TARDIS-proofed. And actually so, if even three Doctors couldn't get in without an alternate back door (well, painting).

How? It seems unlikely even with UNIT's increased access to alien tech (and alien advisors other than the Doctor, if the Vlinx is any indication). Did the Doctor themself work on such a system (perhaps to prevent the Master materialising in UNIT HQ), only to have it turned against them?

Has it ever been revealed in novels/EU material?

You'd think the Daleks etc would be VERY interested in stopping the Doctor popping up unexpectedly.

How?

So the show can happen.

Has it ever been revealed in novels/EU material?

No.

You'd think the Daleks etc would be VERY interested in stopping the Doctor popping up unexpectedly.

Dalek weapons are capable of killing a Time Lord and preventing them from regenerating, and as per Journey's End they can very easily break into a TARDIS. I doubt they have any issue with the Doctor or any Time Lords popping up unexpectedly. Though by the same virtue, it's not unreasonable to assume they also possess TARDIS-proof technology.

But, if the Doctor knows all of the above, couldn't they find a way to TARDIS-proof-proof the TARDIS? To Reverse-TARDIS-proof?
