In a parallel universe, the Leader was the President of the Republic of Great Britain and the third incarnation of the Time Lord known as the Doctor. (PROSE: Timewyrm: Revelation)

Biography

This universe's version of the Second Doctor selected one of the bodies offered to him by the Time Lords after his trial. Like his counterpart, this version of the Doctor was banished to Earth in the late 20th century, where he became President of the Republic of Great Britain. (PROSE: Timewyrm: Revelation)

The Leader may have been at least partly responsible for his Earth's much more advanced technology. He died in the volcanic catastrophe that struck Great Britain in the aftermath of I-Day. (PROSE: The Face of the Enemy)

Behind the scenes
