Corrected entry: In an earlier episode the Doctor states that he is about three hundred years old, in this episode however the pin code on the Rani's door is three digits long and starts with nine, to which the doctor responds "hmm, that's our age." he can't have aged that much as none of his companions aged more than a couple of years.

Mission to the Unknown - S3-E2
Plot hole: The Daleks announce their secret plan on the city's external loudspeaker system, where Cory hears it. It can hardly be a 'secret' plan if it is broadcast for all to hear...
The Doctor: This is a situation that requires tact and finesse. Fortunately, I am blessed with both.

Trivia: The first thing the Third Doctor does on-screen is collapse out of the TARDIS, which is also the last thing he does in that incarnation.
Question: If the Doctor gets a TARDIS, does that mean other Timelords get a TARDIS as well?
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.

Correction: Bear in mind that this is a show about time travel. The Doctor has many adventures off-camera as well, and although it's implied otherwise, there's no saying that companions aren't occasionally dropped off and picked up again later, making it entirely possible for decades or centuries to pass for The Doctor between adventures.
