Brief Encounters was an occasional series of new prose fiction stories. The stories appeared throughout Doctor Who Magazine regular issues, issues and later Doctor Who Yearbook from the early to mid-1990s.
Overviews
The series began as vignettes orientated towards character and mood. These tended to star the Seventh Doctor (the current Doctor at the time) and often his companion Ace and often had meetings between characters from different eras of Doctor Who.
In the Yearbooks, the format changed to allow for longer stories with more of an orientation towards plot. A number of stories feature continuity difficult to integrate with the comics and with later canon.
