The third Doctor, his adventures and the actor who played him were all rediscovered and raked over by fandom in the 1990s, and Tides of Time writers were not excepted. This release contains some of the responses the third Doctor received during the first twenty-eight issues of Tides of Time, from the serious to the flippant, to the bizarre.

Articles which were included in earlier releases are marked with an asterisk (*).
