Deleted this from Myths:

The Time Lords "allowed" the Doctor to make this journey to Peladon. (There's no reference in the episode, either as televised or novelized, to Time Lords. The implication is that the Doctor has fully restored the TARDIS himself. Indeed, the fact that Peladon wasn't his destination suggests that he's overcome the limitation placed on him at the end of The Claws of Axos).

as the Doctor believes at the end of the episode that the Time Lords did allow the yourney to Peladon - here's the summary of the bit that mentions their involvement, from the Doctor Who reference guide (watched the episode myself last night, so can confirm):

In a room, he shows her the TARDIS. Some of Peladon's stout lads heaved it up the mountainside. He reminds her the TARDIS is indestructible when she asks if the ship is all right. Jo and he hope the TARDIS will get them back to Earth this time. They both figure the Time Lords made the TARDIS appear in this crucial point in the history of Peladon. "The Time Lords again," Jo says, "You didn't beat them after all." The Doctor rubs the right side of his neck, "No, not yet but I will Jo, just give me time." He supposed the Time Lords will whip them straight back to Earth. 86.29.23.209 16:41, February 2, 2010 (UTC)

David Troughton

"The serial featured David Troughton, the son of Patrick Troughton, formerly the Second Doctor, in his second appearance guest starring on the programme." This statement seems ambiguous to me, but wrong in any case. Is it saying this is his second time as a guest star? He's hardly a guest star in The War Games. Or is it saying it's his second appearance in Doctor Who? It's his third, after The Enemy of the World and The War Games. 165.225.80.59talk to me 16:03, August 11, 2016 (UTC)
