I consider this canon as Timothy Dalton did play a Time Lord at the end of the David Tennant era.

Unconfirmed AFAIK but a lot of fans identify Dalton's part as Rassilon himself. That puts this hypothetical Bachelor in the top tier of Time Nobility.

Edit: I had to look this up! The TARDIS fandom wiki cites Dalton as playing Rassilon but it's only based on one mention in the actual script (pdf) where his character is listed as "The narrator" or "Lord president".

It's mentioned in the episode itself!
