While based on 20th century Earth, a Time Lord appeared to warn the Doctor of the coming of [[the Master]], an indirect way of sending him on a mission to defeat the Master's plots. The Time Lords were impressed with the ingenuity of the Master's plans, yet did not interfere themselves. ([[TV]]: ''[[Terror of the Autons]]'') For a period of time thereafter, the Doctor repeatedly encountered the Master and foiled his various plots. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Mind of Evil]]'' to ''[[The Dæmons]]'', inclusive) | While based on 20th century Earth, a Time Lord appeared to warn the Doctor of the coming of [[the Master]], an indirect way of sending him on a mission to defeat the Master's plots.

The appearance of the Time Lord who warned the Doctor of the Master's return prefigured a period of time in which the Time Lords allowed the Doctor occasional reprieves from exile. When it suited their purposes, the Time Lords would send the Doctor on controlled flights away from Earth on specific missions. The Time Lords allowed the Doctor full use of his TARDIS to stop the Master on an Earth colony in the future. ([[TV]]: ''[[Colony in Space]]'') Later, they allowed him to travel to [[Peladon]], although the Doctor initially believed that he had repaired the ship himself, only to conclude after he and Jo Grant had saved Peladon during a vital peace conference that their presence at such a crucial time in the planet's history was too significant to be a coincidence.

The Time Lords allowed the Doctor full use of his TARDIS to stop the Master's efforts to acquire a doomsday weapon on an Earth colony in the future.

([[TV]]: ''[[The Curse of Peladon]]'') The Time Lords also sent him on a direct mission to convey a message to [[Ky]], a [[Solonian]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Mutants (TV story)|The Mutants]]'') On at least two occasions, the Doctor managed to pilot the TARDIS on his own, but this was when he was dealing with the temporal ruptures created by the [[Sild]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Harvest of Time (novel)|Harvest of Time]]'') and when he was tracking the Master's TARDIS to avert his new control of [[Kronos]].

Some time later, the Doctor and Jo landed on [[Procyon Two]], but before the TARDIS could completely materialise, the Time Lords sent the TARDIS back to Earth.
