor surprised Tannis by openly using his powers to force Tannis to let Ace go. Despite Ace's confused protests, the Doctor then echoed Casmus's sentiments that the Time Lords no longer had a place in the universe, even ones like him. After a final speech outlining this and saying goodbye to Ace, he used his power to seemingly wipe himself and Tannis from existence, ignoring Tannis's warning that this would "disrupt the course of time" and the he "would die too"; the Doctor's final words before the conflagration were a cryptic "I've been dead before". ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=Death Comes to Time}})
{{quote|[[Time Lord|We]] don't have any place in this future, [[Tannis]]. It's ''their'' universe now. We can't walk amongst them — we never really could.

They don't need our guidance any more, and they ''won't'' put up with your force. (…) I think… I'm tired. I'm ''tired'', [[Ace]]. (…) Oh, come on, Tannis — if I just let you kill me, I couldn't live with myself. But Time must be left to its own devices. But you see, Tannis, I ''am'' one of those devices. I ''am'' the course of Time. ''I am a God of the Fourth.'' Now… die.|The Seventh Doctor's apparent final speech. ([[WC]]: "[[Death Comes to Time (webcast)|Death Comes to Time]]"}}
 
====== Possible survival in the new age ======
[[Ace]] failed to find the Doctor's body, with only his [[Seventh Doctor's umbrella|iconic umbrella]] being left behind. After announcing his death to [[the Brigadier]], Ace returned to [[the Kingmaker]]'s cave, where the mysterious woman formally inducted her as the first new Time Lord of this [[new age]]. However, upon hearing that no body had been found, the Kingmaker also cast doubt over whether the Doctor was truly, fully dead in the way Ace had assumed, noting that an [[idea]] couldn't be killed, and the Time Lords of old were more ideas than people. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=Death Comes to Time}})
 
====== Relationship to the Eighth Doctor's era ======
The Seventh dying on [[Salisbury Plain]] as the [[last of the Time Lords]], while still travelling with Ace, ([[WC]]: {{cs|Death Comes to Time (webcast)|namedep=Death Comes to Time}}) seemingly conflicted with the accounts of the [[Seventh Doctor's regeneration]] into the [[Eighth Doctor]] in [[1999]] [[San Francisco]] at a later point in his timeline when he was alone in the TARDIS, ([[TV]]: {{cite source|Doctor Who (TV story)}}) and with the fact that the Eighth Doctor would go on to interact with an intact [[Gallifrey]] and [[Time Lord]]s. ([[PROSE]]: {{cite source|The Eight Doctors (novel)}})
 
Indeed, after being exposed to [[anti-time]], the [[Eighth Doctor]] of [[positive-time universe|one reality where he interacted with Gallifrey]] saw an alternate reality where the [[Time Lord]]s had "terrible mind powers", ([[AUDIO]]: {{cite source|Zagreus (audio story)}}) matching the [[Power of Creation|mysterious powers]] which, in this account, Time Lords were said to inherently possess as "God[s] of the Fourth", despite being sworn never to use them. ([[WC]]: {{cite source|Death Comes to Time (webcast)}})
 
On the other hand, according to one account relevant to the [[Eighth Doctor]]'s life, the Doctor's parents [[Ulysses]] and [[Penelope Gate]] knew that [[Tannis]] was a future threat to [[Gallifrey]] which the Doctor would play a key role in defeating; ([[PROSE]]: {{cite source|The Gallifrey Chronicles (novel)}}) another account dealing with this same version of the Eighth Doctor acknowledged the [[Canisian invasion]] as a recent event. ([[PROSE]]: {{cite source|Trading Futures (novel)}}) During a later stay in San Francisco trying to heal the scar in time left by his [[regeneration]], the Eighth Doctor tried to call to the Time Lords for help, but his [[hypercube]] was intercepted by a [[Boy (Unnatural History)|youthful member]] of [[Faction Paradox]], which should have been impossible after the Doctor sent it directly to Gallifrey. When the Doctor demanded answers from the boy, he suggested that this may have been because due to [[War in Heaven|certain ongoing crises]], Gallifrey was being "destroyed and undestroyed" repeatedly, with the Eighth Doctor currently existing in a Gallifrey-less universe wthout even realising it. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Unnatural History (novel)}})
{{quote|Maybe there's no one home on Gallifrey. Maybe they all left. Or maybe the whole planet’s being destroyed, and undestroyed, and destroyed, and you just caught them at the wrong moment.|[[Boy (Unnatural History)|The boy]] ([[PROSE]]: [[Unnatural History (novel)|Unnatural History]])}}
 
===== Old friends reunited =====
{{section stub|Info from ''[[Many Happy Returns (audio story)|Many Happy Returns]]'' & ''[[Evitability (short story)|Evitability]]'' needs to be added}}
 
Having been informed that Ace had left the Academy to reach Skaro with an [[Omega device]] in an attempt to destroy the [[Dalek]]s, the Doctor tried to contact Benny on [[Arviem 2]], a planet ruled by a scientific dictatorship. As soon as he arrived, however, he was drugged by [[Renk Van Magnastein]], a nightclub's owner, to whom Benny confided having made up a fake account of the planet's history, to save an ancient civilisation from being wiped out. Seeing the potential for business if Benny's lies were true, Renk drugged the Doctor and had him change Arviem 2's history to suit Benny's account; he then brought him back to the present, drunk and with no knowledge of what he did. The Doctor and Benny had to work together to try and discover what happened, all while being chased by agents of Arviem 2's government as dangerous individuals. When they eventually did discover the truth, Benny struck Renk out cold, and the Doctor brought him in the TARDIS to have "a nice little chat" with him, before telling Benny why he contacted her. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Revolution (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor followed Benny from afar as she searched for Ace. He witnessed her exploration of the remains of a [[Dalek time ship]] on the Moon of [[Adolin]], where the ship's conscience took the form of [[Claire Summerfield]], her mother, and delivered her a message from Ace, trying to dissuade everyone from going after her. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Good Night, Sweet Ladies (audio story)}})
 
As Benny arrived on Skaro, the Doctor tried to reach her, but due to Ace's incorrect use of the Omega device, the planet was encased in a [[time-lock]], and he was unable to do so. When Benny, despite Ace's warnings, lowered the time-barrier, ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Random Ghosts (audio story)}}) he was able to'' ''appear as a "ghost" for some time; in that form, he confessed Benny to be the cause of the Daleks' invasion of all the universe. The Doctor was finally able to land on Skaro and reunited with Benny, who told him the bits and pieces of Daleks' history she saw happening in the Dalek city, due to time being out of balance. She said she thought that the original Daleks hated themselves for their form, remembered what it was like to be the [[Kaled]]s, and wished one day to come out of their shells. The Doctor also told Benny that he sent her to look for Ace because he didn't dare to go to Skaro, and he was also curious to see if Ace succeeded in destroying the Daleks. When the last Dalek alive in the city captured Ace and went on to revive the Daleks on Skaro, the Doctor told Benny to give it the Omega device, and to remember what she saw. Benny understood and activated the device, allowing the Dalek to meet its future form, the [[Dalek Emperor]]. The Dalek was horrified by its future and shot him, prompting the Emperor to shoot in reverse; this caused a paradox which set time in the right order. The Doctor, Benny and Ace then departed together, effectively reuniting the "old gang", as Benny called them. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Lights of Skaro (audio story)}})
 
===== The return of Sutekh =====
The Doctor and Ace travelled to [[Egypt]] in [[1941]] to retrieve the [[Eye of Horus]], which would have imprisoned the ancient god [[Sutekh]]. However, when in the pyramid of Sutekh, the Doctor touched the Eye, and the power of the stone trapped him inside a [[sarcophagus]] in the vaults of the [[Osiris Bank]], where a cult of Sutekh's followers also kept prisoner the goddess [[Isis]]. When Ace and Benny delivered Isis with the power of the Eye, the Doctor was released too; but when Benny tried to reach to him, the Eye brought them both away to Ancient Egypt. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Vaults of Osiris (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor became chief architect for Pharaoh [[Hatshepsut]] and spent seven years building for her a string of obelisks, which were meant to channel the Osiran energy to assure an eternity of peace and prosperity to the world through the Eye of Horus. He also showed Hatshepsut the fabulous [[Punt|Land of Punt]], an Osiran colony, and helped her rule her country in peace and without conflict; in fact, he may have fallen in love with her, to the point of accepting her proposal of marriage. When Benny showed up, bringing the Eye of Horus with her, the Doctor tried to get it from her, but since he did not remember her (due to being transported through time), Benny refused to trust him. This gave Sutekh time to convince [[Thutmose]], Hatshepsut's son and successor, that his mother was plotting against him, and have him lead a conspiracy against her. Hatshepsut, Benny and the Doctor were buried alive, in two distinct tombs, and Thutmose placed the [[Eye of Sutekh]] in the obelisk, thus allowing Sutekh to use the energy of the obelisks to spread his "gift" of death through all history. Ace's arrival in the TARDIS permitted the Doctor and Benny to escape death; the Doctor (who recovered his memory) even managed to release Hatshepsut from her grave and bring her once again to Punt, before leaving in an attempt to stop Sutekh. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Eye of Horus (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor tricked Sutekh by luring him to the [[29th century]], a time when life on Earth had already finished, to make him think he had won. To do that, he used [[Russell Courtland|Russell]] and [[Susannah Courtland]]'s cult of Sutekh as a focal point, transporting them through time from the 20th century, during one of their ceremonies in honour of the god. In the 29th century, the Doctor kept acting as if there were no point fighting Sutekh, exasperating Ace and Benny; he didn't intervene when Sutekh killed Russell, Susannah and their cultists, but he instead encouraged Isis to act against Sutekh. Isis went against Sutekh and let him kill her, but that was only an act of reincarnation; she actually reincarnated into [[Alyx Courtland|Alyx]], a young girl the Courtlands adopted to sacrifice her to Sutekh. The Doctor recognised the reincarnation and only then revealed to Sutekh that he had been tricked. In response, Sutekh created a time storm that would allow him to come back in time and ensure this future of devastation would happen; in doing so, he also possessed the Doctor's body, bringing him along with him, since his body was decaying. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Tears of Isis (audio story)}})
 
Sutekh in the Doctor's body used the [[time storm]] to travel to its pyramid on [[Mars]], when Benny (in an earlier time from her perspective) found him and released him from the [[sarcophagus]] he was in. The Doctor and Sutekh fought for the control of the body and mind of the Time Lord, with Sutekh winning in the end; he then proceeded to the [[flesh looms]] in the tomb, to create himself a new body. Benny tried to stop him, but she failed, and Sutekh was regenerated into a new body. He left, thus giving the Doctor back his freedom, but leaving him fatally injured, in a way that stopped regeneration. The Doctor used his last strength to save the life of Benny, who injected herself with Osiran DNA, before crumbling to dust in front of her. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Pyramid of Sutekh (audio story)}})
 
What Sutekh did not realise, was that doing so he was unwillingly trapping himself into a [[time loop]]; as for the Doctor, Isis took him out of the storm and the loop, thus saving his life and partially denying the events in the loop. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Tears of Isis (audio story)}})

The Doctor made a deal with [[Death (mythology)|Death]] for the Master to have ten years of peace and sanity, at the end of which the Doctor had to kill him. To this end, Death transformed the Master into "[[John Smith (Master)|John Smith]]", an ordinary physician on the colony world of [[Perfugium]] with [[amnesia|no memory of his past]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Master (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor decided to take a long overdue vacation to the planet of [[Ormelia]], and materialised the TARDIS aboard a spaceship orbiting the planet, where he befriended a genetically reconstructed creature named [[Vilgreth]], but discovered that his ship travelled through space by devouring planets, and was forced to stop him. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Last of the Titans (audio story)}})
 
Arriving in the remains of the [[Drashani Empire]], the Doctor met a mercenary called [[Vienna Salvatori]], who had been hired to capture him for a bounty payment. He soon encountered an old enemy, [[Kylo Sorsha]]. Sorsha plotted to take revenge against the Doctor because of his actions in the downfall of the Empire due to the reprogramming the Doctor made of the [[Wrath]] in his previous incarnation. Sorsha wanted the Doctor to make the wrath loyal to him again, but he did not allow this to happen. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Shadow Heart (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor manoeuvred the [[Chelbil]] to [[2017]] [[Earth]] so that [[Goilin B]] could frighten them away and use his newfound fame to have the alien residents of [[Cheldon Bonniface]] allowed to remain. After his plan succeeded, he approached his [[eighth incarnation]], who had arrived in Cheldon Bonniface and involved himself in the events, to explain his actions. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Not in My Back Yard (short story)}})
 
The Doctor defended the Earth from attempted invasions by the [[Quark]]s, [[Cyberman|Cybermen]], [[Mechonoid]]s, [[Voord]], and [[Zarbi]]. When [[Davros]] attempted to claim the Earth for himself, he was also defeated by the Doctor. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Consultation Exercise (short story)}})
 
As he was juggling in the TARDIS's control room, the Doctor received an invitation to the [[Psychic Circus]] from of a junkmail robot. Suspicious, the Doctor followed the path the robot indicated to him, but instead landed on [[Zamyatin]], where he was arrested for juggling. As he unwillingly contributed to causing a [[psychic storm]], the Doctor discovered he had been in an illusion when he found himself back in the TARDIS. In another illusion, he found himself back at [[Paradise Towers]], where he met {{Dreyfus}}, and learned that he allied himself with the [[Gods of Ragnarok]] and created the Circus as a source of psychic power for them and himself. The Master then left the Doctor to entertain the Gods, which the Doctor did for a while before recalling the TARDIS and fleeing. He then went back to [[Segonax]] and to the Circus, where he and the Master confronted each other on a [[psychic plane]]. The Doctor told the Master that the Gods were only using him, and exploited the Gods' curiosity to buy time to steal the pendant from the Master and pass it to Kingpin. Kingpin then used the pendant to free the Circus from the Master and the Gods' influence. The Doctor then left, leaving the Master at the mercy of the Gods. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Psychic Circus (audio story)}})
 
=== Two Earths, two Doctors and River Song ===
The TARDIS crashed into the ''[[Saturnius]]'', a Earth ship devised to travel through temporal anomalies, en route towards a planet appeared out of nowhere (actually a version of Earth from an alternate future). As a result of the crash, the Doctor found himself imprisoned as a [[stowaway]] by the crew of the ''Saturnius''; amongs them there was [[River Song]], whose memory was affected by the resulting paradox and failed to recognise him. Based on her confidences, the Doctor worked out what was happening and together with River they tried to reach the TARDIS to operate the controls and detach the ships; however, the Doctor was killed by the temporal duplicates of another member of the crew, and was actually River to operate the controls. When the ships detached, the paradox was reversed and the Doctor found himself on the TARDIS: he didn't know what happened, but retained enough consciousness to change the TARDIS's course and avod impact with the other ship. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Unknown (audio story)}})
 
[[File:River faces the Sperovores with the Sixth and Seventh Doctors.jpg|thumb|right|The Doctor working with [[River Song]] and his [[Sixth Doctor|previous self]] against the [[Speravore]]s. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Eye of the Storm (audio story)}})]]
Discovering that two alternate Earths were fighting for existence, the Doctor traced the origin of the disturbance to [[Golden Futures]], where he discovered the [[Speravore|Speravores]] were behind it all. River Song snuck into his TARDIS and convinced him she wanted to help, so together trey travelled to London, [[1703]], before the Great Storm, where they tracked down a nest of Speravores, whose Queen was feeding on the wasted chances of [[Sarah Dean]]'s life. Not trusting her, the Doctor cuffed River and left her to be arrested for breaking and entering, and the next night, during the Great Storm, he tried to stop Isaac George from saving Sarah, having worked out their meeting had been manipulated by the Speravores. This led him to meet [[Sixth Doctor|his previous self]], remember he tried to help Isaac and Sarah in his previous life, and River's role in it. The two Doctor and River were captured by the Speravores, but thanks to the Sixth Doctor's sacrifice, the Seventh and River reached Golden Futures, where the Doctor prepared to manipulate the timelines to erase Isaac and Sarah from existence, although this troubled him. River then went to the couple and let them decide to willingly sacrifice themselves, thus allowing the Doctor peace of mind to cancel them and solve the situation. He then resisted River's attempts at making him forget, in the end forcing her to knock him unconscious and wipe his mind - but he still kept enough memories to go and talk with Captain [[Maddie Bower]] and [[Rachel Burrows]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Eye of the Storm (audio story)}})
 
=== Adventures with Mags ===
The Doctor tracked [[Mags (The Greatest Show in the Galaxy)|Mags]] down to the planet [[Gokroth]], where they helped the human and monster inhabitants learn to live together and chased away creature hunter [[Varron]]. When Doctor [[Maleeva]] was unable to help Mags, the Doctor offered to help her instead and invited her to travel with him. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Monsters of Gokroth (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor took Mags to [[Vulpana]] to learn about the origin of [[Vulpanan|her people]] and her [[lycanthropy]] and potentially as a way to learn a way to control it. They met a pure-blood family and become embroiled in a plan to take over the planet but they stopped [[Jaks]] in time and put things right. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Moons of Vulpana (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor and Mags then landed on [[Earth]] in the [[1990s]] and met with Ace. They helped her stop an alien take-over of the planet by [[Rufus (An Alien Werewolf in London)|Rufus]] and his minions and saved the [[Arthur (An Alien Werewolf in London)|Sin Eater]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|An Alien Werewolf in London (audio story)}})
 
=== Klein's revenge ===
Arriving in British [[Kenya]] during the [[Mau Mau Uprising]] of [[1953]], the Doctor encountered his old adversary [[Elizabeth Klein]], who was investigating a mysterious virus she recalled from her timeline. Despite their animosity, they worked together to solve the mystery of the alien virus and prevented a [[Cheylis]] plot to use Earth as a testing ground for biological warfare. Knowing Klein would continue to pose a threat to history so long as she remained at large, the Doctor insisted that she accompany him on his travels so that he could keep a closer eye on her, which she agreed to do. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|A Thousand Tiny Wings (audio story)}})
 
Upon taking her to the TARDIS, the Doctor requested Klein recount what caused her to use the TARDIS that resulted in the destruction of her timeline, and discovered that his alternate timeline counterpart had orchestrated his regeneration into his [[Johann Schmidt|eighth incarnation]] to manipulate Klein into using the TARDIS and restoring the timeline. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Klein's Story (audio story)}})
 
After travelling together for a while, the Doctor and Klein arrived on a planet inhabited by the insectoid [[Vrill]]. In the midst of an attack, Klein took her chance for revenge against the Doctor, stealing his TARDIS and abandoning him on the planet. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Survival of the Fittest (audio story)}})
 
After Klein used the TARDIS to rewrite history so that the Nazis won the war, she helped the [[Galactic Reich]] conquer potential threats by travelling into the past to warn them in advance. After time was rewritten, the Doctor's mind was placed in the alternate timeline's Doctor whilst he was imprisoned in the [[Moonbase (The Architects of History)|Moonbase]] and had to work out what his counterpart's plan was. He was released when the [[Selachian]]'s attacked, something his alternate counterpart had arranged, and used it as his advantage, especially when he noticed the use of Time Lord technology as part of the attack. During the attack, Klein was imprisoned and the Doctor interrogated her. She was foiled by the alternate timeline's Doctor and erased from history by the Time Lords. With history restored, the Doctor paid a visit to UNIT, where he encountered a different version of Klein working there. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Architects of History (audio story)}})
 
=== Taking Harry and Naomi home ===
{{section stub|Info from ''[[London Orbital (audio story)|London Orbital]]'' and ''[[Scream of the Daleks (audio story)|Scream of the Daleks]]'' needs to be added}}
While trying to set about a peace treaty between the [[Dökkálfar]] and the [[Ljósálfar]], the Doctor runs into former companions [[Harry Sullivan]] and [[Naomi Cross]] in [[21st century]] London. Surprised by their young appearances, believing he (in his fourth incarnation) had dropped them off back in their own time, the Doctor learns about their misplacement and promises to return them back home after he deals with both factions of elves.

Sensing his end approaching, the Doctor became afraid that his next incarnation wouldn't be willing to do what needed to be done, and began to put all his affairs in order while he still could, to leave nothing unsung when his time came. To this end, he began to monitor interstellar communications across thousands of worlds, from the wireless communications of a multitude of law enforcement organisations to the private correspondence of governments and the criminal underworlds. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Persuasion (audio story)}})
 
Revisiting the planet [[Spiridon]] to ensure that [[Kalendorf]] fulfilled his destiny, the Doctor soon realised that he would have to get involved in order to keep the situation under control. He made a deal with the Daleks to help them achieve their goal of invisibility without suffering from the [[light wave sickness]], in exchange for Kalendorf's safety. After many years, he completed the formula, but betrayed the Daleks at the last moment, exposing them and himself to the sickness, though he, refusing to regenerate, managed to escape back to his TARDIS, where he was healed. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Return of the Daleks (audio story)}})
 
After completing a reconfiguration of [[TARDIS control room|its console room]], the TARDIS brought the Doctor once more to [[Artaris]] where he encountered Lord Sutton, the latest incarnation of the Warlord [[Grayvorn]]. Grayvorn had been reduced to a spirit after their last encounter and had managed to possess a new host before sculpting [[Excelis]] once more into a war-driven dictatorship, using the souls of the rebels of Excelis to power his army of "meat puppets". The Doctor used [[The Relic (Excelis Dawns)|the Relic]] to free the souls, but Grayvorn activated a self-destruct which would destroy Artaris. The Doctor tried to help, but was forced to escape alone, leaving the people of Artaris to die in the explosion. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Excelis Decays (audio story)}})
 
Saddened and alone, the Doctor travelled to the Forge in the hope of shutting it down once and for all. There, he found what appeared to be [[Sixth Doctor (clone)|his sixth incarnation]] assisting Nimrod, and reluctantly helped the organisation fend off a telepathic alien incursion. The Sixth Doctor's arm was lost in the battle, confirming the Doctor's belief that he was a fake. The fake Doctor explained that Nimrod used DNA samples from the real Sixth Doctor to create clones, in an attempt to learn the secrets of regeneration, though, like his two "brothers" before him, the clone was rapidly deteriorating. The Doctor revealed to the clone that he had glimpsed suppressed memories during their telepathic contact, prompting him to discover a wing of the base full of decrepit and dying clones. Struggling to cope, the clone initiated the Forge facility's self-destruct, allowing the Doctor only five minutes to escape, and killing everyone who remained inside the base. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Project Lazarus (audio story)|Project: Lazarus}})
 
Travelling to the planet [[Pelachan]], the Doctor discovered the [[Hand of All]], an artefact that contained a living story. Taking it, the Doctor went to combat a regenerated version of [[Nobody No-One]], trapping him in the Hand inside his mind. He then travelled to the Forge and locked himself inside a Time Lord sarcophagus, waiting until he was found by [[Ace]] and his younger self. As he lost control of the Hand, he warned them that Nobody No-One would return before falling comatose. Upon reawakening, he discovered his younger self had died defeating the Word Lord, and took it upon himself to bring [[Hex]] to [[Evelyn Smythe]] on Pelachan and leave Ace with a [[TG tablet]] and a [[Lime (fruit)|lime]] before he faded out of existence, having set up the circumstances to enable his resurrection. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|A Death in the Family (audio story)}})
 
Burning back into existence on the planet [[Perfugium]], the Doctor discovered that his deal with [[Death (mythology)|Death]] to give the Master a normal life was coming to its conclusion, and it was time for him to honour his side of the bargain. The Doctor tracked down the Master, who was living as a disfigured amnesiac named "John Smith" in a manor house, and joined him and his friends, [[Jacqueline Schaeffer|Jacqueline]] and [[Victor Schaeffer]], in their evening's entertainment. However, the Doctor could not bring himself kill "Smith" as he was enjoying his life, only for "Smith's" housekeeper to reveal herself as Death, who the Doctor made another deal with after witnessing Victor killing Jacqueline: if "John Smith" could make the right decision, then he would be free of the Master. However, "Smith" struggled when Death presented her choice: his life, as her servant, or the life of Jacqueline, with whom he was in love with.
 
In the end, Death took the Master and, as punishment for not holding up his end of their bargain, sent the Doctor away take the place of an assassin and murder an innocent in cold blood. The Doctor travelled to the destination and encountered a sniper about to take his shot, interrupted him and recounted his story. The Doctor still refused to kill his target, but discovered that the sniper was in fact Death, who had known he wouldn't be able to, and departed while proclaiming to know his inevitable fate. As she left, the Doctor swore he would save his old friend one day. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Master (audio story)}})
 
Seeking to "get one over on Death", the Doctor saved a [[Tramp (The Tramp's Story)|tramp]] from allowing himself to be run over by a [[bus]] in order to save the life of [[Rita (The Tramp's Story)|Rita]], the bus driver, who would otherwise have committed suicide. Following this, the pair shared several adventures, including an encounter with [[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart|Mozart]] and {{Champion}}, before the Doctor was forced to admit to the tramp that his mission hadn't been to save him. Honouring his wish for death, the Doctor removed him from time, placing him aboard the [[airship]] present within the [[time vortex]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Tramp's Story (short story)}})
 
The Doctor visited [[Valhalla (city)|Valhalla]], the Capital City of [[Callisto]], and became embroiled in a plot by a swarm of evolved [[termite]]s to take over the city and sell its population as [[slave]]s. After thwarting their plan, he offered a maintenance worker named [[Jevvan]] the chance to travel with him, but was turned down. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Valhalla (audio story)}})
 
Visiting Ancient [[Mars]], the Doctor managed to stop an attempt to take over the Martian government made by [[Arakssor]] with the support of a band of warmongering Ice Warriors, and, with the help of [[Geldar]], ensured that Arakssor and his band of war criminals were sentenced to life imprisonment in [[Antarctica]]. However, Arakssor staged an escape that resulted in the Doctor, and everyone within the facility, becoming trapped in suspended animation beneath the Antarctic ice. With his memories gone, the Doctor was unearthed with the Ice Warriors by a human expedition in [[2012]]. Arakssor quickly resumed his gambit, planning to power the prison's [[sonic cannon]] to eradicate the Earth's greenhouse gases, thus making the planet into a fortress that Martian life could thrive in, wiping out the human race in the process.
 
As his memories began to return, the Doctor commandeered a [[helicopter]] with the expedition's [[physicist]], [[Genevieve Marceau]], and crash-landed near the dig site after the helicopter was hit by [[Ssrongar]]'s sonic cannon. The Doctor reactivated Geldar's distress signal and boosted it to contact a Martian warship from the other side of the galaxy, which bombarded the prison from orbit, destroying Arakssor and the rest of the Ice Warriors. The Doctor and Genevieve fled to the safety of the TARDIS, and returned to the ''[[Fortitude (Frozen Time)|Fortitude]]'' to drop Genevieve off. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Frozen Time (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor arrived on a space station that was orbiting the quarantined planet [[Antikon]], which had fallen victim to a virulent disease that had killed millions of people. Encountering the [[Dar Trader]]s, the Doctor discovered that the disease was a sentient virus called [[Decay (The Death Collectors)|Decay]], which preyed upon all matter. Attracted to death, Decay boarded the space station, but the Doctor managed to contain Decay within the TARDIS, and, after it refused his offer, Decay claimed a final life, ending itself in the process. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Death Collectors (audio story)}})
 
Whilst waiting for Decay to leave the TARDIS into the vortex, the Doctor was drawn to [[Keldafria]], where he met the Marshall Princesses [[Alison Keldafrian]] and [[Louisa Keldafrian]]. He was given a Blood Flower, which caused problems as he started flitting about in time and experienced time in the wrong order. He realised that there was a time loop around the palace he was in and it had something to do with the Blood Flower, and that it was a prison for one of the princesses. He discovered that there was a being he called [[Henry (Spider's Shadow)|Henry]] who trapped the princesses in the loop to stop their troops killing his people and the Doctor's presence stopped Henry's plan from working. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Spider's Shadow (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor was reunited with Nimrod, who had been connected to the main Forge computer, [[Oracle (Project Lazarus)|Oracle]]. Realising that he was now the new leader of the Forge, the Doctor left Nimrod a [[syringe]] containing the Twilight cure beside him, which would remove his vampirism. However, considering the desiccated state he was in, only the vampire DNA was keeping him alive, and using the cure would cause his death. The Doctor departed, leaving it up to Nimrod as to what he would choose. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Twilight's End (short story)}})
 
Tracking a strange signal, the Doctor arrived on the planet [[Tasak]] and encountered an android named [[Temeter]], who was tracking the same signal, and the pair formed an alliance. Travelling across [[Argent City]] via the monorail transport system to the [[Grand Citadel]] of the [[House of Argentia]], the pair discovered a plot by the members of the [[House of Sarkota]] and found [[Sara (Kingdom of Silver)|Sara]], who Temetre had been trying to rescue. However, before they could leave, the trio were arrested as spies and brought to the banquet hall, where a Cyberman statue was unveiled, and the Doctor's warnings about the dangers of Cyber-technology were ignored. As Argentia was taken over by the leaders of Sarkota in a coup, the Doctor and his allies discovered that the core of the planet's technology repository, [[the Silver]], was a Cyberman device, and that a hibernating squadron of Cybermen were still present on the planet. Upon awakening, the Cybermen began to convert the planet's inhabitants, but the Doctor managed to lead them into a trap before destroying the entire repository. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Kingdom of Silver (audio story)}})
 
In search of [[fluid link]]s for his TARDIS, the Doctor travelled to the [[Easto Cluster]] and landed at a [[Reclaim Station]], where he and the mechanic, [[Two'Mark]], were approached by a small robot who recognised the Doctor. Back in his TARDIS, the Doctor activated a holo-glyph control and started to play back a recording made by [[Sara (Kingdom of Silver)|Sara]]; the recording detailed her prosecution following a failed mission and her penalty was to have her consciousness transferred to a worker robot with her emotional capabilities stripped away. Feeling melancholy, the Doctor offered to pay Two'Mark for the fluid link, but the engineer stated that their discovery had gotten him in the mood to be generous, and allowed him to have it for free. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Keepsake (audio story)}})
 
[[File: 7RaineMasterTARDISes.jpg|thumb|left|The Doctor and Raine meet {{Macqueen|n= an apparent future incarnation of the Doctor}}. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Dominion (audio story)}})]]
While the Doctor was travelling with [[Raine Creevy]], the TARDIS was pulled into another dimension by a distress signal, and landed on a barren planet, just as [[Goth's TARDIS|another TARDIS]] arrived with {{Macqueen|n= an apparent future incarnation of the Doctor}}, who claimed to be working with [[UNIT]] on Earth and, warning the Doctor of a mistake he was about to make, urged him not to help the [[Tolian]]s before departing. However, the Doctor ignored the warning and planned to return the power leeched from the planet by a [[dimensional node]] back to the Tolians, and was able to restore the planet to fertility, but the Tolians, wanting the full flow of dimensional energies, captured Raine and threatened to kill her if the Doctor didn't increase the output. Despite knowing that the act would result in chaos across all dimensions, the Doctor resignedly did as the Tolians demanded and opened up a [[dimensional rift]], but quickly rescued Raine and jumped into the rift, explaining that creatures from other dimensions would now be able to freely hop around. Entering into the new dimension, the Doctor and Raine found themselves on a volcanic world inhabited by [[Lava Spider|lava-spewing spiders]] and, after noticing another dimensional door which the arachnids were using to cross over to Earth, the pair were rescued by the "Other Doctor" with a [[Skyhead]]. The Doctor learned that [[Elizabeth Klein]] had confiscated the "Other Doctor's" TARDIS to force him to help UNIT fend off the dimensional escapees, and pleaded to use a dimensional node in Klein's possession to close up the breach, but was refused.
 
While the "Other Doctor" and Raine travelled to [[Japan]] to ward off a gestalt [[cephalopod]]ic species called the [[Nexus]], the Doctor and Klein visited a UNIT post in [[Nevada]] in an attempt to deal with the [[Cube (Dominion)|flying metallic cubes]]. Using their weakness to heat, the Doctor and Klein had the Skyheads start a firestorm to drive the cubes back to their dimension, but the cubes joined together in a final attempt to blow the dimensional doorway, prompting Klein to call the "Other Doctor" for help. However, the "Other Doctor" demanded the release of his TARDIS before he helped them, only to fly off on a Skyhead and flee with his TARDIS and the dimensional node when Klein gave in, but the Doctor managed to hurry after him and enter his TARDIS, and discovered that the "Other Doctor" was really the Master in a new incarnation.
 
Having infiltrated a Time Lord base on [[Tersurus]] to gain the only two dimensional nodes in existence, the Master had planted the first on the Tolians's planet and the second on Earth. After supplying the Tolians with a communicator to contact the Doctor, he arrived on Earth and proceeded to infiltrate UNIT under the guise of the Doctor. Now ready to commence his endgame, the Master hooked the Doctor up to the node activator, intending to use his mind to gain total control over the flow of energy throughout the dimensions. However, the Doctor managed to convince the Tolians to betray the Master by informing their leader, [[Arunzell]], of the fact that the Master had planted the dimensional node on their planet in the first place, and deactivated the activator, restoring the dimensions. Abandoning the Master to the Tolians, the Doctor returned to Earth and used the final node to return the Tolians to their home dimension. Leaving Klein a [[space-time telegraph]] with which she could contact him should she need his help again, the Doctor departed with Raine. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Dominion (audio story)}})
 
Under the guise of "Mr. Ashcroft", the Doctor took possession of the surveillance tapes of [[Bianca's]] bar. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Wormery (audio story)}})
 
=== Search for the Persuasion machine ===
The Doctor detected that [[Kurt Schalk]] in [[1945]] had become the most wanted man in the universe, and set out to discover why. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Persuasion (audio story)}}) Knowing that [[Elizabeth Klein]] was somehow connected to Schalk, ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Daleks Among Us (audio story)}}) he travelled to the [[1990s]] to take her with him on his search for answers. He managed to make Klein follow him from a pub into his TARDIS, unintentionally with junior science officer [[Will Arrowsmith]] in tow. Travelling to [[1945]] [[Dusseldorf|Düsseldorf]], they met [[Kurt Schalk|Lukas Hinterberger]], a Nazi who claimed to be one of Schalk's colleague, who apparently recognised Klein and immediately opened up to her, raising suspicion from Klein and the Doctor.
 
Hinterberger told them about beings called the Struwwelpeter, and eventually agreed to take them to Schalk. Arriving on the Greek island of [[Minos]], they came face to face with the Struwwelpeter, godlike beings from another universe whose true names were the [[Shepherd and Shepherdess]]. Considering this universe to be evil and decadent, they gave Schalk the knowledge to build a device known as the [[Persuasion machine]] so that they could manipulate all beings in the universe to submit to their will. The Doctor trapped them on [[New Peerlessness]], a prison planet near [[Kasterborous]], but was unable to prevent the [[Klecht]] entity from taking Schalk, forcing the TARDIS crew to search for him. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Persuasion (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor found a weapons auction intergalactic commercial being presented by [[Garundel]], and realised Garundel was auctioning Schalk alongside a prototype of the persuasion machine. Fearing his presence would raise suspicion, the Doctor sent Klein and Will to reclaim Schalk and steal the device before it was sold, while he waited in the TARDIS for them to enable him to land inside the compound.
 
After Will gave the safety signal, the TARDIS was intercepted by [[Ziv]], Garundel's assistant, who had taken Will hostage and locked him out of the space ship, as the auction was invaded by the [[Sontaran]]s. Forced to accompany Garundel to find Will and Ziv, the Doctor learned that Schalk seemingly didn't have knowledge of the machine, and aided Garundel in making his pod fast enough to catch up to Will and Ziv. Catching up with their assistants, the Doctor and Garundel were fired upon by the Sontarans, who had taken Klein hostage, but they managed to escape the ship via a teleport, reuniting with both Will and Ziv.
 
While negotiating Klein's release, the Doctor discovered that the man they were selling was not Schalk, but [[Lukas Hinterberger|a different man]] he had met in [[Minos]], and that he was dead. Using the prototype of the machine to persuade Garundel and Ziv to rescue Klein, the Doctor explained to Will that the body they had found was actually that of Hinterberger; Schalk had used the machine to convince Hinterberger he was Schalk and then used it on himself to convince himself that he was Hinterberger. The Doctor boarded the Sontaran ship and, after reuniting with Klein and Will, reluctantly allowed Marshall [[Stenn]] to have his revenge on Garundel, taking his dismembered hand to free the TARDIS from his lockdown. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Starlight Robbery (audio story)}})
 
Returning to [[1945]] Minos, the Doctor, Klein and Will discovered that the [[Dalek]]s were also searching for the [[Persuasion machine]]. Travelling to [[Lemuria]], the Doctor was told that Schalk was on the planet [[Azimuth]], where the trio discovered that it had become illegal to mention the Daleks by name, which got Will arrested when the Doctor mentioned them. After getting an audience with a Dalek clone of Schalk, the Doctor and Klein concluded that the Daleks were still hidden on Azimuth. The Doctor revealed to Klein that there was a blood connection between her and Schalk, prompting her to ask him to take her to 1945 to discover the truth, just as Will returned and told them about a man called "Father" that wanted a meeting with the Doctor.
 
Going to the meeting alone, the Doctor discovered that Father was actually [[Davros]], and the two were taken to the Daleks and Schalk, enabling the Doctor to deduce that Klein had travelled in the TARDIS to three weeks before they first arrived in Düsseldorf, discovered that Schalk was her biological father, and that she was engineered to operate the Persuasion machine. At that moment, Klein returned in the TARDIS and, having seemingly reverted to her original counterpart, claimed to be willing to become the tool for the Persuasion machine. A man called [[Falkus (Daleks Among Us)|Falkus]] then entered the room and, revealing himself as Davros's "son", ordered the Daleks to exterminate Schalk, but Klein forced the Daleks and Falkus to die with the power of the machine. Will returned with the Shepherd, who threatened to kill them all, but Klein used the power of the machine to kill the Shepherd, dying in the process.
 
After ensuring that Davros' escape pod would land on Lemuria, the Doctor and Will noticed that the Klein who had just died was actually [[Elisabeth Volkenrath|her mother]], prompting them to search for Klein on 1945 Earth. Tracking her to [[Russia]], the Doctor apologised to Klein for judging her by her Nazi counterpart, just as Will alerted them to the fact that they were surrounded by the [[Red Army]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Daleks Among Us (audio story)}})

The TARDIS detected an anomaly around the [[Winston Churchill]] re-election campaign, and discovered that {{Hound}} was trying to get him re-elected. He also learnt of a set of thefts of art treasures and helped to investigate. He became concerned about [[Alicia Dowan]] after a set of bombs were being stolen. He undid the changes the Monk did to a crucial speech. He partially fixed Dowan's ships. His actions to put history on course made him unpopular with Churchill. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Subterfuge (audio story)}})
 
The [[Eighth Doctor]] recalled that, towards the end of his life, the Seventh Doctor was travelling alone as he couldn't trust himself with another life. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Resurrection of Mars (audio story)}})
 
Growing lonely and depressed, the Doctor returned to [[Metebelis III]] however was captured by a surviving giant spider. He was rescued by his next incarnation, wielding the Master's [[Tissue Compression Eliminator]], who made contact with the younger Doctor to fully restore his memories. The Doctor's spirits were revived by the incident, despite his future self warning him about his coming fate. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Eight Doctors (novel)}})
 
The Doctor landed in the Spar and was captured by [[UNIT]] and locked up. He was imprisoned next to [[Daniel Hopkins]], who he questioned about the UNIT facility they were in. When [[Linda Maxwell]] attacked the base to capture Hopkins, the Doctor was temporally incapacitated by a sonic signal. Later, he went with Klein to [[Warlock's Cross]] to discover what was there. The Doctor then tried to get them{{who}} to realise the the [[Ship (Warrior's Cross)|Ship]] was making them paranoid. He started to act strangely after leaving the Ship and wanted to change history. He brought Klein back as a way to reassert his true personality, as she was a reminder of him changing time beforehand. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Warlock's Cross (audio story)}})
 
Tracking strange gaps in reality, the Doctor was shocked to meet an apparent past version of the Master, who saved him from the [[Rocket Men]] in return for the Doctor's aid in fighting another version of himself. Accompanied by new temporary companion [[Jemima (The Two Masters)|Jemima]], the Doctor took the Master to confront his future self, but soon determined that the two Masters were actually in each other's bodies. After the Masters were persuaded to return to their own bodies, they killed Jemima and abandoned the Doctor by stealing his own TARDIS as the universe continued to collapse, but the Doctor was able to acquire the Master's abandoned TARDIS and track them to the [[Anomaly cage]], created by the [[Cult of the Heretic]], who had created this crisis to try and unmake existence. Using weapons stolen from the Masters, the Doctor was able to use the Cult's equipment to restore the universe, return the Masters to their points of origin, and save Jemima from the Rocket Men. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Two Masters (audio story)}})
 
Becoming weary of his solitude, the Doctor decided to create a robotic companion, which he named [[Catherine Broome]]. The duo travelled together for a while, facing the Cybermen and [[Gelsat creatures]] whilst the Doctor allowed Cat to believe that she was from the 20th century. Arriving on [[Haven (planet)|Haven]] in the [[28th century]], the Doctor revealed Cat's true nature to her in time to avert a catastrophe on a spaceship. In order to prevent the destruction of the ship, and the deaths of many colonists, Cat travelled through hazardous corridors to the control to save the lives of hundreds. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Companion Piece (novel)}})
 
The Doctor was contacted by Benny, and told that the [[Sirens of Time]] had hijacked the first Gallifreyan experiment of time travel, turning it into a [[time paradox]] that was splitting the universe apart. While the experiment had already been stopped, the [[Time Lord]]s were in danger of not discovering time travel. Along with his [[Third Doctor|third]], [[Fourth Doctor|fourth]], [[Fifth Doctor|fifth]], [[Sixth Doctor|sixth]] and [[eighth incarnation]]s, the Seventh Doctor was brought to the planet [[Henlen]] to serve as one of the six pilots needed to handle the TARDIS prototype, while his [[First Doctor|first]], [[Second Doctor|second]] and [[tenth incarnation]]s stayed behind to deal with the possible backlash. The experiment was successful, restoring the correct timeline, and the Seventh Doctor was taken back to his own time by Benny. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Collision Course (audio story)}})
 
[[File:Seven in the Void.jpg|thumb|The Doctor works with his other selves within the Void. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Lost Dimension (comic story)}})]]
Along with seven other incarnations, the Seventh Doctor became trapped in [[the Void]] when it began to attack and devour the universe. He and the others were able to form a [[dimensional bridge]] to allow the [[Eighth Doctor]] to escape, and were then joined by the [[War Doctor]], followed shortly by the [[Ninth Doctor|ninth]], [[Tenth Doctor|tenth]] and [[twelfth incarnation]]s, who ventured into the [[Type 1]] TARDIS responsible for the disturbance. Forming a plan with the trapped [[Eleventh Doctor]], the Doctors joined their TARDISes to pacify the Type 1 into a peaceful state and return the universe to normal. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Lost Dimension (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor arrived with the control rod to the Lost Moon of Botoya, having won it from a Norse God, which allowed his [[Fifth Doctor|fifth]], [[Sixth Doctor|sixth]] and [[Eighth Doctor|eighth]] incarnations to escape the moon before it was destroyed. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The End of the Beginning (audio story)}})
 
In space, the Doctor encountered a group of [[Silent]]s serving the [[Church of the Papal Mainframe]] and made a deal to help them track down a renegade Silent priest on [[Sunset (city)|Sunset]] in return for repairs to the TARDIS, though the Silents did not tell him the renegade would be sentenced to death. Following post-hypnotic instructions as he was unable to recall the deal, the Doctor went to Sunset and eventually found the renegade priest in [[Kavita Ardhana]]'s casino. The Silents followed him and sentenced the renegade to death, to the Doctor's horror. The renegade recognised he had been misled and forgave the Doctor before being executed. Deciding to ease his conscience, the Silents compelled him to forget what he had witnessed on Sunset and he returned to the TARDIS. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Silent City (audio story)}})
 
With the aid of Ace, Ollistra and [[Rasmus (Deeptime Frontier)|Rasmus]], the Doctor managed to capture the insane Time Lord known as [[the Eleven]] after he conquered the universe with the aid of the Dark Citizens, tricking the Eleven into trapping himself in a virtual environment long enough for the Doctor to convince the Dark Citizens to abandon the Eleven. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Dark Universe (audio story)}}) The Eleven was delivered to [[Padrac]] on Gallifrey, and the Doctor watched the Eleven going into cold storage before Padrac informed him that the President had one last task for him. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Eleven (audio story)}})
 
==== Retrieving the Master's ashes ====
[[File:Seven sees the Master has escaped.jpg|thumb|left|The Doctor discovers that the Master's casket is empty. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Doctor Who (TV story)}})]]
Either due to being telepathically contacted by him, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Novel of the Film (novelisation)}}) instructed by [[Romana II|Romana]] while on Gallifrey, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Lungbarrow (novel)}}) instructed by Romana while he was in the TARDIS, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The TV Movie (novelisation)}}) or informed by [[Padrac]], ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Eleven (audio story)}}) the Doctor learned that {{Tipple}} had been tried on [[Skaro]], where he had been found guilty and executed for his crimes by the [[Dalek]]s, with his last request being that the Doctor transport his remains back to Gallifrey. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Doctor Who (TV story)}}) Knowing his chances of surviving the mission were slim, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Lungbarrow (novel)}}) the Doctor agreed to stow away his ashes safely ([[TV]]: {{cs|Doctor Who (TV story)}}) and used a faulty [[Chameleon Arch]] to turn himself half-human in order to trick the Master in the event of his escape. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Forgotten (comic story)}})
 
The Doctor travelled to Skaro, at a point in time before the [[Hand of Omega]] apparently destroyed it, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|War of the Daleks (novel)}}) and somehow claimed the Master's ashes from the Daleks. However, en route to Gallifrey, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Doctor Who (TV story)}}) while the Doctor was lost in his thoughts, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|This is My Life (short story)}}) the Master escaped from his casket in the form of a [[Deathworm Morphant]] and damaged the inner workings of the TARDIS console, forcing the TARDIS to make an emergency landing in [[San Francisco]] on [[30 December]] [[1999]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Doctor Who (TV story)}}) Needing to find his bearings to figure out how to expurgate the Master from his ship and to find an [[atomic clock]] to repair the time mechanism, the Doctor left the TARDIS without properly checking his surroundings, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Novel of the Film (novelisation)}}) and was caught in the middle of a gang shootout, getting himself shot once through the shoulder and twice in the leg. Before falling unconscious, the Doctor saw the Master exiting the TARDIS in liquid form, and tried to warn a survivor of the shootout who came to his aid, [[Chang Lee]], to stop him, but Lee could make no sense of the Doctor's warning. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Doctor Who (TV story)}})
 
==== Death ====
{{Main|Seventh Doctor's regeneration}}
[[File:Seventh Doctor final scream of life.jpg|thumb|The Doctor dies, screaming in agony. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Doctor Who (TV story)}})]]
Lee hailed an [[ambulance]], and the Doctor was taken to [[Walker General Hospital]], where the bullets were found to have caused only minor injuries and removed. However, the medical team assumed that he was fibrillating and that the [[X-ray]]s showing his two hearts were a double exposure, and [[cardiology|Cardiologist]] Doctor [[Grace Holloway]] was called to undertake exploratory surgery to "fix" his abnormal heartbeat. The Doctor woke up just as Holloway began the surgery, and tried to stop her operating on him by explaining his non-terrestrial origins, but Holloway and the surgeons believed him to be acting irrational due to the pain and quickly put him under [[anaesthetic]]. Shaking off the effects to give one last warning about the Master, the Doctor was rendered unconsciousness. Holloway quickly became lost in the Doctor's cardiovascular system, and he began to flatline when she damaged his circulatory system with her probe. Though the team attempted to revive him, their attempts only allowed to Doctor to awaken briefly, and he was pronounced dead after he let out a final scream.
 
Unlike his previous deaths, this regeneration did not begin promptly; his successor attributed his delayed regeneration to having been under anaesthesia at the time. The hospital staff locked the Doctor's dead body inside a cold chamber, with a "John Doe" toe tag attached and a sheet placed over his body. Several hours later, within the hospital morgue, the Doctor's corpse contorted and crackled with electrical energies as the anaesthesia finally wears of and the regeneration process began, the face of the Seventh Doctor cracking and shifting into the facial structure of a younger man, giving the Doctor new life in the form of [[Eighth Doctor|his eighth incarnation]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Doctor Who (TV story)}})
 
==== Growing old ====
In some [[time stream]]s, the Seventh Doctor did not regenerate and instead grew old. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)}}) An old Seventh Doctor visited his former companion [[Melanie Bush]] at her [[24 CARAT|intergalactic business company]]'s [[Mel's spacestation headquarters|headquarters]], disguising himself as an investor and then revealing himself to her by playing the [[spoon]]s. ([[WC]]: {{cs|24 Carat (webcast)}})
 
The elder Seventh Doctor was brought to the [[Memory TARDIS]] where he was reunited with [[Ace]]. They discussed their encounter with Fenric and later falling out and then resolved to go on a trip together in the Memory TARDIS, piloting it together. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)}})
 
=== Post-mortem ===
<!--This section is for instances where a future Doctor degenerates back into this incarnation, a manifestation of his memory comes into play during future events, or the Doctor encounters a memory of this incarnation in some form.-->
When the [[Eighth Doctor]] was exploring his own mind, he saw the Seventh Doctor sleeping in a garden of roses, holding his umbrella "like a child [would] a stuffed animal". When the Eighth Doctor tried to dive deeper into his memories, the Seventh Doctor awoke to stop him, and forced him to leave his mind. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The City of the Dead (novel)}})
 
While meditating, unable to access the blocked-off part of his mind, the Eighth Doctor saw the Seventh Doctor, who asked him how Ace's memory of her trip to [[Paradise Towers]] could be relevant. He also told the Doctor that there were 153,841 blossoms in the garden, and that the trick to counting them is to subtract five from the end, a clue to the Time Lord minds within the Doctor's head. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Gallifrey Chronicles (novel)}})
 
When the Eighth Doctor was possessed by [[Zagreus]] and stabbed by [[Charley Pollard]], he met the mental manifestations of his fifth, sixth and seventh incarnations in his mind when he nearly allowed himself to die, subsequently rallying himself with their aid to restore himself and retake control of the anti-time energies. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Zagreus (audio story)}})
 
During the [[Last Great Time War]], the Doctor was affected by a [[Retro-regeneration|degeneration]] weapon. He first briefly degenerated into the Seventh Doctor, who proclaimed it had all gone wrong, before degenerating further. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Past Lives (audio story)}}) Later, as the [[Fifth Doctor]] destabilised whilst the TARDIS was caught in a forcefield whilst leaving the [[end of the universe]], the Seventh Doctor emerged again, saying it was his time to take charge. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Artist at the End of Time (audio story)}}) He was brought to [[Space Station Zenobia]] and recruited by [[Eleventh General|the General]] to answer a request by [[Davros (Palindrome)|Davros]] to be rescued from [[Falkus]] in return for aiding the Time Lords in the war. Though suspicious of Davros' motives, the Doctor agreed and was accompanied to Falkus by Commander [[Veklin]], where they retrieved Davros from a guard of [[Kaled]] clones. Upon returning to Zenobia they were followed by Daleks who captured them along with Davros and took them back to Falkus. There Davros revealed his control of the Kaled clones and attempted to merge the Doctor's DNA with a Dalek mutant as an experiment, only for his unstable genetics to cause it to explode. The Doctor escaped in the confusion and repeated the act with the giant mutant at the heart of Falkus, destroying the moon entirely. He was rescued by the General in his TARDIS and returned him and Veklin to Time Lord forces, after which they returned him to his timestream where he destabilised again. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|A Genius for War (audio story)}})
 
[[File:Sin-Eaters (comic story).jpg|thumb|left|The Seventh Doctor tries to emerge from a [[Sin-Eater]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Sin-Eaters (comic story)}})]]
When the [[Ninth Doctor]]'s Sin-Eater became conscious due to the Doctor's telepathic nature, it mutated to show the Seventh Doctor's face, among other incarnations, straining against its body. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Sin-Eaters (comic story)}})
 
When the [[Tenth Doctor]] was confronted by [[Es'Cartrss]] within the TARDIS's Matrix, he summoned the Seventh Doctor, among his other past incarnations, to use their united memories and willpower to take back control of the Matrix. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Forgotten (comic story)}})
 
During many failed attempts to duplicate the Tenth Doctor, defective copies of all his past incarnations, including the Seventh Doctor, were created instead. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Breakfast at Tyranny's (comic story)}})
 
After the Eleventh Doctor was accused of committing deadly crimes against the [[Overcast]], he brooded in the TARDIS for two days, imagining all his previous numbered incarnations, including the Seventh Doctor, interrogating him over the crimes. When he offered the rationale that he always left things better than he found them, they all turned and left him in disgust and disgrace. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Pull to Open (comic story)}})
 
When the Eleventh Doctor was attacked by [[the Then and the Now]] on [[Lujhimene]], the Seventh Doctor was among the incarnations seen as the Doctor's timeline was almost destroyed. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Running to Stay Still (comic story)}})
 
When the Eleventh Doctor entered into the [[T'keyn Nexus]] in order to defend himself, Matrix projections of his previous incarnations, including the Seventh Doctor, appeared inside it to defend themselves as well. After the [[Sixth Doctor]] denied [[Es'Cartrss|auditor Sondrah]]'s accusation of being a meddler, the Seventh Doctor admitted to have meddled "just a little" in the Earth's affairs. When Sondrah tried to turn this against the Doctor by pointing out the destruction of [[Skaro]], the Seventh Doctor denied responsibility, citing that the Daleks had destroyed it with their "greed and arrogance", and that he had only provided them with means. When the Eleventh Doctor began to deduce Sondrah's true identity, the past Doctors faded away as [[Oscar Wilde]] interfered with the Nexus. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Dead Man's Hand (comic story)}})
 
After saving [[Gallifrey]] from [[the Moment]] at the conclusion of the [[Last Great Time War]], the Eleventh Doctor dreamed of himself standing with all his past incarnations, including the Seventh Doctor, as he thought about his search for Gallifrey. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Day of the Doctor (TV story)}})
 
When he was exposed to energy from a [[time storm]], the [[Twelfth Doctor]] degenerated through all of his previous incarnations, including the Seventh Doctor. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Lost Magic (audio story)}})
 
[[File:Guardian of the Edge 7.jpg|thumb|right|The Seventh Doctor as a Guardian of the Edge. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Power of the Doctor (TV story)}})]]
During the [[restoration of the Cyber-Empire]], the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] used the memory of all her previous incarnations to escape [[the Matrix]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Timeless Children (TV story)}})
 
During [[the Master's Dalek Plan]], the Seventh Doctor appeared as one of the "[[Guardians of the Edge]]" who urged the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] to resist {{Dhawan}}'s attempt to take possession of her [[body]] and [[The Doctor (title)|identity]] by [[forced regeneration]]. Elsewhere, the Doctor's [[AI hologram (The Power of the Doctor)|AI hologram]] adopted the image of the Seventh Doctor when speaking with [[Ace]], who apologised for having "fell out" with him, to which the Doctor assured her that they were not only "good" but "ace". ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Power of the Doctor (TV story)}})

* The Seventh Doctor was sighted by [[j q public]] arguing with his [[ninth incarnation]] on [[University campus (Have You Seen This Man?)|a university campus]] sometime prior to early [[2005]]. This was documented on the website [[Doctor Who?]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Have You Seen This Man? (short story)}})

* When they were trapped on a prison planet run by "giant, mechanical [[prawn]]s", the Seventh Doctor told Ace that he missed [[Sarah Jane Smith]]. ([[WC]]: {{cs|Farewell, Sarah Jane (webcast)}})
* The Seventh Doctor visited [[Daughter of Mine]] during her imprisonment in the [[mirror]]s. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Shadow of a Doubt (audio story)}})
* [[Helen Greyridge]] travelled with him, later recalling him as "a strange little man" who held an umbrella. She was later [[brainwash]]ed by the [[Great House]]s to think he had been "[[The Evil Renegade|some sort of evil renegade]]". ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Judy's War (short story)}})
* One account told of a man going by "[[the Professor (Republica)|the Professor]]", ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Republica (novelisation)}}) the same nickname Ace had given the Doctor. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)}}, et. al) The Professor also had a companion going by the name of "[[Ace (Republica)|Ace]]", who remembered first meeting the Professor in an area filled with "alien blue and white." Although she came to question her own memories, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Republica (novelisation)}}) that description indeed matched Ace's first meeting with the Doctor on ''Iceworld''. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Dragonfire (TV story)}}, et. al)
 
== Legacy ==
During the [[1851 incident]], the [[Tenth Doctor]] used the [[infostamp]]s to project records of his first ten, numbered incarnations from the [[database]] of the [[Cybusman|Cybermen]], which he believed was stolen from the [[Dalek]]s following the [[Battle of Canary Wharf]], as he explained to [[Jackson Lake]] how he had been made to believe he was [[the Doctor (title)|the Doctor]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Next Doctor (TV story)}})
 
As they observed the [[Earth]] in [[2008]], the [[Atraxi]] recorded the existence of the ten, numbered incarnations preceeding the [[Eleventh Doctor]], who sent the Atraxi into [[retreat]] after introducing himself. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Eleventh Hour (TV story)}})
 
[[Hybrid Incident|Receiving]] the [[Twelfth Doctor]] in his [[infirmary]] on [[Skaro]], Davros replayed footage of the Seventh Doctor [[Shoreditch Incident|ridiculing Davros's ambitions of power]] amongst other confrontations. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Magician's Apprentice (TV story)}})
 
When [[Rogue (Rogue)|Rogue]] used his [[deep scanner]] on the [[Fifteenth Doctor]], the images of seventeen earlier incarnations were projected, including that of the Seventh Doctor. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Rogue (TV story)}})
 
== Other realities ==
=== Negated timelines ===
[[File:Ace and 7 LATE.JPG|thumb|left|The Seventh Doctor and Ace arrive in the Master's trap. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Light at the End (audio story)}})]]
When the [[Cyberman|Cybermen]] allied with [[Rassilon]] to take over history, ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Supremacy of the Cybermen (comic story)}}) the Seventh Doctor was planting [[Nemesis mine]]s across the [[Cyber-Fleet]] when he discovered that [[Ace]] had been [[cyber-converted]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Prologue: The Seventh Doctor (comic story)}}) He was then attacked by Ace. This timeline was eventually unwritten by Rassilon and the [[Twelfth Doctor]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Supremacy of the Cybermen (comic story)}})
 
In a negated timeline, the Doctor and Ace were drawn to land in a pocket universe built on [[23 November]] [[1963]], where they began to see images of the past and future of the TARDIS, and encountered the [[Sixth Doctor]] and [[Peri Brown]], who had also been brought there. Investigating further, the Seventh Doctor discovered that {{Pratt}} was also present, and found out that the Master's plot was to erase his timeline by planting a [[conceptual bomb]] inside [[Bob Dovie]] so that Dovie's inability to accept the [[Fifth Doctor]]'s TARDIS would cause the TARDIS to explode across its own timeline. After Ace vanished due to the timelines changing, the Seventh Doctor attempted to contact the Time Lords, but was unable to when his TARDIS began to explode. However, the Sixth Doctor was able to bring the Seventh Doctor and his other incarnations together using a dimensional stabiliser, and the Fifth Doctor stopped the bomb from going off by showing Dovie the inside of the TARDIS in [[1962]], ensuring that he would not consider it impossible when he entered it in 1963. The Seventh Doctor then joined his other seven incarnations in preparing to [[time ram]] [[the Master's TARDIS]]. However, rather than kill the Master, the [[First Doctor]] instead turned off the automatic distress actions, which had brought all of the Doctors to the pocket dimension and triggered the TARDIS's destruction, making it so none of that had happened. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Light at the End (audio story)}})
 
=== Alternate timelines ===
In an [[alternative timeline]], the Doctor was able to save [[Jan Rydd]] and his fellow Travellers on Heaven in 2570, and, in another alternative timeline, was beheaded by an [[Ice Warrior]] on [[Peladon]] in [[3985]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|So Vile a Sin (novel)}})
 
In one alternative timeline, the Doctor and Ace were captured in [[Colditz Castle]] in [[October]] [[1944]]. When they tried to escape, Ace was killed, and left behind her Walkman. This provided the [[Nazi]]s with laser technology, which they exploited to win the [[Second World War]]. Immediately afterwards, the Doctor returned to [[Germany]] in [[1955]], where he was shot by Nazi soldiers. He later regenerated into [[Johann Schmidt|an alternative version]] of his [[eighth incarnation]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Colditz (audio story)}}, {{cs|Klein's Story (audio story)}})
 
In a timeline where [[Elizabeth Klein]] used the Doctor's TARDIS to rewrite history so that the Nazis won the war, and helped the [[Galactic Reich]] conquer potential threats by travelling back in time to give them forewarning, the Doctor, who remembered the correct timeline, was captured and imprisoned on [[the Moon]], but managed to secretly contact the [[Selachian]]s and supplied them with the necessary technology to destroy the [[Moonbase (The Architects of History)|Moonbase]]. When Klein came to visit the Doctor to find out where his TARDIS was, the Selachians attacked the base. The Doctor and Klein escaped in the TARDIS, where the Doctor informed her that the Time Lords had tried her and found her guilty, and she was erased from history, along with the alternate Doctor, restoring things to their correct order.

* After the original series ended, Sylvester McCoy and [[Sophie Aldred]] played characters called the Professor and Ace, respectively, in the ''[[Audio Adventures in Time & Space]]'' audio series produced by [[BBV Productions]]. The stories were initially implied to be a continuation of ''Doctor Who'', but these connections decreased when the Professor was renamed [[the Dominie]] and Aldred's character [[Alice]].
* In the BBC medical soap opera {{wi|Doctors (2000 TV series)|Doctors}}, McCoy guest-starred as Graham Capelli, an actor who had played the titular role in ''The Amazing Lollipop Man'', a cult [[1980s]] children's television series.

* An Easter Egg referencing the Seventh Doctor appears in the seventh episode of the first season of the Nickelodeon children's horror series, ''Are You Afraid of the Dark?

You may wish to consult The Professor (disambiguation) for other, similarly-named pages.

Originally a man with the demeanour of an eccentric, light-hearted buffoon who delighted in humorous reverie, the Seventh Doctor darkened into a Machiavellian manipulator to combat Fenric's return, becoming a sombre genius of frightful calibre who could tactfully use his mind to manipulate almost any situation into reaching his favoured outcome for the "greater good", actively seeking out evil to vanquish instead of traveling aimlessly. However, he could also show profound warmth and affection to his companions, and built a strong bond with many of them, almost becoming a substitute parent-like figure in his handling of them, even if he had to hurt some of his closest friends by toying with their minds as part of his schemes.

In his early days, the Doctor was little more than a carefree traveller seeing the universe with Mel Bush after escaping the scheme of the First Rani on Lakertya, with the pair arriving at the likes of Paradise Towers and Shangri-La Wales as the Doctor began to change from a clown to a schemer, until they came to Iceworld and met Ace, a troubled teenager from 1980s Earth who the Doctor recognised as a Wolf of Fenric, and the Doctor, realising he could no longer avoid his rematch with Fenric, nudged Mel into leaving with Sabalom Glitz while he took Ace on as a companion. Treating her both as his protégé and a pawn in Fenric's game, the Doctor did his best to heal Ace's psychological wounds by helping her come to terms with her past misdeeds and fears, aiding her in maturing and supporting her in moments of difficulty, while he descended more into a dark deceiver, even tricking Davros into destroying Skaro with the Hand of Omega to end the Imperial-Renegade Dalek Civil War, killing Helen A's pet Stigorax to topple her regime on Terra Alpha and destroying a Cyber-Fleet with Nemesis.

After they freed the Psychic Circus from the Gods of Ragnarok with the Vulpanan werewolf Mags, the Doctor left Ace in the Cretaceous period and reunited with Frobisher for some brief adventures until they parted ways again. As he travelled alone, the Doctor ran into the likes of Death's Head and Abslom Daak, until he retrieved Ace. In their continued adventures, they assisted UNIT in stopping Morgaine from obtaining Excalibur and prevented Josiah Samuel Smith's plan to assassinate Queen Victoria, before they had their fated showdown with Fenric at 1943 Maiden's Point, where they emerged victorious. The Doctor then brought Ace back to her home of Perivale in time to face the Tremas Master on the Cheetah Planet. After the Master was left on the Cheetah Planet as it exploded, accounts differ on the Doctor and Ace's exploits after they departed Perivale with "work to do".

According to one account, the Doctor and Ace quickly found themselves caught in the schemes of the Mandragora Helix and attended a party on Maruthea. In conjunction with another account, the Doctor began to embrace his role as Time's Champion, in which he worked in the service of the Eternal known as Time, by the time he faced the Timewyrm. Although he did many good deeds while under the title of Time's Champion, his manipulative ways and amoral decisions cost him dearly, with Ace leaving him as he was joined by Bernice Summerfield on Heaven. Ace would eventually return, though the Doctor was unable to regain her trust until they defeated Mortimus and his plot to corrupt the Doctor's timeline. Ace would eventually leave to become "Time's Vigilante" and Bernice would depart to marry Jason Kane, leaving the Doctor to travel with Adjudicators Roz Forrester and Chris Cwej until Roz died in battle and Chris left to see the universe with a Time Ring after a trip to the House of Lungbarrow, where the Doctor was also asked to collect the Old Master's remains from Skaro.

In a differing account, the Doctor tried to have Ace join the Time Lord Academy, though she rejected going, just as they were embroiled in a series of adventures involving Raine Creevy. After some brief adventures with Bev Tarrant and foiling Elizabeth Klein's temporal scheme at Colditz Castle, the Doctor and Ace were joined by Hex, who became a key player in the Doctor's feud with the Forge and the Elder Gods. After Hex left to start a family, the Doctor was re-joined by Mel. In this account, the Doctor still went on to have adventures with Bernice, Roz and Chris, and he reunited with Bernice and Ace for a few more adventures, while also taking on Klein as a companion until her actions rewrote her timeline. As Ace had decided to become a Time Lord, the Doctor found himself reconnecting with old friends like Mags, Harry Sullivan and Naomi Cross to have them as companions as he tended to the universe.

Eventually, after all his friends had left him, the Doctor dedicated himself to his mission of protecting the history of the universe, even traveling back down his own timeline to attend to his unfinished business and clean up after his previous incarnations. Though he asked some people to become his new companion, the Doctor resigned himself to a solitary existence, only seeking out his old companions when they proved useful to his plans, which only alienated him further away from them. However, after an encounter with the Eight Legs, the Doctor decided to embrace his older jollier side before he met his fate, allowing him to face his final adventures with high spirits.

After many years of schemes and manipulations, the Doctor ironically met his end in events out of his control after being caught at the wrong place at the wrong time due to crash-landing in San Francisco on 31 December 1999 while taking the Master's remains to Gallifrey. As he realised the Master had somehow survived his execution, the Doctor was shot by a San Francisco gang on the streets and then fatally injured when Dr. Grace Holloway's exploratory surgery on his gunshot wounds accidentally clogged a vein. Due to the anaesthetic in his system, he did not properly regenerate into his next incarnation until several hours had past.

Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]

A day to come[[edit] | [edit source]]

The First Doctor would occasionally have premonitions of his future incarnations, (PROSE: A Big Hand for the Doctor [+]Loading...["A Big Hand for the Doctor (short story)"]) and there was a rumour that he was able to glimpse his first seven regenerations during a game of Eighth Man Bound. (PROSE: Christmas on a Rational Planet [+]Loading...["Christmas on a Rational Planet (novel)"], Lungbarrow [+]Loading...["Lungbarrow (novel)"])

When the First Doctor learned that he was diverted from the South Pole by "forces from the future" to stop him from becoming an incarnation that would play a key role in a future conflict, he was informed by the Player that he would have "lots of new faces" before he regenerated into the incarnation involved in the conflict. (AUDIO: The Plague of Dreams [+]Loading...["The Plague of Dreams (audio story)"]) Shortly before his regeneration, the First Doctor was told of "a few false starts" before he became the Twelfth Doctor, and was later shown footage of the Seventh Doctor, as well as his ten other successors, by the Testimony when he expressed doubt over the Twelfth Doctor's identity.

Post-regeneration[[edit] | [edit source]]

The newly regenerated Doctor. (TV: Time and the Rani [+]Loading...["Time and the Rani (TV story)"])
Main article: Sixth Doctor's regeneration

According to one account, the Sixth Doctor, after being sapped of chronon energy whilst fighting the Lamprey, (PROSE: Spiral Scratch [+]Loading...["Spiral Scratch (novel)"]) suffered a fatal head injury (AUDIO: Zagreus [+]Loading...["Zagreus (audio story)"]) due to the buffeting of the TARDIS caused by the Rani's laser bombardment. (TV: Time and the Rani [+]Loading...["Time and the Rani (TV story)"]) Indeed, another account indentified the cause of the regeneration as a "bumpy crash-landing". (PROSE: First Day of the Doctor [+]Loading...["First Day of the Doctor (short story)"])

A second account showed that the Sixth Doctor was sent a psychic signal advising him to go to the planet Lakertya, despite an ominous source of radiation being nearby. Upon approaching Lakertya, the TARDIS came under attack from focused beams of the radiation being fired from the Rani's TARDIS. Whilst Mel only passed out, the Doctor was mortally wounded by the radiation. As the persona of the Seventh Doctor manifested before him, the Doctor's sixth persona dissolved into his seventh, both agreeing their future was "in safe hands." (AUDIO: The Brink of Death [+]Loading...["The Brink of Death (audio story)"])

After the laser attack, the TARDIS was caught in the Rani's tractor beam, and forced to make a landing on Lakertya's surface, where the Rani and her Tetrap servant, Urak, boarded the TARDIS and abducted the Doctor as his regeneration concluded, taking him to the Rani's laboratory. Awakening in the Rani's lab, the Doctor immediately recognised her, but was knocked out by Urak and injected with an amnesia-inducing drug, which allowed the Rani to trick him into assisting her with her project by pretending to be Mel. Upon regaining consciousness again, the partially amnesiac Doctor first decided to choose a new look, before returning to work on the Rani's machine, having been convinced by "Mel" that he had been working on it before an accident caused him to regenerate.

However, as the Doctor found what was wrong with it, the real Mel snuck into the lab and the two convinced each other of their identities, exposing the Rani's lies. Escaping, the Doctor discovered that several other geniuses from throughout time, including Albert Einstein and Hypatia, had been captured to act as components of the Rani's "time brain". Forced to become the final component, the Doctor's still recovering mind caused it to spout nonsense, though he also inadvertently provided the brain with the means to determine the needed substance: Loyhargil. The Lakertyan leader, Beyus, then sacrificed his life to destroy the brain and delay the launch long enough for the rocket to miss the asteroid. Rescuing the captives, the Doctor took them back to their own times. (TV: Time and the Rani [+]Loading...["Time and the Rani (TV story)"])

Bemoaning the loss of his umbrella and scarf, the Doctor went back to his wardrobe and obtained a new paisley scarf and whangee-handled umbrella. Taking the time to clean out the dimensionally transcendental pockets of the Sixth Doctor's patchwork coat, he sat down to sort the contents of several lifetimes, organising them into two piles, of what was useful and what was not. While doing so, he considered the consequences of regeneration, and assessed whether he was going to like his new body. (PROSE: The Useful Pile [+]Loading...["The Useful Pile (short story)"]) He also wrote in his diary about his regeneration and the Rani.

New adventures with Mel[[edit] | [edit source]]

Shortly after he dropped Mel off in London, the Doctor became a prisoner at "the Institute", and sent the TARDIS back to Mel to save him. After he had been driven insane, the Doctor was found by Mel, who helped him restore his sanity. Informed that the Institute was run by the Celestial Intervention Agency, the Doctor found that medics were conducting experiments to graft TARDIS minds into sentient life forms, and, horrified at their amoral stance, restored the TARDIS consciousnesses to their physical bodies, and freed the inmates. (AUDIO: Unregenerate! [+]Loading...["Unregenerate! (audio story)"])

Landing on the Needle, the Doctor became affected by the "Red" infection. Investigating why this was happening, he got the attention of the controlling computer Whitenoise. He realised that the he was being affected because he was a time sensitive and the infection was caused by the editing of Celia Fortunaté. (AUDIO: Red [+]Loading...["Red (audio story)"])

The Doctor took Mel to 2040 Sussex Downs to show her how much human computer technology had advanced from her time. They found a community of mathematicians led by Thea, who believed that they had discovered the pattern of the TARDIS's landings on Earth and could thus predict the time and place of their arrivals. The Doctor tried to explain that it was just chance, but Thea refused to believe him. Determined to prove them wrong, the Doctor took the TARDIS back in time five weeks, thus spoiling the pattern. (PROSE: Daisy Chain [+]Loading...["Daisy Chain (short story)"])

Visiting the Hammerson Plastic PLC 1999 New Year's Eve gala, the Doctor revealed to Mel that its owner, Alisha Hammerson, was an advanced Auton under the control of the Nestene Consciousness. After her Auton workers gassed the building, the Doctor was awoken by Hammerson, and given a tour of the building. Once he reached the chamber containing the Nestene Consciousness, he distracted the Autons long enough to enable Mel to destroy their link with the nearest Nestene world, thwarting their plans of conquering the Earth. (COMIC: Plastic Millenium [+]Loading...["Plastic Millenium (comic story)"])

On a visit to Croydon on 24 December 1995, Mel and the TARDIS disappeared. Investigating, the Doctor found an archaeological dig and met archaeologist Michael Gregson, who told him the history of unusual phenomena attached to the site. Realising that the site was the locale of a temporal volcano, the Doctor went back to 24 December 1935, where he rescued Mel and the Gregson family, but was forced to leave Michael behind. (PROSE: 24 Crawford Street [+]Loading...["24 Crawford Street (short story)"])

Deciding to visit his friend Reverend HT Ellacombe in 1850 England, the Doctor and Mel discover that his village is being plagued with hoof-like footprints in the snow, which the villagers interpret as being the footprints of The Devil. It is revealed that the reverend himself is the cause of the footprints, being possessed by an alien surveying the earth for invasion. The Doctor falsifies the alien's report back to its homeland by claiming that the earth was uninhabitable, foiling the alien's plan.

The Doctor, Mel and the Kangs. (TV: Paradise Towers [+]Loading...["Paradise Towers (TV story)"])

Travelling to Paradise Towers so Mel could enjoy its swimming pool, the Doctor found that the staff and residents residing within the Towers had all become either anarchist Kangs, cannibalistic Rezzies or pompous Caretakers. Accused of being the "Great Architect" that built the Towers, the Doctor was nearly killed by the Chief Caretaker, who wanted the Tower to run the way he wanted. The real architect, Kroagnon, a madman who killed anyone who moved into his creations to keep them perfect, was still within the complex, and had been using the Cleaners to murder residents. As the Doctor and Mel investigated, Kroagnon became concerned, and transplanted his disembodied mind into the Chief, going on a murderous rampage through the complex. He was defeated when Pex, the only remaining male resident, pushed him to his death down a lift shaft, sacrificing himself to prove his bravery. (TV: Paradise Towers [+]Loading...["Paradise Towers (TV story)"])

The Doctor and Mel then travelled to Pax Lucis, an English village occupied by Nazis, during the Second World War. When a barrier cut the village off from the rest of the world, the Doctor discovered the Nazis had captured the Lightwanderer, a creature that fed on solar radiation. The Nazis plotted to create a barrier around the Earth, which would destroy the planet. The Doctor gained an ally in the Nazis' commander, Luther, who sacrificed himself by blowing up "the weapon", saving the planet. (PROSE: Special Weapons [+]Loading...["Special Weapons (short story)"])

When the TARDIS was forced to materialise in 1978 England, the Doctor and Mel traced the cause to an anomalous concentration of artron energy from a Cnidarian artefact discovered in a cave by a group of university students. The artefact summoned Commander Hydra Sowerbii, who attempted to conquer Earth, but was quickly defeated. (PROSE: The Invertebrates of Doom [+]Loading...["The Invertebrates of Doom (short story)"])

Arriving in 1987 Britain, the Doctor and Mel were shocked to see a tower in the exact form of a Dalek, serving as the main office of the Zenos Corporation. As Mel infiltrated the Zenos Corporation, the Doctor learned that the Daleks were working with the corporation's CEO, Alek Zenos, to present themselves to the British government as interested in becoming Britain's economic partners in the galactic market. As part of this plan, the Daleks also introduced a new video game, Warfleet, which allegedly depicted a space empire pursuing a rebel ship, but actually allowed the players to take control of Dalek drone ships in the future and use them against the Daleks' enemies, subverting the Daleks' handicap of relying on pure logic.

The Doctor nearly turned the tables when Mel was able to tell the Warfleet players what was happening and convince them to help the rebels, as well as the revelation that Alek Zenos was actually a double agent working with Thal rebels against the Daleks. However, things turned against the Doctor when MP Celia Dunthorpe allied with the Daleks, believing that the economic benefits of an alliance with the Daleks were more important that the Doctor's warning about how dangerous they were. Although the Daleks almost won by using the Zenos Tower to transmit a Dalek perspective across London, brainwashing even Mel to adhere to a Dalek philosophy, the Doctor was able to cure Mel of the programming and pass on instructions before he was taken to Skaro for trial.

Using the Doctor's advice, Mel was able to reprogram the time corridor in Zenos Tower to send the entire tower to Skaro, the continued broadcast of the "Dalek Factor" causing the Daleks on Skaro to turn on each other as their natural aggression and arrogance was amplified. With the Daleks destroying themselves and the Warfleet players helping the rebels rescue the Thal slaves on Skaro, the Doctor used the building to trigger a time storm after setting up a time corridor to take himself and his allies back to Earth, the resulting storm causing most Daleks left on the planet to age to death as their parts became too old to operate. (AUDIO: We Are The Daleks [+]Loading...["We Are The Daleks (audio story)"])

The Doctor and Mel landed in a mysterious warehouse, where they came across two cults: one about the ordering of goods, and the other about the processes in the warehouse. They discovered an infestation of mould and rat like creatures and that nothing had left the warehouse in years. The Doctor learnt from Lydek that the mould was an infection and that the warehouse was isolated to protect the stock. He was later offered an umbrella with a question mark handle, to replace the one broken by Fred's rat traps. (AUDIO: The Warehouse [+]Loading...["The Warehouse (audio story)"])

Responding to a distress call, the Doctor and Mel found themselves in an abandoned human mining colony that had been re-appropriated as a Sontaran research base, only for the Sontaran research team assigned there to have gone insane, with most of them dead and the surviving commander a gibbering wreck hiding in the cells. When a new Sontaran force was sent to investigate, the Doctor realised that the cause of the mental imbalance was the telepathic influence of a silicon-based life-form in the base's former mines, which identified itself as "The Bloom", absorbing the emotions of the residents of the facility to allow itself to grow. While the original miners had only been affected by the Bloom after prolonged exposure to it, the Sontarans' experiments at influencing human emotions had given the Bloom far more emotional material to "feed" on, driving the Sontarans and the former prisoners to increasingly irrational actions, such as Sontarans fighting each other and one of the prisoners trying to break a glass observation dome despite the planet's tainted atmosphere.

As a result of this emotional "stimuli", the Bloom had achieved sentience at the cost of making it far more hostile due to the Sontarans' violent nature, now manifesting as a dust cloud that consumed the humans and Sontarans to gain their knowledge and experience. Despite acknowledging the Bloom as a sentient creature with a right to exist, the Doctor refused to let it continue in its current state due to the danger it posed to others, tricking the last Sontaran present into carrying bombs directly into the Bloom while he, Mel and the remaining human survivors retreated to the TARDIS, the Doctor hopeful that the explosion would disperse the Bloom to such an extent that it would have to start its "evolution" over again and hopefully become something more peaceful.

The Doctor and Mel foiled a Vardan invasion of Earth with Nikola Tesla and encountered weretarantulas on Vyga 3. They landed on a damaged human ship called The Duke of Milan that was trying to reach Dido. The Doctor helped the ship land on a suitable planet and helped the humans negotiate peace with the natives of the planet. He also discovered an element native to the planet that could provide infinite power and named it Doctorium. (AUDIO: Maker of Demons [+]Loading...["Maker of Demons (audio story)"])

After escaping the explosion of a sabotaged ship, the Doctor and Mel, impersonating the murdered crew members they had encountered on the ship, found that they had arrived on Dark Space 8, a space station currently hosting the Intergalactic Song Contest. Discovering that the song contest was being used as a cover for secret peace talks between Golos and Angvia, they managed to prevent the terrorist Loozly from sabotaging the conference, and helped Earth win.

In search of leptonite crystals to combat the Quarks on the space yacht Pinto, the Doctor and Mel arrived on the planet Puxatornee in the year 3090, where the inhabitants were struggling to live in peace with a race called the Slithergees, who were slowly taking over after they arrived there as refugees thirty years prior. The Doctor and Mel were forced by two inhabitants, Stuart and Reed, to travel back to 3060 to kill the president of Puxatornee before she could invite the Slithergees to stay. When they returned from the successful assassination, history had changed so that the Slithergees instead went to war with the Puxatornees. The Doctor and Mel became separated with Stuart and Reed and captured, but realised that an alternative Mel and Doctor were due to land in the same place as them and quickly escaped back to their TARDIS and left.

The other Doctor and Mel successfully landed on Puxatornee, and were captured and interrogated by the new history's Lt. Stuart and Reed before the old history's Reed and Stuart arrived to help them escape, but were killed shortly afterwards. The new history's Stuart and Reed then forced the Doctor and Mel to take them back thirty years so that they could prevent the president's death and make peace with Slithergees. The Doctor and Mel took them back to 3060 to see their new history, which was the first version before he and Mel showed up. Lt Stuart and Reed then ordered the Doctor to take them back to the previous day to prevent their earlier selves from time travelling, but the Doctor couldn't as that history no longer existed. The Doctor worked out that an alternative version of himself and Mel were due to land and took off in the TARDIS just as their earlier selves showed up.

Winning a free vacation from G715, the Doctor and Mel found themselves part of an alien expedition to experience the Earth's "rock 'n' roll years" at 1959 Disneyland. After the tour was detoured to South Wales, the Doctor discovered that the last Chimeron queen, Delta, was amongst their party, hiding with her newborn from the vicious Bannermen, mercenaries set on genocide. After defeating the Bannermen by causing their leader, Gavrok, to fall into his own trap, he bid goodbye to Delta, her daughter and a human, Billy, who had fallen in love with Delta, as they departed for the Chimeron hatchery.

Arriving in Pompeii on 23 August 79, the Doctor became convinced that he was destined to live out the rest of his days on Earth when the TARDIS was lost in an earthquake, setting in motion events he had already seen the result of in his fifth incarnation. Mel, unwilling to give up, managed to locate the TARDIS and prove to the Doctor that the fact that his TARDIS had been found buried in the ruins of the city didn't mean that they were trapped on Earth. Allowing the TARDIS to be buried in ash, the Doctor piloted it to the same spot nearly one-thousand-and-nine-hundred years later, allowing it to be discovered by UNIT and setting in motion the events which had unfolded since their arrival in Pompeii.

The Doctor and Mel travelled to Iceworld, where they joined Sabalom Glitz and Ace, a teenage girl from 1987 Earth, on a search to find a treasure guarded by the "dragon" living in the caverns. During the search the Doctor ended up dangling over a sheer drop whilst travelling to follow the map to the supposed treasure, (TV: Dragonfire [+]Loading...["Dragonfire (TV story)"]) unaware he was being watched by an echo of Clara Oswald, (TV: The Name of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Name of the Doctor (TV story)"]) until Glitz came to his aid. The group discovered that the dragon was in fact a biomechanoid tasked with guarding the Dragonfire, a power source sought by exiled criminal Kane to power Iceworld, his prison ship, and return to his home planet to get revenge. However, Kane committed suicide when the Doctor showed him his planet no longer existed and that there was no-one for Kane to enact vengeance upon. (TV: Dragonfire [+]Loading...["Dragonfire (TV story)"])

Deducing that Ace had been deposited on Iceworld by his old foe Fenric, (TV: The Curse of Fenric [+]Loading...["The Curse of Fenric (TV story)"]) and that he could no longer avoid his responsibilities to Time, the Doctor planted an idea in Mel's head, encouraging her to stay with Glitz with the intention to put him on the right path, and to urge the Doctor to take Ace with him. (PROSE: Head Games [+]Loading...["Head Games (novel)"]) His manipulations were successful, and he gained Ace as a new companion, offering to take her back home to Perivale through "the scenic route".

Early travels with Ace[[edit] | [edit source]]

While exploring the TARDIS, Ace came across a locked room containing a window that visualised Gallifrey during the Doctor's childhood, which the Doctor had bought in his second incarnation. Feeling that it served as nothing more than a reminder of the past, the Doctor set about sealing the room off. (PROSE: uPVC [+]Loading...["uPVC (short story)"])

While observing the aurora borealis from space, the Doctor and Ace saw a spaceship being shot down by the American Air Defense. Following the spaceship to a Macy's department store in New York City, the Doctor and Ace found that the ship belonged to a Stellogratt, savage hunters enslaved by the K'Rin to be used as weapons in their war against the Elayyn, and that the Stellogratt's neural inhibitor had been damaged. Working with the Macy's overnight staff, the Doctor and Ace were able to overpower the Stellogratt, and then made to return it home in the TARDIS.

The Doctor returned to Shoreditch in November 1963 to take care of events he had set in motion during his first incarnation, first by retrieving the Hand of Omega. His mission was disrupted by the Renegade and Imperial Daleks, despite him anticipating one faction showing up, placing the Doctor, Ace and the Intrusion Counter-Measures Group in the crossfire of the Imperial-Renegade Dalek Civil War, prompting the Doctor to join forces with Counter Measures leaders, Group Captain Ian Gilmore and Professor Rachel Jensen. (TV: Remembrance of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)"])

That night, the Doctor was about to investigate someone's scream, only to see the Time Lord messenger who had given him a mission to alter the creation of the Daleks in his fourth life. The messenger warned him that the Daleks planned to wage War on the Time Lords and warned him of an Imperial Slyther. Aware that the Slyther was looking for the Hand of Omega, but that it would only be able to locate traces of its chronon signature, the Doctor used the undertaker's long johns to lure the creature to a electricity substation, electrocuting its Dalekanium implants to kill it. After again warning the Doctor of the coming Time War, the Time Lord departed with the remains of the cyborg creature, so the Doctor left (PROSE: The Slyther of Shoreditch [+]Loading...["The Slyther of Shoreditch (short story)"]) to Harry's cafe for tea and to think over his next actions.

Discovering that Davros was now the Dalek Emperor, the Doctor fulfilled his fanatical desire to give the Daleks the power of time travel against them, by goading Davros into using the Hand (TV: Remembrance of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)"]) on Skaro's second sun (PROSE: The Stranger [+]Loading...["The Stranger (short story)"]) to create a new Eye of Harmony, but instead resulted in Skaro's sun going supernova, destroying Skaro, as the Doctor had pre-programmed the stellar manipulator to do. With only the Supreme Dalek of the Renegade faction left to deal with, the Doctor managed to convince it that it no longer held a purpose, and it self-destructed. (TV: Remembrance of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)"]) After leaving Earth, the Doctor found signs of a temporal abnormality at the Coal Hill School of 2016, but got distracted before he could further investigate.

After being trapped in a Temporal Plexus for eight days, the Doctor and Ace escaped by exploding a star, but landed on a Skaro where the Daleks were a benevolent species regarded as great philosophers and medics, with even the Time Lords seeking them out for medical aid. Realising that something had changed history on a cosmic scale, the Doctor discovered that he himself had created this new timeline in his escape from the Plexus, just as the alternate universe started to decay. Despite Ace's protests, the Doctor took the TARDIS back into the Plexus, and negated the timeline of the peaceful Daleks by merging with their past selves in their escape from the exploding star. The Doctor then made a quick trip to Skaro to confirm the restoration of the proper timeline. (PROSE: The Ripple Effect [+]Loading...["The Ripple Effect (short story)"])

After leaving Ace with his old friend Naikosiai in 1926 Africa, (PROSE: Prelude Birthright [+]Loading...["Prelude Birthright (short story)"]) the Doctor took up residence at Ercildoune in Scotland during the 13th century, using it as a base from which to set out on various travels for roughly two years.

The Doctor visited 1909 London, and saved Barbara Wright's grandfather, Ernie, from being arrested for a murder he did not commit. He then travelled to Soho, (PROSE: Birthright [+]Loading...["Birthright (novel)"]) to visit Margaret Waterfield at 39 Dean Street and warn her of Bernice Summerfield's imminent arrival. Next, he visited Coutts Bank in 1868 London with Victoria Waterfield.

When the Fourth Doctor used his TARDIS tuner to begin a temporal meta-collision with his other incarnations, the Seventh Doctor learnt that Earth was under threat from a pandimensional entity that had trapped his fourth incarnation in his TARDIS. While the Seventh Doctor argued with his other incarnations, the War Doctor used encoded messages from the Sixth Doctor to stop the invasion before it began, and the Sixth Doctor installed a way to expel the entity from the Fourth Doctor's TARDIS. With the crisis over, the Seventh Doctor went off to thwart "evil". (WC: Doctors Assemble! [+]Loading...["Doctors Assemble! (webcast)"])

The Doctor visited the court of Elizabeth I, and persuaded her to send Jared Khan on a fool's errand, spent five years teaching Mikhail Popov English in St Petersburg so that he could help Bernice in London, and arranged for Herbert Asquith to have Bernice released from Holloway Prison.

When Queen Ch'tizz of the Charrl arrived at Ercildoune looking for the TARDIS, the Doctor left Scotland permanently, but not before asking Jared Khan to travel through the glen and advising him to "follow the bonny bonny road should anyone give [him] the choice".

The Doctor and Ace fought the Valeyard in Victorian England, where he had been posing as Jack the Ripper to feed the Dark Matrix with the energies of the women he killed. The Valeyard launched an attack on all of the Doctor's lives, but the Seventh Doctor managed to shield himself, at the cost of his memories. Reduced to an amnesiac cardsharp called "Johnny", the Doctor managed to regain his memory, and convinced the Dark Matrix that the Valeyard was using it. Confronting him, the Dark Matrix apparently killed the Valeyard with a blast of energy. (PROSE: Matrix [+]Loading...["Matrix (novel)"])

Travelling to Kar-Charrat to return some overdue library books, the Doctor reunited with his old friend, Elgin, who proclaimed to have warded off some Dalek attacks. However, the Daleks had never left, and had used time corridor technology to deploy hidden Dalek pods on every planet in the sector to wait for a time-sensitive to revive them. After a duplicate of a captured Ace infiltrated the base and successfully downloaded the collective knowledge of the entire universe into a Dalek test subject, who went out of control, the Doctor ventured on to the planet's surface, and discovered that the famous Kar-Charrat ziggurat was a Dalek pod. The Doctor was then forced to surrender to the Daleks to ensure Ace's safety, and was connected to the Wetworks so his mind could be used to process the data. While he appeared to be killed in the process to the Daleks, the Doctor's mind was absorbed into the Wetworks, where he made contact with the Kar-Charratans, natives enslaved by Elgin in order to enable the Wetworks to function, and promised to set them free.

Aided by the Kar-Charratans, the Doctor escaped the Daleks with Ace, Elgin, Bev Tarrant, and Prink, but they were intercepted by the duplicate Ace, who threatened to kill Elgin, but was destroyed by Prink's sacrifice. With Ace pretending to be her own duplicate to get past the Daleks, the Doctor proceeded to the Wetworks with the intention of destroying it. At the facility, the Doctor witnessed the Dalek test subject and the Dalek Supreme arguing, due to the test subject having obtained a conscience and refusing to obey the Dalek Supreme's order to destroy the facility. Leaving after deeming their mission a failure, the Supreme Dalek left the Special Weapons Dalek to kill the test subject, but the facility was destroyed by Ace's Nitro-9 before it could, the explosion also freeing the Kar-Charratans.

The TARDIS detected a temporal distortion on Earth, which threatened to merge the 1960s and the 1970s and generate a black hole. To find its cause, the Doctor dropped Ace in the 1960s with a tracking device and sent her to make contact with Counter-Measures, while he himself would do the same thing a decade later; he would keep in contact with Ace thanks to the Counter-Measures' team progressively remembering what happened ten years earlier. The two teams, in their respective times, tracked down the source of the distortion back to Kazan and his Rocket Men's hideout, and saw that the cause was "Puncheon", a survivor of a failed experiment in time travel who had been split in two and dispersed through time. With the help of Ian Gilmore, the Doctor managed to travel back to the 1960s, save Ace from what could have been a fatal fall and reunite the two parts of "Puncheon", thus putting and end to the distortion.

Ace and the Doctor in the TARDIS, preparing to land in Mesopotamia. (PROSE: The New Adventures Prologue [+]Loading...["The New Adventures Prologue (short story)"])

Receiving a warning from his fourth incarnation about a Time Lord demon called the Timewyrm, the Doctor and Ace traced a time anomaly to the kingdom of Uruk in Ancient Mesopotamia, where they joined an expedition, led by Gilgamesh, to a kingdom called Kish. The Doctor was kidnapped by followers of Ishtar, the "goddess of Love and War", but was saved by Ace. Having learnt that Ishtar, in reality a stranded alien named Qataka, planned to influence the world using radio transmitters, the Doctor sent Ace off to investigate Utnapishtim, before entering her inner sanctum.

Captured by Ishtar, she attempted to steal his mind in order to gain the knowledge of time travel. After Kish was attacked by a city-like spaceship operated by Ace and her Uruk allies, the Doctor tricked Ishtar into infecting herself with a computer virus. She survived, infiltrating his TARDIS and torturing his mind. The Doctor trapped her in the secondary control room and jettisoned it into the time vortex. After uniting Kish and Uruk, the Doctor was horrified to discover that Ishtar had survived and was now a living time machine known as the Timewyrm. Realising her powers could destroy time completely, the Doctor set off on a mission to destroy her. (PROSE: Timewyrm: Genesys [+]Loading...["Timewyrm: Genesys (novel)"])

In pursuit of the Timewyrm, the Doctor piloted the TARDIS to a divergent version of 1950s Earth from a timeline where the Nazis had won World War II and were now rulers of the whole planet, but he and Ace were accused of being resistance fighters and arrested by Anthony Rupert Hemmings. Escaping imprisonment, and with the TARDIS in the possession of Adolf Hitler, the Doctor witnessed the murder of a Reichsinspektor General and the planting of an incriminating package on him before he died. Posing as the General, the Doctor began working with General Otto Strasser in order to gather information on the new timeline, but Hemmings exposed both his and Ace's true identities.

Escaping in the TARDIS, the Doctor travelled to 1926 and gained Hitler's trust by giving him the faith to begin World War II. Skipping forward in time, he arrived in 1936, where he was hailed by the Nazis and Hitler as a "hero", becoming his personal advisor. Realising the Timewyrm was controlling Hitler's mind to change history, the Doctor visited him at points when the Nazis invaded various countries across the world. However, he discovered his old enemy, the War Chief, was amongst Hitler's closest allies. The Doctor stopped the War Chief's plots of stealing his remaining regenerations, killing Ace as a human sacrifice and building a Nazi army to conquer the galaxy. Finally, after destroying the War Chief and his new "War Lords," the Doctor visited Hitler in 1940 and drove the Timewyrm out of his body, banishing her into the time vortex.

Beginnings as Time's champion[[edit] | [edit source]]

While dining at an Ealing café, the Doctor and Ace were alerted to an incursion on the TARDIS, and returned to find a creature trying to leech of its power, but was stuck between the "inside" and "outside" of the TARDIS. Before the Doctor could find a way to fight off the creature, the TARDIS collided with an experimental time vessel from ancient Gallifrey, the Time Scaphe, which activated the Banshee Circuits and caused the TARDIS to reconfigure itself into a multi-dimensional city, which the Doctor called a SARDIT. The creature, now calling itself "the Process", attempted to regain the "Future" which the Doctor had "stolen" by attempting to kill him, but failed.

Realising that the fluidity of time within the city had created three zones representing the Past, Present, and Future, and that the Process had made itself ruler of the city while using insectoid guards created from the Scaphe crew to search the city for the Future in exchange for food, the recovering Doctor trapped the Process in an Architectural Configuration until it died. A younger Process summoned the egg from which it had hatched, intending to ensure its Future and the creation of a new world by supervising its own birth, but Vael, intending to kill the Doctor, accidentally turned the full force of his pseudo-pyrokinetic mind against the egg, incinerating it and preventing the Process and its timeline from coming into being. (PROSE: Cat's Cradle: Time's Crucible [+]Loading...["Cat's Cradle: Time's Crucible (novel)"])

After the TARDIS was damaged by the Process, it landed in the near future Earth. This Earth was ravaged by pollution with the uber-rich elite of the world doing nothing to stop it and instead putting their faith in a plan by the leader of the Butler Corporation (Matthew O'Hara) to transfer their minds into robotic bodies. The Doctor discovered this plan and began building a counterplan.

To do this, he sent Ace to Turkey to unearth a psychic named Vincent Wheaton held in suspended animation and lured an environmentalist named Justine to meet Vincent and serve as the "primer" for Vincent's attack on the Butler Corporation's secret facility. This plan went off largely without a hitch but ran into a snag at the last step when Justine's love for Vincent overruled her rage towards the Butler Corporation. Fortunately, O'Hara grabbed Vincent and triggered the attack - which massacred the Butler Corporation employees at the facility. In the aftermath of the Butler Corporation's plans failing, the elite decided to put their money into fixing the planet instead of escaping it.

Taking Ace home[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Doctor took Ace to the last resting place of the Wraiths interdimensional beings that existed in multiple timelines simultaneously, and the home of the Astingir, where the Doctor planned to check on the Quantum Anvil - a temporal possibility engine created by the Astingir in their war with the Wraiths which shattered the time streams of the latter into infinite potential outcomes leaving them intangible. He hoped Ace would make contact with the Anvil, enabling her to act as an emissary with the Wraiths. Ace did make contact with the Anvil which imbued her with the ability to commune with the Wraiths and became angered when the Doctor admitted that this had been why they'd come, as he hoped that she would act as an emissary for the Wraiths when the time came to establish peace between them and the Astingir. They were attacked by a hoard of Astingir and while trying to evade them, Ace used a can of Nitro-9 to distract them but ended up collapsing the ground beneath them, killing the entire group in the process. She was so traumatised by this that once they returned to to the TARDIS, she declared that she was leaving the Doctor. (PROSE: At Childhood's End [+]Loading...["At Childhood's End (novel)"])

Falling out on Heaven[[edit] | [edit source]]

Following the funeral of Ace's friend Julian Milton, the Doctor brought the TARDIS to 2570 Heaven, where the pair became friends with a group called the Travellers. The Doctor then helped Professor Bernice Summerfield open the way to a Heavenite observatory, and deciphered writing they found to discover a plot by the Hoothi to use Heaven to create an army of the dead. Entering Puterspace, the Doctor was attacked by the Vacuum Church, working in league with the Hoothi, and forced to relive the slow death of his third incarnation, until he was freed by Christopher, a psychic Traveller.

Realising the danger the falling Hoothi fibres would cause, the Doctor ordered Bernice to quickly unearth the observatory, which could detect otherwise invisible Hoothi spheres, and, knowing that the pyrokinetic Traveller Jan Rydd, whom Ace had fallen in love with, had been infected by a fibre, the Doctor ordered him to travel to the sphere. After using Brother Phaedrus of the Vacuum Church to summon the sphere to Puterspace, the Doctor used Christopher to send a message to Jan to ignite the sphere, killing himself in the process. With Heaven safe, the Doctor left to wander the Vortex alone for a while. (PROSE: Love and War [+]Loading...["Love and War (novel)"])

The Doctor encountered the Scourge whilst dreaming on the astral plane and pretended to go along with their plans to conquer Earth. He made arrangements to surrender Earth to the Scourge at Pinehill Crest Hotel, allowing them to place their shadow on him as security and devising a trap to banish them instead. He brought Ace and Benny along, however his plan to banish the Scourge when they attempted to arrive on Earth failed as they'd anticipated his betrayal. They activated their shadow to take him over, however he entered a coma to hold back the Scourge soldier in his mind which also delayed their travel to Earth. Benny used a psychic, Annie Carpenter, who had been the Scourge's bridgehead to make contact with him and enter his mind. Benny's efforts to help him appeared to fail as he fell into the Scourge group mind, however from there he devised a plan and contacted Ace. Benny entered his mind a second time and they prevailed against the Scourge soldier, allowing him to awaken and rally the humans at the hotel to deprive the Scourge of their power over humanity so he could banish them.

The Timewyrm confronted him in the TARDIS and revealed it had discarded its physical form to exist only in Puterspace, pulling him in and leaving him alone. As he planned when it went to feed on the distortions in history the Timewyrm inadvertently corrected the timeline, weakening it enough that he was able to trap it when it returned to Puterspace.

After they, the Intrusion Counter-Measures Group, the Australian military, an Aboriginal man named Daku Darana, and peace activist Jonquil Sharrow found and investigated the spaceship, a snake-like alien was found on Mr Pendry, which killed him when it was removed with a machete.

After Rachel and Allison were kidnapped by Delafield and Sharron, the Doctor and company escaped the coming sandstorm to Edinburgh. They returned to the Outback and held a funeral for the dead Markarian on the sacred ground. Living Markarians appeared and Ace volunteered to interface with them, where she learned they were "Feds" who traced some "Crooks" to Earth millennia prior. The Crooks hid their ships in volcanoes and assimilated into human populations.

Ace informed the Doctor of what she learned, including that Delafield and Jonquil were Crooks who manipulated their way to find their ship in the Outback. She also learned that Rachel and Allison were taken to the island of San Benedicto where the Crooks had one of their ships operational.

Forced to cooperate for Ace's life, the Doctor discovered that the TARDIS in which Klein had arrived had dematerialised, forcing her to demand use of the TARDIS the Doctor and Ace had arrived in. Returning to Colditz Castle, the Doctor manipulated Kurtz, a duty-bound officer, into exposing Klein, and prevented Klein's timeline from ever coming about by locating the CD-player Ace had left behind.

Taking Ace into a cabin after she fell into a lake, the TARDIS trio witnessed a series of deaths amongst the group of academics staying there, and discovered that they were experimenting with time with a device they called "the Bartholomew transactor", so they could send a message back to warn their past selves about misdiagnosing a deceased girl named Edie O'Neil. However, the interference with the timeline caused Edie to be transformed into a zombie-like state of limbo, and the Doctor realised that the misdiagnosis had never been genuine, and that the whole series of events were part of a time experiment conducted by Major Dickens.

Intending to correct the academics' mistake, the Doctor travelled back to undo the damage, but was unable to bring himself to kill the child, allowing the zombie-Edie to come into being.

He later went mountaineering with Ace, where they discovered a dead body in one of the caves. He thought some kind of temporal anomaly going on and discovered Karren's tape recorder with a warning on it, and then a wall of messages in a lot of different languages.

Lured into the Celestial Toyroom, the Doctor, Ace and Hex managed to aid a group of humans in defeating the Toymaker, trapping him inside a ventriloquist's doll. In order to prevent him from ever resurfacing, the Doctor arranged for Ace and Hex to attend to the running of a mock-up sanatorium where he and the various other guests were kept unaware of their true situation. Despite their best efforts, the Doctor uncovered his own plan and the Toymaker resurfaced and managed to trick the humans into playing against him for their greatest desires in a bid to reassert himself as controller of the Toyroom. However, Swapnil Khan, the final player, managed to trap him in a stalemate, enabling his daughter, Queenie Glasscock, and the three travellers to escape the Toyroom and return to the real world, (AUDIO: The Magic Mousetrap [+]Loading...["The Magic Mousetrap (audio story)"]) though the Doctor was now aware of Fenric's impending return, having found a chess set in the sanatorium. (AUDIO: Gods and Monsters [+]Loading...["Gods and Monsters (audio story)"])

Landing on Bliss, a jungle planet under Dalek attack, the Doctor set out to ensure that an atrocity which was due to be committed in the coming hours would happen. While Ace and Hex aided the base personnel in a battle with the Daleks, the Doctor discovered that Toshio Shimura, a local professor, had combined larvae and piranha locust DNA to create a new species called the Kiseibya, created to be the natural predator of the Daleks. But, the Kiseibya, after decimating the Dalek forces, quickly became uncontrollable, and the Doctor planned to blow up the base and slaughter the Kiseibya himself, but Beth Stokes, a former prisoner of the Daleks, chose to take his place, staying behind to finish the job.

The TARDIS next landed in the Crimea in 1854, where Hex spent a considerable period recovering from the trauma he had experienced on Bliss by providing assistance to the wounded, where he met his idol, Florence Nightingale. Discovering that they were already caught up in events prior to their arrival, the Doctor and Ace travelled back a short period of time, only to be accused of being spies. Whilst they attempted to convince their captors otherwise, they witnessed the exterior shell of the TARDIS shatter after the HADS was activated by a direct hit from cannon fire, leaving them stranded. After the TARDIS reformed its shell without its regular colouration, the Doctor and Ace hurried to pick up Hex. Arriving just too late to prevent Hex from being shot, the Doctor set a course for St Gart's Bankside Hospital. (AUDIO: The Angel of Scutari [+]Loading...["The Angel of Scutari (audio story)"])

Arriving in 2025, the Doctor managed to successfully perform surgery on Hex, saving his life. Realising that London was under quarantine, he was captured by Nimrod and the Forge and forced to find a solution to stop the infection spreading. Nimrod told Hex that. After Cassie was resurrected, the Doctor convinced her to attack Nimrod by telling her of all the important mile stones in Hex's life that Nimrod took from her. The Doctor admitted to Hex that he was extremely proud of him, but Hex, having been told by Nimrod that the Doctor had been witness to his mother's death, decided to depart the TARDIS in anger.

The Doctor confronts Nobody No-One. (AUDIO: A Death in the Family [+]Loading...["A Death in the Family (audio story)"])

Tracking down a Time Lord casket which Forge agent Lysandra Aristedes claimed was present within the Forge Vault, the Doctor discovered that it contained the unconscious body of an older version of himself. Witnessing his future self warning them about the return of Nobody No-One, he was forced to sacrifice himself to stop No-One. Resurrected by Ace, with help from his future self, the Doctor defeated No-One with the help of Evelyn Smythe, who convinced Hex that it wasn't the Doctor's fault that his mother died. After witnessing Evelyn's death, Hex decided to rejoin the TARDIS crew. (AUDIO: A Death in the Family [+]Loading...["A Death in the Family (audio story)"])

Shortly afterwards, the TARDIS landed in 1930s Alaska, with the Doctor intending to investigate a strange ice formation. The travellers soon met an expedition team looking for an ancient chamber containing "horrors from the dawn of time", and the Doctor and Ace became separated from Hex and the expedition team. Presumed dead, the pair arrived at what appeared to be an island psychiatric facility and met CP Doveday, a poet who claimed to live on the island, who took them to the person in charge. There, the Doctor learned that the entire facility was in fact a prison for three dormant Karnas'koi. (AUDIO: Lurkers at Sunlight's Edge [+]Loading...["Lurkers at Sunlight's Edge (audio story)"])

Growing a new TARDIS with a black police box exterior, the Doctor left Hex and Ace, and began travelling on his own for a while, (AUDIO: Black and White [+]Loading...["Black and White (audio story)"]) sending the "White TARDIS" to an alternative timeline 1989 to test his companions. (AUDIO: Protect and Survive [+]Loading...["Protect and Survive (audio story)"])

He tested the navigation circuits of the black TARDIS by first travelling to the Lorelei on Kaldor. He met with Liv Chenka who he convinced to do more investigation into the death of Tal Karus. He activated the Voc Robots. He discovered that the robots weren't killing the crew this time, it was Farel as he wanted to discredit the robots. (AUDIO: Robophobia [+]Loading...["Robophobia (audio story)"])

The Doctor thought that the black TARDIS was miss behaving when he apparently arrived in 16th century Florence. When he encountered Garilund, she told him that he was at a Poldagon science centre and that they were experimenting on human duplicates. He later had to deal with the First Nuncio who wanted to use the facility to create biologically superior super soldiers for their war. (AUDIO: The Doomsday Quatrain [+]Loading...["The Doomsday Quatrain (audio story)"])

The Doctor landed at a military base at Fulton Down and discovered that they were experimenting with people's fears as part of the Blue Fire Project. The project involved an elder god called the Mi'en Kalarash who was manipulating the nightmares of the personnel. One of the personnel was Sally Morgan who decided to join the Doctor on his adventures. (AUDIO: House of Blue Fire [+]Loading...["House of Blue Fire (audio story)"])

He later recruited Lysandra Aristedes to the cause, sending her and Sally on missions to stop the elder gods. (AUDIO: Black and White [+]Loading...["Black and White (audio story)"]) On one such mission, he sent Lysandra and Sally into Lysandra's past at the Forge whilst transporting an alien. The Doctor wanted to take Derleth from the Forge as they planned to clone him to use as a weapon. (AUDIO: Project: Nirvana [+]Loading...["Project Nirvana (audio story)","Project: Nirvana"])

Ace and Hex later discovered that he had left them in the TARDIS and that he set a trap for Peggy and Albert in an alternative version of 1989. (AUDIO: Protect and Survive [+]Loading...["Protect and Survive (audio story)"])

The Black TARDIS arrived in 5th century Denmark, where the Doctor became stranded when the Black TARDIS, containing Sally and Lysandra, departed for an alternative 1989. The Doctor proceeded to leave clues for Ace, Hex, Sally and Lysandra to restore the original TARDIS and destroy the Black TARDIS by retrieving an artefact called Weyland's shield, before being kidnapped (AUDIO: Black and White [+]Loading...["Black and White (audio story)"]) by Fenric and taken to a pocket universe.

Freed by his friends after they deciphered his instructions, the Doctor learned that Fenric was playing a game against another Elder God called Weyland for control of Weyland's shield, which could grant omnipotence to an Elder God, and that they had been used as pawns by Weyland to help him win the game against Fenric. As he was destined to become the quintessential pawn in Weyland's plan, Hex managed to banish Weyland and stop the game, but became possessed by Fenric, and thus sacrificed himself to prevent Fenric from permanently gaining power over him. (AUDIO: Gods and Monsters [+]Loading...["Gods and Monsters (audio story)"])

Seeming unfazed by Hex's apparent death, the Doctor returned Lysandra and Sally to their homes, and intended to take Ace somewhere to take her mind off of Hex, but the grieving Ace demanded the Doctor tell Hex's grandmother what happened to him. Landing in 2020s Liverpool, the Doctor informed Hilda Schofield of her grandson's death and organised a wake for him.

However, the Doctor soon found Hex to be alive and acting as a local crime lord named "Hector Thomas", having had his memories removed by an Elemental named Koloon after Hex made a deal to be removed from the Elder Gods' realm and returned to Liverpool. From this revelation, the Doctor managed to locate Koloon, but was unable to prevent Hex's memories from being destroyed. Enraged, the Doctor banished Koloon back to realm of the Elder Gods with a warning to fear him, and was forced by Ace, who was unwilling to accept the death of Hex or the loss of his memories, to take Hector with them in the TARDIS. (AUDIO: Afterlife [+]Loading...["Afterlife (audio story)"])

Taking Hector on a trip round the universe's beauty spots, the Doctor became worried when Hector started to pilot the TARDIS. The Doctor realised that Hector was infected by the Swarm, and had piloted them to Titan Base in 4920. He found out that the Swarm was created from the Saturnian plague. After making sure that his own personal history remained intact and the virus was released, the Doctor and Ace were knocked out by Hector. Hector then piloted the TARDIS two centuries into the future, where the Doctor learnt that the Nucleus of the Swarm had invaded the Hypernet in the interim. He entered the Hypernet with Ace to destroy the nucleus, but warned her that if they died in the Hypernet she would become braindead in the real world. With his initial plan failed, the Doctor used a now immune Hector to disrupt the Nucleus focus long enough for Ace to destroy the body. (AUDIO: Revenge of the Swarm [+]Loading...["Revenge of the Swarm (audio story)"])

The Doctor took Hector to Athens in 5th century BC to recuperate. He decided to help Aristophanes to put on a play. When he heard that there was a strange plague, he started to investigate the cause. He discovered that Tyrgius was an alien beatle and that Cleon had damaged his disguise. He was later arrested for treason and placed in prison. He warned Hector of using the mask when he claimed to be Dionysus. Using his knowledge of Athenian law he put his case against the Athenian jury to plead for their release and was successful. Later, he had to make a version of Tyrgius' mask to stop Cleon's controlled army. He used Aristophenes' play to stop the war. (AUDIO: Mask of Tragedy [+]Loading...["Mask of Tragedy (audio story)"])

At Hector's request the Doctor took him back to Liverpool. The TARDIS notified him of something odd going on and the Doctor traced it to Rufus Stone. When he went to accost Rufus, Praska transmated to her flagship, as she knew he could stop their plans. The Doctor managed to escape the craft and floated down to Liverpool using his umbrella. He protected the TARDIS when the Hirudine tried to attack it. Hector later helped him recover, but the Doctor realised some of Hex's memories were coming through. He sensed another force at work in Liverpool and learned that it was To'Koth. The Doctor helped To'Koth get back to his own realm to die, though it caused him and the TARDIS tremendous pain. Ace helped him keep sane when this happened. With his last breath, To'Koth brokered a truce between the Doctor and the Elder gods. The Doctor left Hex with Sally Morgan but visited 15 years later and saw Hex's daughter Cassandra. (AUDIO: Signs and Wonders [+]Loading...["Signs and Wonders (audio story)"])

Reunited with Mel[[edit] | [edit source]]

After the Doctor offered Ace the chance to practice piloting the TARDIS, she inadvertently materialised inside a facility run by the Porcian Chimbly. Discovering that they were being manipulated through the use of a captured Resurrectionist, the Doctor tricked Chimbly into firing on the cage apparatus imprisoning it, simultaneously freeing the tortured creature and the race he had enslaved from its psychic control. (AUDIO: You Are the Doctor [+]Loading...["You Are the Doctor (audio story)"])

After visiting a seemingly haunted house where he solved a murder mystery, (AUDIO: Come Die With Me [+]Loading...["Come Die With Me (audio story)"]) and becoming involved in a heist in the Grand Betelgeuse Hotel, (AUDIO: The Grand Betelgeuse Hotel [+]Loading...["The Grand Betelgeuse Hotel (audio story)"]) the Doctor managed to stop a Galparian plot to eradicate all life on Earth in order to sell the planet. Realising that their recent trips had all been attempts by the TARDIS to track down "an old friend", the Doctor offered to give it a little help. (AUDIO: Dead to the World [+]Loading...["Dead to the World (audio story)"])

The Doctor helped the TARDIS locate Mel on Ricosta. He was captured by Lefty Lonnigan when he trespassed on his land and was then sent to the Speravores to be fed on, making them think he was Lefty. He realised that he was being used in a con. He later tried to negotiate for the planet's release. (AUDIO: A Life of Crime [+]Loading...["A Life of Crime (audio story)"])

Shortly afterwards, the Doctor brought his friends to Spain but unwittingly during the Spanish Civil War. He encountered Juan Romero and helped look after his men after a bombing raid. Travelling to the nearest town, he discovered that there was a God Seed nearby and vowed to destroy it. However, it took energy from the TARDIS which worried the Doctor. (AUDIO: Fiesta of the Damned [+]Loading...["Fiesta of the Damned (audio story)"])

The Doctor landed on Prosper again, but during a war 100 years later. He was appalled at what had happened in his absence and that the mineral named after him had caused this. He investigated what was happening and discovered that Alonso was also the Mogera leader. Alonso told him that he was practising eugenics to create a perfect colony and to kill the Mogera.

The Doctor wanted to visit Dashrah but had to land on Parking in order to get there. Kempton arrested him for a parking violation. Kempton stole his TARDIS key and later found that the TARDIS was missing. He discovered that there was a terrorist cell Free Parkers and helped the tribe of the lost to locate them with Ace's help. He thought something more sinister at work. Kempton brought him to the fable first ship of the tribe. (AUDIO: The High Price of Parking [+]Loading...["The High Price of Parking (audio story)"])

The Doctor landed in a shipbuilding yard, shortly after a murder. He had traced an alien signal as he landed and thought that it was the murderer. When digital technology started to blow up in the presence of Mel, he managed to cure her by taking her through the Eorgm's gate. He learnt that the Eorgm couldn't stand digital technology and found a way to diminish their power so that he could stop their engine. (AUDIO: The Blood Furnace [+]Loading...["The Blood Furnace (audio story)"])

He decided to deal with some unfinished business. He went to the Silurian parliament in 2085 to negotiate, after the attempt by Icthar the previous year. He learnt from Mel that the Silurians wanted to provoke nuclear war. Ace didn't trust his plans and locked him up. The Doctor told them of a time in the future where both races could co-exist after the surface was ravaged by solar flares. (AUDIO: The Silurian Candidate [+]Loading...["The Silurian Candidate (audio story)"])

The Doctor discovered a time ripple and went to investigate it, leaving Ace in 1961 while he went with Mel to 2017. He became concerned when Mel started to think about an alternative history. This was greater worsened when there was a mission to Mars. He was arrested by Marsden for making a fuss about the wrong history. He was later briefed by Sokolov about the Mars mission and managed to escape from him in an explosion. The started to worry that he, Ace and Mel might cease to exist. He went with Mel to the base on Mars and discovered a message from the future. (AUDIO: Red Planets [+]Loading...["Red Planets (audio story)"])

The Doctor detected some strange signals and traced them to a tower block in the North of England which was hidden behind a perception filter. He was saved from "Zombies" by Ruck, who told him about the situation in the tower block. The Doctor encountered Isobel who told him about Arkallax and his plans. The Doctor realised that Arkallax was the building. He became possessed by Arkallax but was able to fight with him for control. He saved Ace and Jan when Arkallax made them fall to their death. After defeating Arkallax, Mel knocked him out and stole the TARDIS. (AUDIO: The Dispossessed [+]Loading...["The Dispossessed (audio story)"])

He was placed in a prison but was broken out by Narvin who informed him that Josiah W. Dogbolter was the president of the solar system. The Doctor told Narvin that there must be a simple solution to stop Dogbolter's manipulation than the Celestial Intervention Agency's more drastic solutions. Hob used the Quantum Possibility Engine to creat an alternate universe where the Doctor was a cleaner. In this universe, the Doctor corrected Narvin's equations and was fired for it. Dogbolter changed time again so that he was a public enemy instead. After Mel changed the timeline to make the Doctor well known, and he manipulated the media perception of the Krasi so that they would leave. He chastised Mel for her grand plans and not telling him about the debt, but ultimately forgave her.

Ace on Gallifrey[[edit] | [edit source]]

In one possible outcome, Ace started a life as a Time Lord on Gallifrey. (PROSE: At Childhood's End [+]Loading...["At Childhood's End (novel)"])

One account showed Ace winding up on a well-populated Gallifrey, being educated to become a Time Lord and joinign the Celestial Intervention Agency.

In one version of history, the Time Lords were all but wiped out, though Gallifrey remained intact. The Seventh Doctor was one of a few survivors, who, regretful of how they had misused their powers, made a pact on Micen Island at the Temple of the Fourth to keep watch on one another, and to adhere by certain oaths regulating when to use their power. One of their provisions was that they must never travel alone, always keeping a mortal companion.

Though he was still travelling with Ace, the Doctor, increasingly weary of how all his companions died or left him, built an android companion for himself, fast enough to dodge bullets. He named the boy Antimony and saw him as a son, but didn't tell him of his true origins. (WC: "No Child of Earth" [+]Part of Death Comes to Time, Loading...{"namedep":"No Child of Earth","1":"Death Comes to Time (webcast)"}) Together, the Doctor, Ace and Antimony worked to protect the citizens of Santiny from the brutal Canisian forces led by General Tannis.

They first landed on Tannis's own ship, where Ace "wandered off" and the other two were compelled to leave, landing on the ground and helping to free a group of officials held prisoner by the Canisians, dropping them off in a nearby forest to start a resistance movement under Senator Hawk. Before he could go and look for Ace, the Doctor received a summons to meet with another of the surviving Renegades, his old friend the Minister of Chance, at the Temple of the Fourth. There, the Minister informed him of the mysterious deaths of "the Saints", retired Time Lords Antenor and Valentine, on Earth, and asked him to take over the investigation with Antimony, while the Minister would take over on Santiny. Meanwhile, Ace was rescued from the Canisian ship by Castellan Casmus, another surviving Time Lord and old friend of the Doctor's, who took her to the deserted, but idyllic Gallifrey.

On Earth, the Doctor and Antimony, assisted by the human police officer Speedwell, discovered that the Saints had been murdered by a pair of vampire assassins, Nessican and Cain, seemingly to keep them quiet about temporal distortions they had been studying. The Doctor recognised these distortions as the side-effects of a Time Lord breaking their oath and misusing their power to manipulate time.

The Doctor visits the Kingmaker under Mount Plutarch for the last time. (WC: "Death Comes to Time" [+]Part of Death Comes to Time, Loading...{"namedep":"Death Comes to Time","1":"Death Comes to Time (webcast)"})

The grief-stricken Doctor returned alone to Gallifrey and met with the Kingmaker, begging her to intervene against Tannis. She insisted that she had no authority to act against Tannis, who had broken no Laws of Time, and revealed to the Doctor that the distortions were the work of the Minister of Chance, instead. She ordered him to use his powers to destroy the Minister, but the Doctor pledged to find another way. On his way out of the Kingmaker's cave, he was reunited with Ace, whom Casmus had trained as a Time Lord, only for her to return from Anima Persis to find Casmus dead, murdered by Tannis. Realising that Tannis would now try to invade the Earth based on Nessican's intelligence, the Doctor told Ace to return there to give the Brigadier's forces forewarning and advice on how to defeat the Canisians with their own tech.

Meanwhile, the Doctor went to Luria on Santiny and found the unstable Minister sulking on a mountain after using his powers to wipe out the entire Canisian ground force. He initially attempted to simply talk the Minister down from his insanity; when this failed, he used his powers revoked the Minister's TARDIS, ordering the now-marooned, regretful Time Lord to remain on Santiny and "face himself".

The Doctor destroys himself and Tannis in front of Stonehenge. (WC: "Death Comes to Time" [+]Part of Death Comes to Time, Loading...{"namedep":"Death Comes to Time","1":"Death Comes to Time (webcast)"})

The Doctor returned to Earth, where the Canisian forces, who had landed on Salisbury Plain, were in complete disarray. He sought out Tannis, whom he found trying to kill Ace near Stonehenge. The Doctor surprised Tannis by openly using his powers to force Tannis to let Ace go. Despite Ace's confused protests, the Doctor then echoed Casmus's sentiments that the Time Lords no longer had a place in the universe, even ones like him. After a final speech outlining this and saying goodbye to Ace, he used his power to seemingly wipe himself and Tannis from existence, ignoring Tannis's warning that this would "disrupt the course of time" and the he "would die too"; the Doctor's final words before the conflagration were a cryptic "I've been dead before". (WC: "Death Comes to Time" [+]Part of Death Comes to Time, Loading...{"namedep":"Death Comes to Time","1":"Death Comes to Time (webcast)"})

We don't have any place in this future, Tannis. It's their universe now. We can't walk amongst them — we never really could. We tried to be like them, or not to be like them, or to hide from them — and you became something less than them. They don't need our guidance any more, and they won't put up with your force. (…) I think… I'm tired. I'm tired, Ace. (…) Oh, come on, Tannis — if I just let you kill me, I couldn't live with myself. But Time must be left to its own devices. But you see, Tannis, I am one of those devices. I am the course of Time. I am a God of the Fourth. Now… die.The Seventh Doctor's apparent final speech. (WC: "Death Comes to Time"

Possible survival in the new age[[edit] | [edit source]]

Ace failed to find the Doctor's body, with only his iconic umbrella being left behind. After announcing his death to the Brigadier, Ace returned to the Kingmaker's cave, where the mysterious woman formally inducted her as the first new Time Lord of this new age. However, upon hearing that no body had been found, the Kingmaker also cast doubt over whether the Doctor was truly, fully dead in the way Ace had assumed, noting that an idea couldn't be killed, and the Time Lords of old were more ideas than people.

Relationship to the Eighth Doctor's era[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Seventh dying on Salisbury Plain as the last of the Time Lords, while still travelling with Ace, (WC: "Death Comes to Time" [+]Part of Death Comes to Time, Loading...{"namedep":"Death Comes to Time","1":"Death Comes to Time (webcast)"}) seemingly conflicted with the accounts of the Seventh Doctor's regeneration into the Eighth Doctor in 1999 San Francisco at a later point in his timeline when he was alone in the TARDIS, (TV: Doctor Who [+]Loading...["Doctor Who (TV story)"]) and with the fact that the Eighth Doctor would go on to interact with an intact Gallifrey and Time Lords. (PROSE: The Eight Doctors [+]Loading...["The Eight Doctors (novel)"])

Indeed, after being exposed to anti-time, the Eighth Doctor of one reality where he interacted with Gallifrey saw an alternate reality where the Time Lords had "terrible mind powers", (AUDIO: Zagreus [+]Loading...["Zagreus (audio story)"]) matching the mysterious powers which, in this account, Time Lords were said to inherently possess as "God[s] of the Fourth", despite being sworn never to use them. (WC: Death Comes to Time [+]Loading...["Death Comes to Time (webcast)"])

On the other hand, according to one account relevant to the Eighth Doctor's life, the Doctor's parents Ulysses and Penelope Gate knew that Tannis was a future threat to Gallifrey which the Doctor would play a key role in defeating; (PROSE: The Gallifrey Chronicles [+]Loading...["The Gallifrey Chronicles (novel)"]) another account dealing with this same version of the Eighth Doctor acknowledged the Canisian invasion as a recent event. (PROSE: Trading Futures [+]Loading...["Trading Futures (novel)"]) During a later stay in San Francisco trying to heal the scar in time left by his regeneration, the Eighth Doctor tried to call to the Time Lords for help, but his hypercube was intercepted by a youthful member of Faction Paradox, which should have been impossible after the Doctor sent it directly to Gallifrey. When the Doctor demanded answers from the boy, he suggested that this may have been because due to certain ongoing crises, Gallifrey was being "destroyed and undestroyed" repeatedly, with the Eighth Doctor currently existing in a Gallifrey-less universe wthout even realising it. (PROSE: Unnatural History [+]Loading...["Unnatural History (novel)"])

Info from Many Happy Returns & Evitability needs to be added

Having been informed that Ace had left the Academy to reach Skaro with an Omega device in an attempt to destroy the Daleks, the Doctor tried to contact Benny on Arviem 2, a planet ruled by a scientific dictatorship. As soon as he arrived, however, he was drugged by Renk Van Magnastein, a nightclub's owner, to whom Benny confided having made up a fake account of the planet's history, to save an ancient civilisation from being wiped out. Seeing the potential for business if Benny's lies were true, Renk drugged the Doctor and had him change Arviem 2's history to suit Benny's account; he then brought him back to the present, drunk and with no knowledge of what he did. The Doctor and Benny had to work together to try and discover what happened, all while being chased by agents of Arviem 2's government as dangerous individuals. When they eventually did discover the truth, Benny struck Renk out cold, and the Doctor brought him in the TARDIS to have "a nice little chat" with him, before telling Benny why he contacted her. (AUDIO: The Revolution [+]Loading...["The Revolution (audio story)"])

The Doctor followed Benny from afar as she searched for Ace. He witnessed her exploration of the remains of a Dalek time ship on the Moon of Adolin, where the ship's conscience took the form of Claire Summerfield, her mother, and delivered her a message from Ace, trying to dissuade everyone from going after her. (AUDIO: Good Night, Sweet Ladies [+]Loading...["Good Night, Sweet Ladies (audio story)"])

As Benny arrived on Skaro, the Doctor tried to reach her, but due to Ace's incorrect use of the Omega device, the planet was encased in a time-lock, and he was unable to do so. When Benny, despite Ace's warnings, lowered the time-barrier, (AUDIO: Random Ghosts [+]Loading...["Random Ghosts (audio story)"]) he was able to appear as a "ghost" for some time; in that form, he confessed Benny to be the cause of the Daleks' invasion of all the universe. The Doctor was finally able to land on Skaro and reunited with Benny, who told him the bits and pieces of Daleks' history she saw happening in the Dalek city, due to time being out of balance. She said she thought that the original Daleks hated themselves for their form, remembered what it was like to be the Kaleds, and wished one day to come out of their shells. The Doctor also told Benny that he sent her to look for Ace because he didn't dare to go to Skaro, and he was also curious to see if Ace succeeded in destroying the Daleks. When the last Dalek alive in the city captured Ace and went on to revive the Daleks on Skaro, the Doctor told Benny to give it the Omega device, and to remember what she saw. Benny understood and activated the device, allowing the Dalek to meet its future form, the Dalek Emperor. The Dalek was horrified by its future and shot him, prompting the Emperor to shoot in reverse; this caused a paradox which set time in the right order. The Doctor, Benny and Ace then departed together, effectively reuniting the "old gang", as Benny called them. (AUDIO: The Lights of Skaro [+]Loading...["The Lights of Skaro (audio story)"])

The return of Sutekh[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Doctor and Ace travelled to Egypt in 1941 to retrieve the Eye of Horus, which would have imprisoned the ancient god Sutekh. However, when in the pyramid of Sutekh, the Doctor touched the Eye, and the power of the stone trapped him inside a sarcophagus in the vaults of the Osiris Bank, where a cult of Sutekh's followers also kept prisoner the goddess Isis. When Ace and Benny delivered Isis with the power of the Eye, the Doctor was released too; but when Benny tried to reach to him, the Eye brought them both away to Ancient Egypt.

The Doctor became chief architect for Pharaoh Hatshepsut and spent seven years building for her a string of obelisks, which were meant to channel the Osiran energy to assure an eternity of peace and prosperity to the world through the Eye of Horus. He also showed Hatshepsut the fabulous Land of Punt, an Osiran colony, and helped her rule her country in peace and without conflict; in fact, he may have fallen in love with her, to the point of accepting her proposal of marriage. When Benny showed up, bringing the Eye of Horus with her, the Doctor tried to get it from her, but since he did not remember her (due to being transported through time), Benny refused to trust him. This gave Sutekh time to convince Thutmose, Hatshepsut's son and successor, that his mother was plotting against him, and have him lead a conspiracy against her. Hatshepsut, Benny and the Doctor were buried alive, in two distinct tombs, and Thutmose placed the Eye of Sutekh in the obelisk, thus allowing Sutekh to use the energy of the obelisks to spread his "gift" of death through all history. Ace's arrival in the TARDIS permitted the Doctor and Benny to escape death; the Doctor (who recovered his memory) even managed to release Hatshepsut from her grave and bring her once again to Punt, before leaving in an attempt to stop Sutekh. (AUDIO: The Eye of Horus [+]Loading...["The Eye of Horus (audio story)"])

The Doctor tricked Sutekh by luring him to the 29th century, a time when life on Earth had already finished, to make him think he had won. To do that, he used Russell and Susannah Courtland's cult of Sutekh as a focal point, transporting them through time from the 20th century, during one of their ceremonies in honour of the god. In the 29th century, the Doctor kept acting as if there were no point fighting Sutekh, exasperating Ace and Benny; he didn't intervene when Sutekh killed Russell, Susannah and their cultists, but he instead encouraged Isis to act against Sutekh. Isis went against Sutekh and let him kill her, but that was only an act of reincarnation; she actually reincarnated into Alyx, a young girl the Courtlands adopted to sacrifice her to Sutekh. The Doctor recognised the reincarnation and only then revealed to Sutekh that he had been tricked. In response, Sutekh created a time storm that would allow him to come back in time and ensure this future of devastation would happen; in doing so, he also possessed the Doctor's body, bringing him along with him, since his body was decaying. (AUDIO: The Tears of Isis [+]Loading...["The Tears of Isis (audio story)"])

Sutekh in the Doctor's body used the time storm to travel to its pyramid on Mars, when Benny (in an earlier time from her perspective) found him and released him from the sarcophagus he was in. The Doctor and Sutekh fought for the control of the body and mind of the Time Lord, with Sutekh winning in the end; he then proceeded to the flesh looms in the tomb, to create himself a new body. Benny tried to stop him, but she failed, and Sutekh was regenerated into a new body. He left, thus giving the Doctor back his freedom, but leaving him fatally injured, in a way that stopped regeneration. The Doctor used his last strength to save the life of Benny, who injected herself with Osiran DNA, before crumbling to dust in front of her. (AUDIO: The Pyramid of Sutekh [+]Loading...["The Pyramid of Sutekh (audio story)"])

What Sutekh did not realise, was that doing so he was unwillingly trapping himself into a time loop; as for the Doctor, Isis took him out of the storm and the loop, thus saving his life and partially denying the events in the loop.

The Doctor made a deal with Death for the Master to have ten years of peace and sanity, at the end of which the Doctor had to kill him. To this end, Death transformed the Master into "John Smith", an ordinary physician on the colony world of Perfugium with no memory of his past. (AUDIO: Master [+]Loading...["Master (audio story)"])

The Doctor decided to take a long overdue vacation to the planet of Ormelia, and materialised the TARDIS aboard a spaceship orbiting the planet, where he befriended a genetically reconstructed creature named Vilgreth, but discovered that his ship travelled through space by devouring planets, and was forced to stop him.

Arriving in the remains of the Drashani Empire, the Doctor met a mercenary called Vienna Salvatori, who had been hired to capture him for a bounty payment. He soon encountered an old enemy, Kylo Sorsha. Sorsha plotted to take revenge against the Doctor because of his actions in the downfall of the Empire due to the reprogramming the Doctor made of the Wrath in his previous incarnation. Sorsha wanted the Doctor to make the wrath loyal to him again, but he did not allow this to happen. (AUDIO: The Shadow Heart [+]Loading...["The Shadow Heart (audio story)"])

The Doctor manoeuvred the Chelbil to 2017 Earth so that Goilin B could frighten them away and use his newfound fame to have the alien residents of Cheldon Bonniface allowed to remain.

As he was juggling in the TARDIS's control room, the Doctor received an invitation to the Psychic Circus from of a junkmail robot. Suspicious, the Doctor followed the path the robot indicated to him, but instead landed on Zamyatin, where he was arrested for juggling. As he unwillingly contributed to causing a psychic storm, the Doctor discovered he had been in an illusion when he found himself back in the TARDIS. In another illusion, he found himself back at Paradise Towers, where he met the Master, and learned that he allied himself with the Gods of Ragnarok and created the Circus as a source of psychic power for them and himself. The Master then left the Doctor to entertain the Gods, which the Doctor did for a while before recalling the TARDIS and fleeing. He then went back to Segonax and to the Circus, where he and the Master confronted each other on a psychic plane. The Doctor told the Master that the Gods were only using him, and exploited the Gods' curiosity to buy time to steal the pendant from the Master and pass it to Kingpin. Kingpin then used the pendant to free the Circus from the Master and the Gods' influence. The Doctor then left, leaving the Master at the mercy of the Gods.

Two Earths, two Doctors and River Song[[edit] | [edit source]]

The TARDIS crashed into the Saturnius, a Earth ship devised to travel through temporal anomalies, en route towards a planet appeared out of nowhere (actually a version of Earth from an alternate future). As a result of the crash, the Doctor found himself imprisoned as a stowaway by the crew of the Saturnius; amongs them there was River Song, whose memory was affected by the resulting paradox and failed to recognise him. Based on her confidences, the Doctor worked out what was happening and together with River they tried to reach the TARDIS to operate the controls and detach the ships; however, the Doctor was killed by the temporal duplicates of another member of the crew, and was actually River to operate the controls. When the ships detached, the paradox was reversed and the Doctor found himself on the TARDIS: he didn't know what happened, but retained enough consciousness to change the TARDIS's course and avod impact with the other ship.

Discovering that two alternate Earths were fighting for existence, the Doctor traced the origin of the disturbance to Golden Futures, where he discovered the Speravores were behind it all. River Song snuck into his TARDIS and convinced him she wanted to help, so together trey travelled to London, 1703, before the Great Storm, where they tracked down a nest of Speravores, whose Queen was feeding on the wasted chances of Sarah Dean's life. Not trusting her, the Doctor cuffed River and left her to be arrested for breaking and entering, and the next night, during the Great Storm, he tried to stop Isaac George from saving Sarah, having worked out their meeting had been manipulated by the Speravores. This led him to meet his previous self, remember he tried to help Isaac and Sarah in his previous life, and River's role in it. The two Doctor and River were captured by the Speravores, but thanks to the Sixth Doctor's sacrifice, the Seventh and River reached Golden Futures, where the Doctor prepared to manipulate the timelines to erase Isaac and Sarah from existence, although this troubled him. River then went to the couple and let them decide to willingly sacrifice themselves, thus allowing the Doctor peace of mind to cancel them and solve the situation. He then resisted River's attempts at making him forget, in the end forcing her to knock him unconscious and wipe his mind - but he still kept enough memories to go and talk with Captain Maddie Bower and Rachel Burrows.

Adventures with Mags[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Doctor tracked Mags down to the planet Gokroth, where they helped the human and monster inhabitants learn to live together and chased away creature hunter Varron. When Doctor Maleeva was unable to help Mags, the Doctor offered to help her instead and invited her to travel with him. (AUDIO: The Monsters of Gokroth [+]Loading...["The Monsters of Gokroth (audio story)"])

Klein's revenge[[edit] | [edit source]]

Arriving in British Kenya during the Mau Mau Uprising of 1953, the Doctor encountered his old adversary Elizabeth Klein, who was investigating a mysterious virus she recalled from her timeline. Despite their animosity, they worked together to solve the mystery of the alien virus and prevented a Cheylis plot to use Earth as a testing ground for biological warfare. Knowing Klein would continue to pose a threat to history so long as she remained at large, the Doctor insisted that she accompany him on his travels so that he could keep a closer eye on her, which she agreed to do. (AUDIO: A Thousand Tiny Wings [+]Loading...["A Thousand Tiny Wings (audio story)"])

Upon taking her to the TARDIS, the Doctor requested Klein recount what caused her to use the TARDIS that resulted in the destruction of her timeline, and discovered that his alternate timeline counterpart had orchestrated his regeneration into his eighth incarnation to manipulate Klein into using the TARDIS and restoring the timeline. (AUDIO: Klein's Story [+]Loading...["Klein's Story (audio story)"])

After travelling together for a while, the Doctor and Klein arrived on a planet inhabited by the insectoid Vrill.

After Klein used the TARDIS to rewrite history so that the Nazis won the war, she helped the Galactic Reich conquer potential threats by travelling into the past to warn them in advance. After time was rewritten, the Doctor's mind was placed in the alternate timeline's Doctor whilst he was imprisoned in the Moonbase and had to work out what his counterpart's plan was. He was released when the Selachian's attacked, something his alternate counterpart had arranged, and used it as his advantage, especially when he noticed the use of Time Lord technology as part of the attack. During the attack, Klein was imprisoned and the Doctor interrogated her. She was foiled by the alternate timeline's Doctor and erased from history by the Time Lords. With history restored, the Doctor paid a visit to UNIT, where he encountered a different version of Klein working there.

Resolving old business[[edit] | [edit source]]

Sensing his end approaching, the Doctor became afraid that his next incarnation wouldn't be willing to do what needed to be done, and began to put all his affairs in order while he still could, to leave nothing unsung when his time came. To this end, he began to monitor interstellar communications across thousands of worlds, from the wireless communications of a multitude of law enforcement organisations to the private correspondence of governments and the criminal underworlds. (AUDIO: Persuasion [+]Loading...["Persuasion (audio story)"])

Revisiting the planet Spiridon to ensure that Kalendorf fulfilled his destiny, the Doctor soon realised that he would have to get involved in order to keep the situation under control. He made a deal with the Daleks to help them achieve their goal of invisibility without suffering from the light wave sickness, in exchange for Kalendorf's safety. After many years, he completed the formula, but betrayed the Daleks at the last moment, exposing them and himself to the sickness, though he, refusing to regenerate, managed to escape back to his TARDIS, where he was healed.

After completing a reconfiguration of its console room, the TARDIS brought the Doctor once more to Artaris where he encountered Lord Sutton, the latest incarnation of the Warlord Grayvorn. Grayvorn had been reduced to a spirit after their last encounter and had managed to possess a new host before sculpting Excelis once more into a war-driven dictatorship, using the souls of the rebels of Excelis to power his army of "meat puppets". The Doctor used the Relic to free the souls, but Grayvorn activated a self-destruct which would destroy Artaris. The Doctor tried to help, but was forced to escape alone, leaving the people of Artaris to die in the explosion. (AUDIO: Excelis Decays [+]Loading...["Excelis Decays (audio story)"])

Saddened and alone, the Doctor travelled to the Forge in the hope of shutting it down once and for all. There, he found what appeared to be his sixth incarnation assisting Nimrod, and reluctantly helped the organisation fend off a telepathic alien incursion. The Sixth Doctor's arm was lost in the battle, confirming the Doctor's belief that he was a fake. The fake Doctor explained that Nimrod used DNA samples from the real Sixth Doctor to create clones, in an attempt to learn the secrets of regeneration, though, like his two "brothers" before him, the clone was rapidly deteriorating. The Doctor revealed to the clone that he had glimpsed suppressed memories during their telepathic contact, prompting him to discover a wing of the base full of decrepit and dying clones. Struggling to cope, the clone initiated the Forge facility's self-destruct, allowing the Doctor only five minutes to escape, and killing everyone who remained inside the base.

Travelling to the planet Pelachan, the Doctor discovered the Hand of All, an artefact that contained a living story. Taking it, the Doctor went to combat a regenerated version of Nobody No-One, trapping him in the Hand inside his mind. He then travelled to the Forge and locked himself inside a Time Lord sarcophagus, waiting until he was found by Ace and his younger self. As he lost control of the Hand, he warned them that Nobody No-One would return before falling comatose. Upon reawakening, he discovered his younger self had died defeating the Word Lord, and took it upon himself to bring Hex to Evelyn Smythe on Pelachan and leave Ace with a TG tablet and a lime before he faded out of existence, having set up the circumstances to enable his resurrection.

Burning back into existence on the planet Perfugium, the Doctor discovered that his deal with Death to give the Master a normal life was coming to its conclusion, and it was time for him to honour his side of the bargain. The Doctor tracked down the Master, who was living as a disfigured amnesiac named "John Smith" in a manor house, and joined him and his friends, Jacqueline and Victor Schaeffer, in their evening's entertainment. However, the Doctor could not bring himself kill "Smith" as he was enjoying his life, only for "Smith's" housekeeper to reveal herself as Death, who the Doctor made another deal with after witnessing Victor killing Jacqueline: if "John Smith" could make the right decision, then he would be free of the Master. However, "Smith" struggled when Death presented her choice: his life, as her servant, or the life of Jacqueline, with whom he was in love with.

In the end, Death took the Master and, as punishment for not holding up his end of their bargain, sent the Doctor away take the place of an assassin and murder an innocent in cold blood. The Doctor travelled to the destination and encountered a sniper about to take his shot, interrupted him and recounted his story. The Doctor still refused to kill his target, but discovered that the sniper was in fact Death, who had known he wouldn't be able to, and departed while proclaiming to know his inevitable fate. As she left, the Doctor swore he would save his old friend one day. (AUDIO: Master [+]Loading...["Master (audio story)"])

Seeking to "get one over on Death", the Doctor saved a tramp from allowing himself to be run over by a bus in order to save the life of Rita, the bus driver, who would otherwise have committed suicide. Following this, the pair shared several adventures, including an encounter with Mozart and Mortimus, before the Doctor was forced to admit to the tramp that his mission hadn't been to save him. Honouring his wish for death, the Doctor removed him from time, placing him aboard the airship present within the time vortex.

Visiting Ancient Mars, the Doctor managed to stop an attempt to take over the Martian government made by Arakssor with the support of a band of warmongering Ice Warriors, and, with the help of Geldar, ensured that Arakssor and his band of war criminals were sentenced to life imprisonment in Antarctica. However, Arakssor staged an escape that resulted in the Doctor, and everyone within the facility, becoming trapped in suspended animation beneath the Antarctic ice. With his memories gone, the Doctor was unearthed with the Ice Warriors by a human expedition in 2012. Arakssor quickly resumed his gambit, planning to power the prison's sonic cannon to eradicate the Earth's greenhouse gases, thus making the planet into a fortress that Martian life could thrive in, wiping out the human race in the process.

As his memories began to return, the Doctor commandeered a helicopter with the expedition's physicist, Genevieve Marceau, and crash-landed near the dig site after the helicopter was hit by Ssrongar's sonic cannon. The Doctor reactivated Geldar's distress signal and boosted it to contact a Martian warship from the other side of the galaxy, which bombarded the prison from orbit, destroying Arakssor and the rest of the Ice Warriors. The Doctor and Genevieve fled to the safety of the TARDIS, and returned to the Fortitude to drop Genevieve off. (AUDIO: Frozen Time [+]Loading...["Frozen Time (audio story)"])

The Doctor arrived on a space station that was orbiting the quarantined planet Antikon, which had fallen victim to a virulent disease that had killed millions of people.

He realised that there was a time loop around the palace he was in and it had something to do with the Blood Flower, and that it was a prison for one of the princesses.

Tracking a strange signal, the Doctor arrived on the planet Tasak and encountered an android named Temeter, who was tracking the same signal, and the pair formed an alliance. Travelling across Argent City via the monorail transport system to the Grand Citadel of the House of Argentia, the pair discovered a plot by the members of the House of Sarkota and found Sara, who Temetre had been trying to rescue. However, before they could leave, the trio were arrested as spies and brought to the banquet hall, where a Cyberman statue was unveiled, and the Doctor's warnings about the dangers of Cyber-technology were ignored. As Argentia was taken over by the leaders of Sarkota in a coup, the Doctor and his allies discovered that the core of the planet's technology repository, the Silver, was a Cyberman device, and that a hibernating squadron of Cybermen were still present on the planet. Upon awakening, the Cybermen began to convert the planet's inhabitants, but the Doctor managed to lead them into a trap before destroying the entire repository.

In search of fluid links for his TARDIS, the Doctor travelled to the Easto Cluster and landed at a Reclaim Station, where he and the mechanic, Two'Mark, were approached by a small robot who recognised the Doctor. Back in his TARDIS, the Doctor activated a holo-glyph control and started to play back a recording made by Sara; the recording detailed her prosecution following a failed mission and her penalty was to have her consciousness transferred to a worker robot with her emotional capabilities stripped away.

The Doctor and Raine meet an apparent future incarnation of the Doctor. (AUDIO: Dominion [+]Loading...["Dominion (audio story)"])

While the Doctor was travelling with Raine Creevy, the TARDIS was pulled into another dimension by a distress signal, and landed on a barren planet, just as another TARDIS arrived with an apparent future incarnation of the Doctor, who claimed to be working with UNIT on Earth and, warning the Doctor of a mistake he was about to make, urged him not to help the Tolians before departing. However, the Doctor ignored the warning and planned to return the power leeched from the planet by a dimensional node back to the Tolians, and was able to restore the planet to fertility, but the Tolians, wanting the full flow of dimensional energies, captured Raine and threatened to kill her if the Doctor didn't increase the output. Despite knowing that the act would result in chaos across all dimensions, the Doctor resignedly did as the Tolians demanded and opened up a dimensional rift, but quickly rescued Raine and jumped into the rift, explaining that creatures from other dimensions would now be able to freely hop around. Entering into the new dimension, the Doctor and Raine found themselves on a volcanic world inhabited by lava-spewing spiders and, after noticing another dimensional door which the arachnids were using to cross over to Earth, the pair were rescued by the "Other Doctor" with a Skyhead. The Doctor learned that Elizabeth Klein had confiscated the "Other Doctor's" TARDIS to force him to help UNIT fend off the dimensional escapees, and pleaded to use a dimensional node in Klein's possession to close up the breach, but was refused.

While the "Other Doctor" and Raine travelled to Japan to ward off a gestalt cephalopodic species called the Nexus, the Doctor and Klein visited a UNIT post in Nevada in an attempt to deal with the flying metallic cubes. Using their weakness to heat, the Doctor and Klein had the Skyheads start a firestorm to drive the cubes back to their dimension, but the cubes joined together in a final attempt to blow the dimensional doorway, prompting Klein to call the "Other Doctor" for help. However, the "Other Doctor" demanded the release of his TARDIS before he helped them, only to fly off on a Skyhead and flee with his TARDIS and the dimensional node when Klein gave in, but the Doctor managed to hurry after him and enter his TARDIS, and discovered that the "Other Doctor" was really the Master in a new incarnation.

Having infiltrated a Time Lord base on Tersurus to gain the only two dimensional nodes in existence, the Master had planted the first on the Tolians's planet and the second on Earth. After supplying the Tolians with a communicator to contact the Doctor, he arrived on Earth and proceeded to infiltrate UNIT under the guise of the Doctor. Now ready to commence his endgame, the Master hooked the Doctor up to the node activator, intending to use his mind to gain total control over the flow of energy throughout the dimensions. However, the Doctor managed to convince the Tolians to betray the Master by informing their leader, Arunzell, of the fact that the Master had planted the dimensional node on their planet in the first place, and deactivated the activator, restoring the dimensions. Abandoning the Master to the Tolians, the Doctor returned to Earth and used the final node to return the Tolians to their home dimension. Leaving Klein a space-time telegraph with which she could contact him should she need his help again, the Doctor departed with Raine. (AUDIO: Dominion [+]Loading...["Dominion (audio story)"])

Search for the Persuasion machine[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Doctor detected that Kurt Schalk in 1945 had become the most wanted man in the universe, and set out to discover why. (AUDIO: Persuasion [+]Loading...["Persuasion (audio story)"]) Knowing that Elizabeth Klein was somehow connected to Schalk, (AUDIO: Daleks Among Us [+]Loading...["Daleks Among Us (audio story)"]) he travelled to the 1990s to take her with him on his search for answers. He managed to make Klein follow him from a pub into his TARDIS, unintentionally with junior science officer Will Arrowsmith in tow. Travelling to 1945 Düsseldorf, they met Lukas Hinterberger, a Nazi who claimed to be one of Schalk's colleague, who apparently recognised Klein and immediately opened up to her, raising suspicion from Klein and the Doctor.

Hinterberger told them about beings called the Struwwelpeter, and eventually agreed to take them to Schalk. Arriving on the Greek island of Minos, they came face to face with the Struwwelpeter, godlike beings from another universe whose true names were the Shepherd and Shepherdess. Considering this universe to be evil and decadent, they gave Schalk the knowledge to build a device known as the Persuasion machine so that they could manipulate all beings in the universe to submit to their will. The Doctor trapped them on New Peerlessness, a prison planet near Kasterborous, but was unable to prevent the Klecht entity from taking Schalk, forcing the TARDIS crew to search for him. (AUDIO: Persuasion [+]Loading...["Persuasion (audio story)"])

The Doctor found a weapons auction intergalactic commercial being presented by Garundel, and realised Garundel was auctioning Schalk alongside a prototype of the persuasion machine. Fearing his presence would raise suspicion, the Doctor sent Klein and Will to reclaim Schalk and steal the device before it was sold, while he waited in the TARDIS for them to enable him to land inside the compound.

After Will gave the safety signal, the TARDIS was intercepted by Ziv, Garundel's assistant, who had taken Will hostage and locked him out of the space ship, as the auction was invaded by the Sontarans. Forced to accompany Garundel to find Will and Ziv, the Doctor learned that Schalk seemingly didn't have knowledge of the machine, and aided Garundel in making his pod fast enough to catch up to Will and Ziv. Catching up with their assistants, the Doctor and Garundel were fired upon by the Sontarans, who had taken Klein hostage, but they managed to escape the ship via a teleport, reuniting with both Will and Ziv.

While negotiating Klein's release, the Doctor discovered that the man they were selling was not Schalk, but a different man he had met in Minos, and that he was dead. Using the prototype of the machine to persuade Garundel and Ziv to rescue Klein, the Doctor explained to Will that the body they had found was actually that of Hinterberger; Schalk had used the machine to convince Hinterberger he was Schalk and then used it on himself to convince himself that he was Hinterberger. The Doctor boarded the Sontaran ship and, after reuniting with Klein and Will, reluctantly allowed Marshall Stenn to have his revenge on Garundel, taking his dismembered hand to free the TARDIS from his lockdown. (AUDIO: Starlight Robbery [+]Loading...["Starlight Robbery (audio story)"])

Returning to 1945 Minos, the Doctor, Klein and Will discovered that the Daleks were also searching for the Persuasion machine. Travelling to Lemuria, the Doctor was told that Schalk was on the planet Azimuth, where the trio discovered that it had become illegal to mention the Daleks by name, which got Will arrested when the Doctor mentioned them. After getting an audience with a Dalek clone of Schalk, the Doctor and Klein concluded that the Daleks were still hidden on Azimuth. The Doctor revealed to Klein that there was a blood connection between her and Schalk, prompting her to ask him to take her to 1945 to discover the truth, just as Will returned and told them about a man called "Father" that wanted a meeting with the Doctor.

Going to the meeting alone, the Doctor discovered that Father was actually Davros, and the two were taken to the Daleks and Schalk, enabling the Doctor to deduce that Klein had travelled in the TARDIS to three weeks before they first arrived in Düsseldorf, discovered that Schalk was her biological father, and that she was engineered to operate the Persuasion machine. At that moment, Klein returned in the TARDIS and, having seemingly reverted to her original counterpart, claimed to be willing to become the tool for the Persuasion machine. A man called Falkus then entered the room and, revealing himself as Davros's "son", ordered the Daleks to exterminate Schalk, but Klein forced the Daleks and Falkus to die with the power of the machine. Will returned with the Shepherd, who threatened to kill them all, but Klein used the power of the machine to kill the Shepherd, dying in the process.

After ensuring that Davros' escape pod would land on Lemuria, the Doctor and Will noticed that the Klein who had just died was actually her mother, prompting them to search for Klein on 1945 Earth. Tracking her to Russia, the Doctor apologised to Klein for judging her by her Nazi counterpart, just as Will alerted them to the fact that they were surrounded by the Red Army.

Tracking strange gaps in reality, the Doctor was shocked to meet an apparent past version of the Master, who saved him from the Rocket Men in return for the Doctor's aid in fighting another version of himself. Accompanied by new temporary companion Jemima, the Doctor took the Master to confront his future self, but soon determined that the two Masters were actually in each other's bodies. After the Masters were persuaded to return to their own bodies, they killed Jemima and abandoned the Doctor by stealing his own TARDIS as the universe continued to collapse, but the Doctor was able to acquire the Master's abandoned TARDIS and track them to the Anomaly cage, created by the Cult of the Heretic, who had created this crisis to try and unmake existence. Using weapons stolen from the Masters, the Doctor was able to use the Cult's equipment to restore the universe, return the Masters to their points of origin, and save Jemima from the Rocket Men.

The Doctor was contacted by Benny, and told that the Sirens of Time had hijacked the first Gallifreyan experiment of time travel, turning it into a time paradox that was splitting the universe apart. While the experiment had already been stopped, the Time Lords were in danger of not discovering time travel. Along with his third, fourth, fifth, sixth and eighth incarnations, the Seventh Doctor was brought to the planet Henlen to serve as one of the six pilots needed to handle the TARDIS prototype, while his first, second and tenth incarnations stayed behind to deal with the possible backlash. The experiment was successful, restoring the correct timeline, and the Seventh Doctor was taken back to his own time by Benny.

Along with seven other incarnations, the Seventh Doctor became trapped in the Void when it began to attack and devour the universe. He and the others were able to form a dimensional bridge to allow the Eighth Doctor to escape, and were then joined by the War Doctor, followed shortly by the ninth, tenth and twelfth incarnations, who ventured into the Type 1 TARDIS responsible for the disturbance. Forming a plan with the trapped Eleventh Doctor, the Doctors joined their TARDISes to pacify the Type 1 into a peaceful state and return the universe to normal.

In space, the Doctor encountered a group of Silents serving the Church of the Papal Mainframe and made a deal to help them track down a renegade Silent priest on Sunset in return for repairs to the TARDIS, though the Silents did not tell him the renegade would be sentenced to death. Following post-hypnotic instructions as he was unable to recall the deal, the Doctor went to Sunset and eventually found the renegade priest in Kavita Ardhana's casino. The Silents followed him and sentenced the renegade to death, to the Doctor's horror. The renegade recognised he had been misled and forgave the Doctor before being executed. Deciding to ease his conscience, the Silents compelled him to forget what he had witnessed on Sunset and he returned to the TARDIS.

With the aid of Ace, Ollistra and Rasmus, the Doctor managed to capture the insane Time Lord known as the Eleven after he conquered the universe with the aid of the Dark Citizens, tricking the Eleven into trapping himself in a virtual environment long enough for the Doctor to convince the Dark Citizens to abandon the Eleven. (AUDIO: Dark Universe [+]Loading...["Dark Universe (audio story)"]) The Eleven was delivered to Padrac on Gallifrey, and the Doctor watched the Eleven going into cold storage before Padrac informed him that the President had one last task for him.

(TV: Doctor Who [+]Loading...["Doctor Who (TV story)"]) Knowing his chances of surviving the mission were slim, (PROSE: Lungbarrow [+]Loading...["Lungbarrow (novel)"]) the Doctor agreed to stow away his ashes safely (TV: Doctor Who [+]Loading...["Doctor Who (TV story)"]) and used a faulty Chameleon Arch to turn himself half-human in order to trick the Master in the event of his escape. (COMIC: The Forgotten [+]Loading...["The Forgotten (comic story)"])

The Doctor travelled to Skaro, at a point in time before the Hand of Omega apparently destroyed it, (PROSE: War of the Daleks [+]Loading...["War of the Daleks (novel)"]) and somehow claimed the Master's ashes from the Daleks. However, en route to Gallifrey, (TV: Doctor Who [+]Loading...["Doctor Who (TV story)"]) while the Doctor was lost in his thoughts, (PROSE: This is My Life [+]Loading...["This is My Life (short story)"]) the Master escaped from his casket in the form of a Deathworm Morphant and damaged the inner workings of the TARDIS console, forcing the TARDIS to make an emergency landing in San Francisco on 30 December 1999. (TV: Doctor Who [+]Loading...["Doctor Who (TV story)"]) Needing to find his bearings to figure out how to expurgate the Master from his ship and to find an atomic clock to repair the time mechanism, the Doctor left the TARDIS without properly checking his surroundings, (PROSE: The Novel of the Film [+]Loading...["The Novel of the Film (novelisation)"]) and was caught in the middle of a gang shootout, getting himself shot once through the shoulder and twice in the leg. Before falling unconscious, the Doctor saw the Master exiting the TARDIS in liquid form, and tried to warn a survivor of the shootout who came to his aid, Chang Lee, to stop him, but Lee could make no sense of the Doctor's warning.

Death[[edit] | [edit source]]

Main article: Seventh Doctor's regeneration
The Doctor dies, screaming in agony. (TV: Doctor Who [+]Loading...["Doctor Who (TV story)"])

Lee hailed an ambulance, and the Doctor was taken to Walker General Hospital, where the bullets were found to have caused only minor injuries and removed. However, the medical team assumed that he was fibrillating and that the X-rays showing his two hearts were a double exposure, and Cardiologist Doctor Grace Holloway was called to undertake exploratory surgery to "fix" his abnormal heartbeat. The Doctor woke up just as Holloway began the surgery, and tried to stop her operating on him by explaining his non-terrestrial origins, but Holloway and the surgeons believed him to be acting irrational due to the pain and quickly put him under anaesthetic. Shaking off the effects to give one last warning about the Master, the Doctor was rendered unconsciousness. Holloway quickly became lost in the Doctor's cardiovascular system, and he began to flatline when she damaged his circulatory system with her probe. Though the team attempted to revive him, their attempts only allowed to Doctor to awaken briefly, and he was pronounced dead after he let out a final scream.

Unlike his previous deaths, this regeneration did not begin promptly; his successor attributed his delayed regeneration to having been under anaesthesia at the time. The hospital staff locked the Doctor's dead body inside a cold chamber, with a "John Doe" toe tag attached and a sheet placed over his body. Several hours later, within the hospital morgue, the Doctor's corpse contorted and crackled with electrical energies as the anaesthesia finally wears of and the regeneration process began, the face of the Seventh Doctor cracking and shifting into the facial structure of a younger man, giving the Doctor new life in the form of his eighth incarnation. (TV: Doctor Who [+]Loading...["Doctor Who (TV story)"])

Growing old[[edit] | [edit source]]

In some time streams, the Seventh Doctor did not regenerate and instead grew old. (TV: The Curse of Fenric [+]Loading...["The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)"]) An old Seventh Doctor visited his former companion Melanie Bush at her intergalactic business company's headquarters, disguising himself as an investor and then revealing himself to her by playing the spoons.

(TV: The Curse of Fenric [+]Loading...["The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)"])

Post-mortem[[edit] | [edit source]]

When the Eighth Doctor was exploring his own mind, he saw the Seventh Doctor sleeping in a garden of roses, holding his umbrella "like a child [would] a stuffed animal". When the Eighth Doctor tried to dive deeper into his memories, the Seventh Doctor awoke to stop him, and forced him to leave his mind. (PROSE: The City of the Dead [+]Loading...["The City of the Dead (novel)"])

While meditating, unable to access the blocked-off part of his mind, the Eighth Doctor saw the Seventh Doctor, who asked him how Ace's memory of her trip to Paradise Towers could be relevant. He also told the Doctor that there were 153,841 blossoms in the garden, and that the trick to counting them is to subtract five from the end, a clue to the Time Lord minds within the Doctor's head. (PROSE: The Gallifrey Chronicles [+]Loading...["The Gallifrey Chronicles (novel)"])

When the Eighth Doctor was possessed by Zagreus and stabbed by Charley Pollard, he met the mental manifestations of his fifth, sixth and seventh incarnations in his mind when he nearly allowed himself to die, subsequently rallying himself with their aid to restore himself and retake control of the anti-time energies. (AUDIO: Zagreus [+]Loading...["Zagreus (audio story)"])

During the Last Great Time War, the Doctor was affected by a degeneration weapon.

(AUDIO: Past Lives [+]Loading...["Past Lives (audio story)"]) Later, as the Fifth Doctor destabilised whilst the TARDIS was caught in a forcefield whilst leaving the end of the universe, the Seventh Doctor emerged again, saying it was his time to take charge. (AUDIO: The Artist at the End of Time [+]Loading...["The Artist at the End of Time (audio story)"]) He was brought to Space Station Zenobia and recruited by the General to answer a request by Davros to be rescued from Falkus in return for aiding the Time Lords in the war. Though suspicious of Davros' motives, the Doctor agreed and was accompanied to Falkus by Commander Veklin, where they retrieved Davros from a guard of Kaled clones. Upon returning to Zenobia they were followed by Daleks who captured them along with Davros and took them back to Falkus. There Davros revealed his control of the Kaled clones and attempted to merge the Doctor's DNA with a Dalek mutant as an experiment, only for his unstable genetics to cause it to explode. The Doctor escaped in the confusion and repeated the act with the giant mutant at the heart of Falkus, destroying the moon entirely. He was rescued by the General in his TARDIS and returned him and Veklin to Time Lord forces, after which they returned him to his timestream where he destabilised again.

When Sondrah tried to turn this against the Doctor by pointing out the destruction of Skaro, the Seventh Doctor denied responsibility, citing that the Daleks had destroyed it with their "greed and arrogance", and that he had only provided them with means. When the Eleventh Doctor began to deduce Sondrah's true identity, the past Doctors faded away as Oscar Wilde interfered with the Nexus.

Other realities[[edit] | [edit source]]

Negated timelines[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Seventh Doctor and Ace arrive in the Master's trap. (AUDIO: The Light at the End [+]Loading...["The Light at the End (audio story)"])

When the Cybermen allied with Rassilon to take over history, (COMIC: Supremacy of the Cybermen [+]Loading...["Supremacy of the Cybermen (comic story)"]) the Seventh Doctor was planting Nemesis mines across the Cyber-Fleet when he discovered that Ace had been cyber-converted. (COMIC: Prologue: The Seventh Doctor [+]Loading...["Prologue: The Seventh Doctor (comic story)"]) He was then attacked by Ace. This timeline was eventually unwritten by Rassilon and the Twelfth Doctor. (COMIC: Supremacy of the Cybermen [+]Loading...["Supremacy of the Cybermen (comic story)"])

In a negated timeline, the Doctor and Ace were drawn to land in a pocket universe built on 23 November 1963, where they began to see images of the past and future of the TARDIS, and encountered the Sixth Doctor and Peri Brown, who had also been brought there. Investigating further, the Seventh Doctor discovered that the Decayed Master was also present, and found out that the Master's plot was to erase his timeline by planting a conceptual bomb inside Bob Dovie so that Dovie's inability to accept the Fifth Doctor's TARDIS would cause the TARDIS to explode across its own timeline. After Ace vanished due to the timelines changing, the Seventh Doctor attempted to contact the Time Lords, but was unable to when his TARDIS began to explode. However, the Sixth Doctor was able to bring the Seventh Doctor and his other incarnations together using a dimensional stabiliser, and the Fifth Doctor stopped the bomb from going off by showing Dovie the inside of the TARDIS in 1962, ensuring that he would not consider it impossible when he entered it in 1963. The Seventh Doctor then joined his other seven incarnations in preparing to time ram the Master's TARDIS. However, rather than kill the Master, the First Doctor instead turned off the automatic distress actions, which had brought all of the Doctors to the pocket dimension and triggered the TARDIS's destruction, making it so none of that had happened. (AUDIO: The Light at the End [+]Loading...["The Light at the End (audio story)"])

Alternate timelines[[edit] | [edit source]]

In an alternative timeline, the Doctor was able to save Jan Rydd and his fellow Travellers on Heaven in 2570, and, in another alternative timeline, was beheaded by an Ice Warrior on Peladon in 3985. (PROSE: So Vile a Sin [+]Loading...["So Vile a Sin (novel)"])

In one alternative timeline, the Doctor and Ace were captured in Colditz Castle in October 1944. When they tried to escape, Ace was killed, and left behind her Walkman. This provided the Nazis with laser technology, which they exploited to win the Second World War. Immediately afterwards, the Doctor returned to Germany in 1955, where he was shot by Nazi soldiers. He later regenerated into an alternative version of his eighth incarnation. (AUDIO: Colditz [+]Loading...["Colditz (audio story)"], Klein's Story [+]Loading...["Klein's Story (audio story)"])

In a timeline where Elizabeth Klein used the Doctor's TARDIS to rewrite history so that the Nazis won the war, and helped the Galactic Reich conquer potential threats by travelling back in time to give them forewarning, the Doctor, who remembered the correct timeline, was captured and imprisoned on the Moon, but managed to secretly contact the Selachians and supplied them with the necessary technology to destroy the Moonbase. When Klein came to visit the Doctor to find out where his TARDIS was, the Selachians attacked the base. The Doctor and Klein escaped in the TARDIS, where the Doctor informed her that the Time Lords had tried her and found her guilty, and she was erased from history, along with the alternate Doctor, restoring things to their correct order.

Casting[[edit] | [edit source]]

In popular culture[[edit] | [edit source]]

  • After the original series ended, Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred played characters called the Professor and Ace, respectively, in the Audio Adventures in Time & Space audio series produced by BBV Productions. The stories were initially implied to be a continuation of Doctor Who, but these connections decreased when the Professor was renamed the Dominie and Aldred's character Alice.
  • In the BBC medical soap opera Doctors, McCoy guest-starred as Graham Capelli, an actor who had played the titular role in The Amazing Lollipop Man, a cult 1980s children's television series. The character of the Lollipop Man had many similarities to the Doctor.
  • An Easter Egg referencing the Seventh Doctor appears in the seventh episode of the first season of the Nickelodeon children's horror series, Are You Afraid of the Dark? , "The Tale of the Captured Souls" , in which the Seventh Doctor's hat and coat can be seen hanging from a hatstand at two points in the episode.

The Cartmel Masterplan[[edit] | [edit source]]

Season 25 and 26 had broad hints that the Doctor was not simply a Time Lord, as previously shown and stated. This overarching plot, conceived by Script Editor Andrew Cartmel and referred to by fans as the Cartmel Masterplan, was designed to restore an element of mystery in the Doctor and his true nature as in the stories of the first and second incarnations. Although the cancellation of the series at the end of Season 26 prevented further on-screen exploration of this arc, it was later given full rein in the Virgin New Adventures novel series.
