The Third Doctor was the third incarnation of the famous Doctor; a time lord from the planet Gallifrey. This incarnation was forced by his own people into exile on Earth where he worked with UNIT led by Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart and all his companions. During his time, he tried endlessly to fix his TARDIS in order to be able to travel again. While investigating with UNIT he met three new companions, Elisabeth Shaw, Jo Grant and Sarah-Jane Smith with whom he fought Daleks, Autons and most importantly, the Master. The Third Doctor was killed and forced to regenerate after battling with the Eight Legs.
Biography[]
The Doctor became intrigued with the going on of Space Centre and when arriving there, he requested to have his own laboratory in order to help them find and help Charles Van Lyden and the other astronauts trapped in space. He grew a grudge towards Professor Bruno Taltalian who was working secretly with General Carrington and Sir James Quinlan in capturing the Alien Ambassadors. The Doctor became even more annoyed when his companion, Elisabeth Shaw was captured.
He mainly worked with the Brigadier in finding the location of Recovery 7 and the mysterious transmission from Earth. Believing that the astronauts Charles Van Lyden, Joe Lefee and Frank Michaels remained somewhere in space, the Doctor decided to take Recovery 7 back up into space and find Mars Probe 7. Leader, Ralph Cornish, complied, however General Carrington wasn't keen. In space, the Doctor talked with the Ambassador Captain inside the Ambassador's Ship and was asked to exchange the Ambassadors for the astronauts.
Returning to Earth, the Doctor was removed from Space Centre, and taken by Reegan to help create a Translation device with Liz Shaw. He used it to call Sergeant Benton in the UNIT Headquarters. The Brigadier released him from capture and he returned the Ambassadors to Space Centre while stopping General Carrington from making a broadcast at the same time. (The Ambassadors of Death)
