Backtime was a comic adventure of the no-longer-exiled Third Doctor in the pages of Countdown, originally published in 1971.
Summary
The Doctor is in London in 1863 when his TARDIS key is stolen by young pickpocket Charlie Fisher. When a policeman finds a 1970s bank note on the Doctor, he finds himself arrested for forgery but the Doctor and Charlie escape in the TARDIS.
