The Doctor's exile, as recorded by [[Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart]], lasted for five straight years in the [[1970s]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Transit (novel)|Transit]]'') In an effort to defeat the renegade Time Lord [[Omega]], the Time Lords took the unprecedented step of not only recruiting the Doctor's third incarnation to stop Omega's attack, but also his [[First Doctor|first]] and [[Second Doctor|second]] as well. As a reward for the successful defeat of Omega, the Time Lords finally rescinded the Doctor's exile on Earth, granting him his lost memories as well as a brand new dematerialisation circuit to restore his TARDIS to working order.

Despite his exile coming to an end, the Doctor continued to work with UNIT on a regular basis and retain his home base there for the remainder of his third incarnation. Following his regeneration, however, the [[Fourth Doctor|new Doctor]] finally took full advantage of his freedom and quickly weaned himself away from UNIT, save for the occasional collaboration, ([[TV]]: ''[[Robot (TV story)|Robot]]'', ''[[Terror of the Zygons (TV story)|Terror of the Zygons]]'', ''[[The Android Invasion (TV story)|The Android Invasion]]'', etc.) and also took part in adventures on Earth on a less-frequent basis than he had done previously, although he never officially resigned from UNIT.

An alternate Doctor lived on Earth for over a thousand years, surrendering on Earth's behalf to an [[Ice Warrior]] invasion in 2010. He lived in a house and now used a wheelchair, having never regenerated. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[So Vile a Sin (novel)|So Vile a Sin]]'')

The [[Quantum Archangel]] created a parallel universe in which [[Melanie Bush]] was Prime Minister in [[2003]], with the Doctor still exiled on Earth in his third incarnation. During a [[Cybermen (Mondas)|Cybermen]] invasion, believing that the human race couldn't defeat the Cybermen, the Doctor betrayed Earth to the Cybermen to regain his ability to travel in time.

In [[Unbound Universe|another universe]], [[Unbound Doctor|the Doctor]] — regenerated into a different incarnation — arrived on Earth in [[Hong Kong (Unbound Universe)|Hong Kong]] in [[1997]] rather than on Earth in the 1970s,<!-- "Sympathy for the Devil" says that the Doctor was destined for the 70s --> witnessing a timeline where Earth had been forced to exist without him for almost thirty years. During this time, many things changed - without the Doctor, [[United Nations Intelligence Taskforce (Unbound Universe)|UNIT]] floundered and [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart (Unbound Universe)|Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]] was forced to make decisions which had consequences for Earth - Surrey was saturation bombed, plastic had been purged from the Earth, and there was a hole in the middle of London after a group of soldiers volunteered to go back in time to destroy the Silurians. Although the TARDIS was only able to travel in space as the Time Lords had placed an inhibitor in the ship and removed the Doctor's knowledge of how to bypass it, by taking the TARDIS to a location where a nuclear bomb was about to be detonated, the Doctor was able to give the ship a powerful "kick" that disabled the inhibitor and allowed him to travel freely once more.

In [[Parallel universe (Exile)|one universe]], the exile was self-imposed as an attempt to evade the [[Time Lord (Exile)|Time Lords]] after summoning them to deal with the War Lords. After arriving at [[London]] in [[2000]], [[Previous Doctor (Exile)|the Doctor]] died by suicide so that they could better hide, regenerating into [[the Doctor (Exile)|a female incarnation]] and working at [[Sainsbury's]] using [[Susan Foreman|Susan]]'s old forged identity papers. The Doctor lived like an ordinary human for some time before she was found by the Time Lords and punished for running away, with this sentence seeing her apparently tricked into dematerializing her TARDIS when it was programmed to disperse across the universe.

In one [[Inferno Earth|parallel universe]], the [[Second Doctor]] chose his new appearance out of the choices the [[Time Lord|Time Lords]] offered him, while losing his other regenerations. This [[The Leader|new incarnation]] landed in the [[1930s]], where he became an ally of [[Oswald Mosley]], and eventually gained power over Britain, selecting the title of "Leader" for himself. The Leader formed the fascistic [[Republic of Great Britain]], however this universe's version of the [[Inferno Project|Inferno project]] destroyed this parallel Earth.
