Forced into an [[exile on Earth]] in the [[20th century]] by the [[Time Lord]]s, with his TARDIS rendered inoperable, the '''Third Doctor''' was a distinguished man of high class and gadgetry, often tinkering away with contraptions or working on his prized car, [[Bessie]], when he was not assisting [[Brigadier]] [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]] and his [[UNIT]] troops Sergeant [[John Benton]] and Captain [[Mike Yates]] in their fight against invading aliens, working with them as their [[scientific advisor]], initially alongside Dr. [[Liz Shaw]], until she decided to return to the [[University of Cambridge]] to pursue her own work. The Doctor often took exception to the Brigadier's military approach, especially concerning the outcome of the [[Wenley Moor Affair]], just as the Brigadier was frequently irritated by the Doctor's air of superiority and seeming disregard for authority, but they ultimately developed an easy mutual trust and strong friendship. | Forced into an [[exile on Earth]] in the [[20th century]] by the [[Time Lord]]s, with his TARDIS rendered inoperable, the '''Third Doctor''' was a distinguished man of high class and gadgetry, often tinkering away with contraptions or working on his prized car, [[Bessie]], when he was not assisting [[Brigadier]] [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]] and his [[UNIT]] troops Sergeant [[John Benton]] and Captain [[Mike Yates]] in their fight against invading aliens, working with them as their [[scientific advisor]], initially alongside Dr. [[Liz Shaw]], until she decided to return to the [[University of Cambridge]] to pursue her own work.

No sooner had Jo arrived that the Third Doctor became entangled in an ongoing battle of wits against [[The Master (Terror of the Autons)|the Master]], who also became stranded on Earth when the Doctor stole the [[dematerialisation circuit]] from [[the Master's TARDIS]] in an attempt to fix his own, until he was forced to return it during the [[Stangmoor Incident]]. However, the Master's attempt to ally with [[Axos]] forced him to ally with the Doctor, allowing him to trick his two foes into partially repairing his TARDIS, though with him stuck as a "galactic yo-yo" that would always have to return to his exile. | ||
After the Master was finally arrested by UNIT following his failure to ally with the [[Dæmon]] [[Azal]] at [[Devil's End]], the Doctor found himself pushing the limits of exile as he travelled to [[Alternate timeline (Day of the Daleks)|an alternate future]] ruled by [[Dalek]]s, visited [[Peladon]] for the first time, and was even recruited by the Time Lords for a mission on [[30th century]] [[Solos]]. After the Master escaped his imprisonment with aid from the [[Sea Devil]]s, the Doctor and Jo ended up chasing him to Ancient [[Atlantis]], where they stopped him harnessing the power of [[Kronos]] the [[Chronovore]], though the Doctor allowed him to escape. | After the Master was finally arrested by UNIT following his failure to ally with the [[Dæmon]] [[Azal]] at [[Devil's End]], the Doctor found himself pushing the limits of exile as he travelled to [[Alternate timeline (Day of the Daleks)|an alternate future]] ruled by [[Dalek]]s, visited [[Peladon]] for the first time, and was even recruited by the Time Lords for a mission on [[30th century]] [[Solos]].
