At some point after his direct involvement with the CIA, the Time Lords carried out the first of their sentences: the Second Doctor was exiled to Earth.

The Doctor experienced a period of unconsciousness and partial amnesia, but he recovered and helped [[United Nations Intelligence Taskforce|UNIT]] defeat the Nestene Consciousness's [[Auton]]s. The Doctor agreed to stay on as UNIT's unpaid scientific advisor in exchange for a place to park the TARDIS and technical resources he needed to repair his ship.

([[DW]]: ''[[The Claws of Axos]]'') Chief amongst these were the materialisation codes needed to operate the TARDIS. ([[DW]]: ''[[Spearhead from Space]]'') Indeed, the dematerialisation circuit itself was damaged beyond the Doctor's ability to repair it. ([[DW]]: ''[[Terror of the Autons]]'', ''[[The Three Doctors]]'') This didn't stop the Doctor, with the help of his UNIT assistants Dr. [[Liz Shaw]] and, later, [[Jo Grant]], from attempting to repair the TARDIS. At one point this led to the Doctor accidentally breaking the First Law of Time by creating a minor paradox in which he and Jo encountered future versions of themselves.

During his exile, the Doctor adopted a "surrogate TARDIS" of sorts in the form of [[Bessie]], an automobile the Doctor modified for speed. He also designed and built a [[Whomobile|vehicle]] capable of flight, though he only used it on a few occasions. | During his exile, the Doctor adopted a "surrogate TARDIS" of sorts in the form of [[Bessie]], an automobile the Doctor modified for speed.

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, but also his [[First Doctor|first]] and [[Second Doctor|second]] as well (although due to technical issues, the first Doctor was only able to contribute advice).

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 ([[DW]]: ''[[Robot (TV story)|Robot]]'', ''[[Terror of the Zygons]]'', ''[[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 .([[DW]]: ''[[The Poison Sky]]'') | 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.
