Professor Arthur Candy was on the faculty of Luna University's archaeology department. Much of his research centred on the Doctor. He concluded that the Doctor had a generally negative and dangerous effect on history. His attempt to give a lecture to this effect in 2643 was pre-empted by the Doctor. (PROSE: Continuity Errors) The Doctor left him in Birmingham in 1996. (PROSE: Afterword by Professor Candy)

In 2593, Professor Candy accompanied Bernice Summerfield to a dig on Perfecton, where he experienced the action of the Grel and what happened in Pantoland. (AUDIO: Oh No It Isn't)

In 5123, Professor Candy conducted River Song's graduate admissions interview. In response to his query as to her motivation to study archaeology, she cryptically answered that she was "looking for a good man." (TV: Let's Kill Hitler)
