Featuring the remembered Fitz (informative mention)

Written by Justin Richards.

Silhouette   Novel, published 2014                                     Doctor: 12

Featuring the Earth Reptiles, the Sontarans, the Paternoster Gang, Clara

Written by Justin Richards.

Informed guess Takes place in London, after Deep Breath; self-dated January. The January of 1895 CE was exceptionally cold: although the Thames has not frozen over since 1814 CE, the Serpentine and some docks did on this occasion, so the “frost fair” could have taken place on several bodies of water in the metropolis.


The Adventure of the Gamekeeper’s Folly   Audio drama, released 2013    Doctor: 0

Featuring Sherlock Holmes

Written by Jonathan Barnes.

Informed guess Takes place in London and Norfolk; self-dated 1895 CE.

Jago & Litefoot & Patsy   Audio drama, released 2014        Doctor: 0

Featuring the Vampires, Jago, Litefoot

Truth and Bone   Audio drama, released 2020                           Doctor: 0                    

Featuring the Earth Reptiles, the Sontarans, the Paternoster Gang

Written by Roy Gill.

Informed guess Takes place in London, after Whatever Remains as released.


The Adventure of Wisteria Lodge   Illustrated short story, published 1908     Doctor: 0

Featuring Sherlock Holmes

Written by Arthur Conan Doyle.

Informed guess Takes place in London and Surrey. Watson’s records (consulted almost two decades later) date it in March 1892 CE, but this was during the time that Holmes was thought dead. It certainly occurs after The Adventure of the Empty Room: 1895 CE presents us with the first available March.


Wardenclyffe   Short story, published 2016                               Doctor: 0

Featuring Erimem

Written by Kaitlin Moore.

Takes place in New York, NY.; self-dated March 1895.

Takes place in London, after Jago and Litefoot and Patsy as released.


The Pneuman League   Illustrated short story, published 2016   Doctor: 0

Featuring the Earth Reptiles, the Sontarans, the Paternoster Gang

Written by James Peatty.

Informed guess Takes place in London; self-dated 1895. The little boy named Steptoe is slightly too old to be the Albert Steptoe featured in the TV series Steptoe and Son, but too young to be his father, the original Steptoe who started the business. I surmise that the boy is Albert’s older brother, who had predeceased him by the time of the series’s pilot episode: not only is Harold not named on the gate, but (perhaps unbeknown to Harold), neither is Albert.


The Flying Frenchmen   Audio drama, released 2015         Doctor: 0

Featuring the Vampires, Jago, Litefoot

Written by Jonathan Morris.

Takes place at sea, soon after Higson and Quick and “eighty years” after the Battle of Waterloo.

Featuring the Earth Reptiles, the Sontarans, the Paternoster Gang

Written by Grant Perkins.

Written by Arthur Conan Doyle.

Takes place in London and Surrey; self-dated May 1895 CE.

                                                                                                             Doctor: 0

Featuring the Earth Reptiles, the Sontarans, the Paternoster Gang

Written by Rik Hoskin.

Informed guess Takes place in London; self-dated 1895 CE.

 

H G Wells’s 1895 novella The Time Machine introduced both the concept and phrase of “time machine” and is certainly an ancestor of Doctor Who in that respect: it lurks around the edge of the narrative at several points.

 

The Adventure of the Three Students   Illustrated short story, published 1904     Doctor: 0

Featuring Sherlock Holmes

Written by Arthur Conan Doyle.

Takes place in a university town of the UK; dated May 1895 CE by Keefvauer in the Birlstone Railway Timetable.


Island of Death   Audio drama, released 2015                        Doctor: 0

Featuring Jago, Litefoot

Written by Simon Barnard and Paul Morris.

Informed guess Takes place at sea. The island is in Indonesia and they have sailed from Monte Carlo, so I’m guessing about a month after The Devil’s Dicemen.

Featuring Sherlock Holmes

Written by Arthur Conan Doyle.

Takes place in London and Sussex; self-dated July 1895 CE.

The Novel Dracula, by Bram Stoker was published in 1897. The main action takes place in a year when there was a full moon on August 11th, and 1873 was “nigh on” twenty years previously. 1889 is the year that best fits this description, and the novel concludes seven years later.

 

The Museum of Curiosities   Audio drama, released 2015    Doctor: 0

Featuring the Vampires, Jago, Litefoot, with the Master (glimpse)

Written by Simon Barnard and Paul Morris.

Informed guess Takes place in London; after Maurice.

 

The main action of Vice Versa, a 1948 body-swap comedy, takes place in 1896. Body-swapping has a long-standing place in Doctor Who, but I’m principally including this as a production in which Tom Bake would have fitted right in if he had been about thirty years earlier.

Featuring the Master, the Vampires, Jago, Litefoot

Featuring Lucie, the Headhunter

Written by Eddie Robson.

Informed guess Takes place in Sweden; self-dated 1898 CE.

 

H G Wells’s 1898 novel The War of the Worlds certainly intersects the Second War in Heaven (The Book of the Enemy) as perhaps do the first two volumes of Alan Moore’s and Kevin O’Neill’s The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, that narratively lead into it and out of it.

A Labyrinth of Histories   Audio drama, released 2004      Doctor: 0

Featuring the Second War in Heaven, Faction Paradox, with Compassion (glimpse)

Written by Lawrence Miles.

Takes place partly in Lancashire and immediately after Movers. I think I may have identified a Lawrence Miles trope here: just as Khiste in Dead Romance is a grim future version of Chris, I suggest that Shuncucker is a grim future version of Cousin Justine. Perhaps centuries in the future: “Shuncucker” could represent “Cousin Justine” undergoing a long time of pronunciation-shift.


The Justice of Jalxar   Audio drama, released 2013                 Doctor: 4

Featuring Jago, Litefoot, Romana

Written by John Dorney.
