Then Again: The Third Kilocentury
The Long Game TV
story, broadcast 2005 Doctor:
9
Featuring
Rose, with the Face of Boe (glimpse)
Written by Russell T Davies.
Takes place above Earth; self-dated 200,000 CE.
The
Fate Of The Earth
Earth has a population of ninety-six billion, and
five moons. It belongs to the Fourth Great and Bountiful Human Empire: it is
unclear whether this is a political or just cultural entity.
Bad Wolf and The Parting
of the Ways TV story, broadcast 2005
Doctors: 9, with 10 (glimpse)
Featuring the Daleks, Rose, Mickey, Captain Jack,
with the Time Lords, Torchwood (informative mention)
Written by Russell T Davies.
Takes place above Earth; self-dated a century after The Long Game.
The Year After I Died Audio drama, released 2017 Doctor:
0
Featuring Captain Jack, with the
Daleks (informative mention)
Written by Guy Adams.
Takes place on and above Earth, including
near Blackcastle; self-dated a year after Bad Wolf and The Parting of the Ways.
We Will Feed You To the Trees Illustrated short story, published 2020 Doctor: 7
Written by Dave Rudden.
Arbitrary placement Takes
place on Outsmawe.
Flight to Calandra Audio drama,
released 2021 Doctor:
12
Featuring the Time Agency, with Nardole (informative mention)
Written by Matt Fitton.
Arbitrary placement Takes place in
Bristol, but mostly on Callandra.
The Infinity Season Illustrated short story,
published 1989 Doctor: 7
Written
by Dan Abnett.
Informed guess Takes place on Archimedes, clearly colonised by the
descendants of Tellurians. The obsession with the media suggests the Fourth
Great and Bounteous Earth Empire.
Sisters of the Flame and The
Vengeance of Morbius
Audio drama, released 2008 Doctor: 8
Featuring
the Time Lords, Lucie, with the
Headhunter (glimpse)
Written by Nicholas Briggs.
Informed guess Takes place in Mutter’s Spiral. Earth is part of an
intergalactic civilisation, plausibly about now. The Time Lords seem very timid
of Zarodnix: possibly they are the Time Lords restored from the back-up in the
Doctor’s memory in The
Gallifrey Chronicles, and are
traumatised and cautious: this would explain the suggestion that they are
contemporaneous with an interstellar Tellurian civilisation. Possibly the
Doctor established them now near a time when their reluctant allies and
cousins, the Sisterhood of Karn, are evidently secure.
Orbis Audio drama, released 2009 Doctor:
8
Featuring
Lucie, the Headhunter
Written by Alan Barnes and Nicholas Briggs.
Informed guess Takes place on Orbis; self-dated some six centuries
after Sisters of the Flame
and The Vengeance of Morbius.
Le Tour de Death Comic story,
published 2012 Doctor: 11
Featuring Amy or an Amy ganger, Rory
Written by Christopher Cooper.
Informed guess Takes place on Parisian Dix, in Tellurian space at a time not obviously
near any other. The law is upheld by Galactic Marshals.
Into the Dalek TV
story, broadcast 2014 Doctor: 12
Featuring the Daleks, Clara, with Missy (glimpse)
Written by Phil Ford and Steven Moffat.
Informed guess Takes place in Coal Hill School, but mostly in Tellurian space. Rusty
appears to remember events from Bad Wolf and
The Parting of the Ways. I am surprised to learn
that Rose left any Daleks alive to remember, but I assume that even though
these are post-Time War Daleks, they have lost their time-travel capability, or
they would not be bothering with interstellar fleet-warfare. I am consequently
placing this in the early third kilocentury.
Soft Target Short story,
published 2020 Doctor:
0
Featuring Chris
Written
by Vince Stadon.
Arbitrary placement Takes
place indeterminately.
The Krotons TV
story, broadcast 1969 Doctor:
2
featuring
Jamie, Zoe, the Krotons
Written by Robert Holmes, script edited by Terrance
Dicks.
Arbitrary placement
Takes place on the planet
of the Gonds.
City of Light Comic story,
published 2009 Doctor: 10
Featuring Heather
Written by Eddie Robson.
Informed guess Takes place on Luminous, implicitly in humanity’s future.
Night of the Humans Novel,
published 2010 Doctor: 11
Featuring Amy
Written by David Llewellyn.
Takes place on the Gyre (a mere twenty-five light years from Earth);
self-dated 250,339 CE.
The Fate Of The Earth
Earth is currently inhabited, and seems to be doing quite well as a spacefaring
civilisation.
The Lamentation Cipher Audio drama,
released 2014 Doctor:
0
Featuring The Viyrans, Charley
Written by Jonathan Barnes.
Informed guess Takes place in Tellurian space, at a time
when it is casually intergalactic; the location is given as “billions” of light
years from Earth.
The Viyran Solution Audio drama,
released 2014 Doctor:
0
Featuring The Viyrans, Charley
Written by Matt Fitton.
Takes place in Tellurian space, two years after The Lamentation
Cypher.
Panda and the Airship Short story, published 2017 Doctor: 0
Featuring Iris Wildthyme, Faction Paradox, or
possibly Unbound Faction Paradox
Written by John Alice.
Arbitrary placement Takes place wherever the Number 22 has materialised, just after Iris
has regenerated. There is a slight suggestion that Belle is a member of a
Clockworks equivalent to Faction Paradox, rather than the Faction itself, if
indeed there is a distinction that can meaningfully be drawn.
Emissary of the Daleks Audio drama, released
2019 Doctor:
6
Featuring the Daleks, Peri
Written
by Andrew Smith.
Arbitrary placement Takes
place on Omnia.
Space Station Z7 Comic story,
published 1966 Doctor: 1
featuring
Gillian, John
Illustrated ?and written by Bill Mevin.
Arbitrary placement
Takes place on Space
Station Z7.
Doctor Who - Slipback Novelisation of an Audio drama, published 1986 Doctor: 6
featuring
Peri, and the Time Lords (glimpse)
Adapted from his own script by Eric Saward.
Informed guess Takes place on the Vipod Mor, sufficiently
far in the future that Earth is mythically held to be one of only three planets
in Mutter’s Spiral on which civilisation arose.
Pondnium Comic story, published 2012 Doctor: 11
Featuring Amy or an Amy ganger, Rory
Written by Craig Donaghy.
Arbitrary placement Takes place on Pondinium, which is very nearly the title of the story.
Concealed Weapon Audio drama, released
2019 Doctor:
0
Featuring the Master, River Song
Written
by Scott Handcock.
Arbitrary placement Takes
place in space. River Song has been released from prison, and can now travel
through time at will, so this might be taking place at any time.
The Strings Short story, published 2013 Doctor: 0
Featuring Faction Paradox
Written by James Worrad.
Informed guess Takes place on Whubir. The Republic of Sol is a significant
interstellar power, and it is far enough into the future that it is no longer
common knowledge that the Solar System was the original home of Tellurians.
Frank
Herbert’s 1966 novel The Eyes of
Heisenberg take place mostly in the Seattle area an indefinite distance
into the future, but it transpires that the Optimen have been ruling the Earth
in a rigidly unchanging system for eighty thousand years. In Doctor Who
narrative, this is probably the earliest that this can be accommodated.
The Planet of Dust Illustrated short story,
published 1978
Doctor: 4
featuring
Leela
Written by the World Distributors Annual 1979 crew.
Arbitrary placement
Takes place on an unnamed
planet (other than, the planet of dust).
The Eyeless Novel,
published 2008 Doctor: 10
Written by
Lance Parkin.
Takes place on Arcopolis; self-dated 292,009 CE.
