Revealing mistake: In episode 1 when the Doctor, Ian, Barbara, and Vicky leave the TARDIS, wheels are visible which move the prop around. There is also no back to the prop.
Revealing mistake: In episode 1 when the Doctor is checking the controls you can see the studio lights to the top left corner where the set doesn't completely connect.
Revealing mistake: The "American" accents in this episode are all over the map and frequently inconsistent within the same scene.
The Power of the Daleks - S4-E3
Revealing mistake: The Daleks that appear in this and other Doctor Who stories were rather expensive, so some ingenuity was required to make the small number available look like they were more than they were. Tricks employed in "The Power of the Daleks" included making four Daleks look like an army by having them circle around the set a few times (note the delay between the fourth Dalek exiting and the "fifth" Dalek entering), and the blatant use of photographic blow-ups in place of "real" Daleks.
The Moonbase - S4-E6
Revealing mistake: The doors and walls wobble badly as Jamie and Ben barricade the entrance to the medical unit.
The Tomb of the Cybermen - S5-E1
Revealing mistake: When Kaftan is activating the revitaliser controls, you can see Patrick Troughton moving into position for when he runs and grabs her.
The Tomb of the Cybermen - S5-E1
Revealing mistake: The Cybermen retreat into their tombs backwards; this was achieved by simply having the film of them coming out of their tombs run in reverse.
The Tomb of the Cybermen - S5-E1
Revealing mistake: When Jamie and the Doctor try to open the doors to the tomb, watch them push it with their feet.
The Tomb of the Cybermen - S5-E1
Revealing mistake: During the fight scene between Toberman and the Cybercontroller, the Cybercontroller uses a very visible harness to lift Toberman over his head, and the wires attached to the harness Toberman is wearing are also very visible. When Toberman, in return, lifts the Cybercontroller above HIS head, it is obvious that what Toberman is lifting is an empty costume, with no-one inside it.
The Invasion - S6-E3
Revealing mistake: The Cyberman that falls from the roof in the final episode is obviously an empty costume. (This is another example of a mistake being repeated from an earlier episode. See the earlier story "The Tomb of the Cybermen" for a note about the same 'revealing' mistake happening).
Revealing mistake: When Slaar discovers the video link is operational and being viewed on Earth, in the closeups of Slaar we can see the edge of the reptilian mask and the actor's real human neck. (00:20:40)
Revealing mistake: When Jamie is wrestling with one of The Ice Warriors in a storage room, one of them gives the wall an almighty knock and it nearly falls down.
Revealing mistake: Episode 6, while in the barn Von Weich asks Moor (played by David Troughton, son of Patrick, who plays The Doctor) to retrieve the monocle in his pocket. Then, when Von Weich continues with his plan, in his closeups we can see a vertical piece of mesh tape over the actor's right eye. (00:13:05)
Revealing mistake: When the resistance are storming the landing bay, one of them punches at least a foot to the right of a guard's face, but he still collapses.
Revealing mistake: When the Doctor falls out of the TARDIS, near the beginning, he nearly manages to pull off the entire TARDIS door.
Revealing mistake: In episode 5, when the Doctor kills the Primord with the fire extinguisher, he says 'he's dead this time' but the Primord is breathing. (00:07:10)
Revealing mistake: In episode 3, when the Doctor is squaring off against the drooling madman, the madman is inside the perimeter railings. When the soldiers shoot him and he 'falls', however, he has moved outside the railings, enabling the stuntman to jump safely. (00:10:40)
Revealing mistake: In episode 6, when the Brigade Leader shoots the Primord Stahlmann, he falls down but no bullet holes are made in his costume. Thanks to Producer Barry Letts for spotting this one on the DVD commentary. (00:17:00)
Revealing mistake: In episode 6, during the generally poor fight sequence between the Brigade Leader and Greg Sutton, Greg's first punch to the face misses the Brigade Leader by miles. (00:19:10)
Revealing mistake: In episode one, a wall wobbles as Benton hammers a nail into it.
Answer: TARDISes are generally available for properly authorised use on Gallifrey; they're not usually assigned to a particular Timelord on a long-term basis. The Doctor stole his when he left his homeworld.
