=== A day to come ===

<!--This section if for the hints and teases the Doctor finds out about his future regenerations, as well as incidents where he almost regenerates into his next incarnation. Multi-Doctor events do not belong in this section, as such events are removed from the younger Doctor's memory and he forgets the encounter, though trace memories may count.-->

The [[First Doctor]] would occasionally have premonitions of his future incarnations, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[A Big Hand for the Doctor (short story)|A Big Hand for the Doctor]]'') 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 (novel)|Christmas on a Rational Planet]]'', ''[[Lungbarrow (novel)|Lungbarrow]]'')

The First Doctor was 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]]: ''[[Twice Upon a Time (TV story)|Twice Upon a Time]]'')

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]]: ''[[Fear of the Dark (novel)|Fear of the Dark]]'')

During an encounter with {{O'Mara}} on [[Koturia]], the Sixth Doctor was warned his regeneration could "happen sooner than [he thought]". ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Something Borrowed (short story)|Something Borrowed]]'')

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]]: ''[[The Ultimate Foe (TV story)|The Ultimate Foe]]'')

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]]: ''[[Trial of the Valeyard (audio story)|Trial of the Valeyard]]'')

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]]: ''[[The 100 Days of the Doctor (audio story)|The 100 Days of the Doctor]]'')

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]]: ''[[Piece of Mind (audio story)|Piece of Mind]]'')

=== Post-regeneration ===

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 (TV story)|Time and the Rani]]'')

=== 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]]: ''[[Unregenerate! (audio story)|Unregenerate!]]'')

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]]: ''[[Red (audio story)|Red]]'')  

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 (comic story)|Plastic Millenium]]'')

=== 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]]: ''[[uPVC (short story)|uPVC]]'')

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]]: ''[[Where's the Doctor? (comic story)|Where's the Doctor?]]'')

=== Ending the Dalek civil war ===

[[File:Ashes_to_ashes._Dust_to_dust.jpg|thumb|"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust." ([[TV]]: ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)|Remembrance of the Daleks]]'')]]

=== Further travels with Ace ===

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]]: ''[[The Happiness Patrol (TV story)|The Happiness Patrol]]'')

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 the [[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]]: ''[[1963: The Assassination Games (audio story)|1963: The Assassination Games]]'')

=== Temporary companions ===

After leaving Ace in the Cretaceous period, ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Train-Flight (comic story)|Train-Flight]]'') 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]]: ''[[A Cold Day in Hell! (comic story)|A Cold Day in Hell!]]'') 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]]: ''[[Redemption! (comic story)|Redemption!]]'')

The Doctor carried a [[Telphin]] life-seed to Earth, ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Memorial (comic story)|Memorial]]'') and returned to [[Seetar]] to put a stop the human sacrifices made to worship his [[first incarnation]] and [[Ian Chesterton]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[A Religious Experience (comic story)|A Religious Experience]]'')

The Doctor tracked down [[Mary Barton]] after she ran away again and finally told her the truth that she had been created as a weapon. ([[PROSE]]: [[There's Something About Mary (short story)|''There’s Something About Mary'']])

=== Growing darker ===

Returning to [[Mongolia]] during the Cretaceous period to pick up Ace, the Doctor encountered a pit of [[Dhole]]s and an alien slave who had escaped from a nearby construction site. Ace arrived with a herd of assorted [[dinosaur]]s to trample the site, destroying it and freeing the slaves. The Doctor and Ace then departed together. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Living in the Past (short story)|Living in the Past]]'')

The Doctor attended a school reunion at [[Hexen Bridge]], a school at which he was one of the governors. He was kidnapped by [[Jerak]], the other half of the [[Malus]] war machine which he had defeated in his [[fifth incarnation]]. After being turned into a walking bomb and manipulated to perform tasks that brought misery to Jerak's enemies, the Doctor stopped Jerak's plan to poison the world's [[water]] supply with a chemical that would turn the human race into insane murderers, and Ace destroyed Jerak's gateway domain, destroying him. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Hollow Men (novel)|The Hollow Men]]'')

=== Work to do ===

While visiting some friends, the Doctor and Ace were ambushed by {{Ainley}} and the [[Cheetah People]], who had also captured the Doctor's friends. After burying the Master in an avalanche, the Doctor was able to liberate his friends by tricking the Cheetah People into a net. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dr. Seventh (novel)|Dr. Seventh]]'')

Taking a break from their adventures, the Doctor and Ace visited [[1645]] [[Chelmsford]] to make repairs to the TARDIS. Saving a young girl called [[Tilly Brewer]] from a gang of witch hunters, they learned she had been infected by the [[Skeeth]], a parasite that transformed its victims into fire breathing beasts. 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. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Devil Like a Bear (short story)|The Devil Like a Bear]]'')

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]]: ''[[Thin Ice (audio story)|Thin Ice]]'')

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.

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. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Split Infinitive (audio story)|The Split Infinitive]]'')

=== Trouble with the Timewyrm ===

[[File:Virgin New Adventures TARDIS control room.jpg|thumb|left|Ace and the Doctor in the TARDIS, preparing to land in Mesopotamia. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The New Adventures Prologue (short story)|The New Adventures Prologue]]'')]]

=== The best of friends ===

Visiting [[Smithwood Manor]], the Doctor and Ace defeated a pair of [[Hitcher]]s who had possessed a cat and an elderly woman named Mrs. [[Lacy]]. The pair departed, leaving the sole surviving Hitcher within [[Ella Cooper]] as a form of protection for the house. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Fellow Travellers (comic story)|Fellow Travellers]]'')

Aided by his other incarnations and their companions, the Seventh Doctor and Ace helped [[Dan Dare]] to fight off [[the Mekon]] and his army of [[Treen]]s, [[Dalek]]s, [[Ice Warrior]]s, [[Cybermen]], [[Sontaran]]s and [[Draconian]]s in [[1991]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Comic Relief Comic (comic story)|Comic Relief Comic]]'')

Becoming increasingly concerned about the multitude of alien beings which had recently been drawn to Earth and the TARDIS' 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]]: ''[[Distractions (comic story)|Distractions]]'') 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. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Mark of Mandragora (comic story)|The Mark of Mandragora]]'')

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]]: ''[[The Grief (comic story)|The Grief]]'')

=== Beginnings as Time's champion ===

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.

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]]: ''[[Forever Fallen (audio story)|Forever Fallen]]'')

=== Losing Ace ===

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.

The Doctor observed [[Sonia Bannen]] being killed in a food riot, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Parasite (novel)|Parasite]]'') and attended the funeral of [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]] with all of his other incarnations. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Gift (ST short story)|The Gift]]'', ''[[Shroud of Sorrow (novel)|Shroud of Sorrow]]'')

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]]: ''[[Love and War (novel)|Love and War]]'')

=== First exploits with Benny ===

When Benny asked to see some [[Gallifreyan history]], the Doctor used a 3-D [[Hologram|holo]]-simulation in the TARDIS to show her the day his [[first incarnation]] saved a sphere of living [[Artron energy]] from his old friend [[Magnus (Flashback)|Magnus]], only for his actions to result in the final falling out between the two. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Flashback (comic story)|Flashback]]'')

In search of a [[Fortean Flicker]] somehow related to the legends of [[Sakkrat]] and the [[Highest Science]], the Doctor and Benny arrived on the planet [[Hogsumm]] and, encountering a troop of [[Chelonian]]s who had been transported to the planet by the Flicker, were separated. 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]]: ''[[The Highest Science (novel)|The Highest Science]]'')

=== Ace returns ===

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]]: ''[[Deceit (novel)|Deceit]]'') 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]]: ''[[Lucifer Rising (novel)|Lucifer Rising]]'')  

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]]: ''[[Cuckoo (comic story)|Cuckoo]]'')

=== Struggling with alternate timelines ===

=== Amicable travels ===

Now roaming the universe amicably, the three friends visited many planets, including [[Olleril]], during its annual [[Tragedy Day]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Tragedy Day (novel)|Tragedy Day]]'') and [[Peladon]], whilst tracking [[the Diadem]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Legacy (novel)|Legacy]]'')

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]]: ''[[The Shadow of the Scourge (audio story)|The Shadow of the Scourge]]'')

=== Alone with Benny ===

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]]: ''[[Infinite Requiem (novel)|Infinite Requiem]]'')

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]]: ''[[Sanctuary (novel)|Sanctuary]]'') 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]]: ''[[Human Nature (novel)|Human Nature]]'')

=== Joined by two Adjudicators ===

[[File:Original Sin Doctor.jpg|thumb|The Doctor encounters Chris and Roz. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Original Sin (novel)|Original Sin]]'')]]

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]]: ''[[Head Games (novel)|Head Games]]'') 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]]: ''[[The Also People (novel)|The Also People]]'')

[[File:The Wedding of Jason Kane and Bernice Summerfield.jpg|thumb|left|The Doctor attends the wedding of Jason Kane and Bernice Summerfield. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Happy Endings (novel)|Happy Endings]]'')]]

=== Travelling with Chris and Roz ===

Now one member smaller, the TARDIS crew continued their travels, discovering an ancient Martian weapon known as the [[GodEngine]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[GodEngine (novel)|GodEngine]]'') visiting America in the 20th and 21st centuries ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Christmas on a Rational Planet (novel)|Christmas on a Rational Planet]]'') and reuniting with Benny to aid her in her search for [[Isaac Summerfield]], her father. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Return of the Living Dad (novel)|Return of the Living Dad]]'')

=== Alone with Chris ===

=== Champion's end ===

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

=== Moving on ===

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]]: ''[[Notre Dame du Temps (short story)|Notre Dame du Temps]]'')

=== Old friends reunited ===

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]]: ''[[The Revolution (audio story)|The Revolution]]'')

=== New adventures with Ace ===

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]]: ''[[The Prisoner's Dilemma (audio story)|The Prisoner's Dilemma]]'')

=== Hex joins ===

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]]: ''[[The Harvest (audio story)|The Harvest]]'')

=== Battling the Elder Gods ===

Lured into the [[Celestial Toyroom]], the Doctor, Ace and Hex managed to aid a group of humans in defeating the [[Celestial 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 (audio story)|The Magic Mousetrap]]'') though the Doctor was now aware of Fenric's impending return, having found a chess set in the sanatorium. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Gods and Monsters (audio story)|Gods and Monsters]]'')

=== 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]]: ''[[You Are the Doctor (audio story)|You Are the Doctor]]'')

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]]: ''[[The Quantum Possibility Engine (audio story)|The Quantum Possibility Engine]]'')

=== Alone again ===

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]]: ''[[Last of the Titans (audio story)|Last of the Titans]]'')

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]]: ''[[The Psychic Circus (audio story)|The Psychic Circus]]'')

=== Adventures with Mags ===

=== Resolving old business ===

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 (audio story)|Persuasion]]'')

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. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Master (audio story)|Master]]'')

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]]: ''[[Valhalla (audio story)|Valhalla]]'')

Under the guise of "Mr. Ashcroft", the Doctor took possession of the surveillance tapes of [[Bianca's]] bar. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Wormery (audio story)|The Wormery]]'')

=== Search for the Persuasion machine ===

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.

=== Nearing the end ===

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.

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 (audio story)|Zagreus]]'')

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]]: ''[[The Lost Magic (audio story)|The Lost Magic]]'')

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 (novel)|So Vile a Sin]]'')

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]]: ''[[Colditz (audio story)|Colditz]]'', ''[[Klein's Story (audio story)|Klein's 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.
