Alternative timeline
- In an alternative timeline, the Allied leaders met in a secret bunker underneath Washington, D.C.. With no common enemy to fight, relations between the Soviets, Americans and British broke down. The centre of the debate was the Ironsides. Neither Stalin nor Truman were keen to allow such powerful weapons to be the property of the British Army alone, but the Ironsides' insistence that under no circumstances would they relocate from the United Kingdom left Churchill with no choice but to agree to their destruction. (DWAN: Doctor Who The Official Annual 2011)
