Derek Jacobi first played the Master in the sadly unsuccessful relaunch cartoon, Scream of the Shalka. Then he got to play the Master for real in the TV Series. Now his version of the Master is set to return in the Big Finish Audios.
It will be interesting to see how the chaacter is integrated with first appearance as Professor Yana. The Doctor didn't recognize Professor Yana so we can assume the earlier Doctors never met this incarnation in person. In Utopia we are told that the Master was found on the coast of the silver devastation as a child. I'd always assumed he'd regenerated and become a child again, but perhaps he'd always been an adult and was simply de-aged himself.
