Revision as of 15:27, 19 January 2019
This page lists appearances of the Eighth Doctor in the order in which he experienced them. This timeline is based upon observations of the Doctor Who universe and the events that occur during each of these stories. From these observations we have attempted to build a concise timeline. It is assumed, much like its TV story counterparts that for each novel or audio series their published/numbered order is the order they occur in. This does not apply to short stories which are often ambiguous about their placement. There are also many gaps between stories.
The layout of this timeline is in part based on the observations on Doctor Who Reference Guide and Doctor Who - The Complete Adventures, as well as Lance Parkin's AHistory and other sources that allow us to make observations, such as The Whoniverse, Doctor Who Reviews, Doc Oho's Book Reviews, The History of Doctor Who, The Discontinuity Guide, Clive Banks databanks, Whopix, two Big Finish forums and the Divergent Universe forum. None of these sources should be used solely as a source or considered a "true" timeline for stories.
Limiting factors
Sonic screwdriver
Any story where the Doctor uses his silver Sonic Screwdriver must take place either between Doctor Who and The Flood, where it is destroyed, or after Natural Regression and before The Night of the Doctor if the story takes place during the Time War. Any story where the Doctor is using the wooden handled screwdriver must take place after The Flood and up to Natural Regression.
Complications
Split continuities
Following the release of Doctor Who, both Doctor Who Magazine and BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures took to continuing the Eighth Doctor's adventures in 1997, to be joined by Big Finish Productions in 2001. Logically, each company storyline would follow one anther, or at least be contained separately. However, the BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures debut novel, The Eight Doctors, follows immediately on from the telemovie, while Doctor Who Magazine depicts a stable Eighth Doctor in fiction, even though he was advertised at the time as being newly regenerated. As such, it is easiest to believe that, after the telemovie, BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures happened, followed by Doctor Who Magazine, and then continued with Big Finish Productions, who show the development of the Doctor that leads to The Night of the Doctor.
Radio Times published a comic mini-series before Doctor Who Magazine, and the Virgin New Adventures concluded with The Dying Days before The Eight Doctors was released, both can be placed in a three year time-gap presented in Vampire Science.
Gallifrey
Anything involving Gallifrey must take place either before PROSE: The Ancestor Cell (when Gallifrey is destroyed the first time related to the War); additionally, anything involving Romana II, must take place before PROSE: The Shadows of Avalon (as this is the first novel to feature Romana's third incarnation). This causes issues with the books -> comics -> audios approach, since Romana II still appears in The Apocalypse Element, Neverland, and Zagreus. These cannot fit in the Vampire Science gap, since the Doctor mentions Sam as his companion in Minuet in Hell. However, there is also a period when the Doctor is traveling alone between Interference and The Blue Angel.
Alternatively, anything involving Gallifrey could take place sometime after The Gallifrey Chronicles, after a hypothetical restoration of Gallifrey as predicted in the prophecy. However, such a restoration is never mentioned in the comics or audios.
Timeline
New adventures
- The Doctor regenerates from his previous incarnation, but suffers complete amnesia. Seeking aid from Dr. Grace Holloway, the Doctor is able to recover his memory during a final fight with the Bruce Master, who is absorbed into the TARDIS through the Eye of Harmony. After parting ways with Grace, the Doctor settles down to read The Time Machine.
- Continues directly on from Doctor Who, with the Doctor completing his reading of The Time Machine. After a second bout with amnesia, the Doctor rescues a 16-year-old girl named Sam Jones from being attacked by drug dealers, and welcomes her company in his travels.
- Sam takes her first trip in the TARDIS.
- The Doctor is still adjusting to his new personality.
- The Doctor spends five months in Spain repenting for the actions of his previous incarnation.
- The Doctor mentions that he is new to his body.
- The Doctor mentions that he is still new to his body.
- The Doctor and Sam kill a vampire in 1976 San Francisco with the help of Carolyn McConnell, and leave a hypercube with her, should any vampires return.
- Shortly after The Eight Doctors, the Doctor leaves Sam at a Greenpeace rally, intending to pick her up after a few hours, during which time he has plenty of adventures of his own. All stories where the Doctor is still adjusting to his new body and persona must take place during this period.
Visiting Old Friends
- The Doctor meets up with Bernice Summerfield and the Brigadier for the first time since his regeneration. He gives Wolsey to Bernice so that she can watch over him, and also the Seventh Doctor's umbrella.
- Mention is made of The Dying Days. The Doctor believes that Time Lords would never enslave their TARDISes, setting this before The Shadows of Avalon.
- The Doctor subconsciously goes to protect Grace from Adam Mitchell, but fails, leading directly into Endgame. The fact that he singles out Grace suggests that the Doctor has yet to build up a large resume of companions.
- The Doctor joins with his other incarnations to rescue Grace from Adam and the Tremas Master, and assists the other Doctors in saving their companions as well.
- The Doctor meets up with Joseph Liebermann in Salt Lake City.
Stacy and Ssard

- The Doctor and Stacey befriend an Ice Warrior named Ssard while investigating the treachery of High Lord Artix and Luass.
- After helping them on Mars, Ssard accepts an offer from the Doctor to travel with him and Stacey.
- Stacy and Ssard eventually left the TARDIS and decided to live in Ssard's time period. (PROSE: Placebo Effect)
Fight against the Threshold
- The TARDIS is shown to have its Victorian parlour interior design. On a return visit to Stockbridge, the Doctor is reunited with Maxwell Edison and meets Izzy, a seventeen-year-old science fiction fan and amateur paranormal investigator. After they help him defeat the Celestial Toymaker, he offers them companionship; Max declines, but Izzy gleefully accepts.
- On Izzy's first trip into the future, the Doctor follows an SOS to the Keep, where he is forced by Marquez to bond with Crivello's Cauldron so it can be sent off to form a new star system.
- The TARDIS is still recovering from the events of A Life of Matter and Death. Lured to Crivello's Cauldron at Icarus Falling, the Doctor and Izzy discover that Marquez was working for the Daleks, and become embroiled in the Threshold's plot to destroy the Daleks to acquire the secrets of a box with the Seal of Rassilon on it. During his endeavour, the Doctor's link to the Cauldron is severed.
- The Doctor and Izzy are summoned by Fey to an island in the Indian Ocean during 1939, where the Doctor injects himself with poison to defeat a Cucurbite, forcing Fey and Izzy to take him to Gallifrey, leading into The Final Chapter.
- Whilst his body heals on Gallifrey, the Doctor ventures into the Matrix, where he learns from Rassilon why he hired the Threshold. The Doctor also catches up with Shayde, leading into Wormwood.
- Having switched places with Shayde, the Doctor goes undercover in the Threshold, witnessing their destruction by the Pariah. Shayde is injured in the battle, but is saved from death when Fey bonds with him, becoming a singular entity, and returns to Gallifrey.
Controller of the Glory

Landing on Paradost, the Doctor, Izzy and Kroton find Sato Katsura leading the Church of the Glorious Dead, and in the services of the Master in his bid to win the contest with the Doctor for the Glory, however, it eventually transpires that the contest is really between Sato and Kroton, with Kroton emerging the winning. With the power of the Glory, Kroton kills Sato, and undoes the Master's recent atrocities before placing him in imprisonment, which is presumably the Eye of Harmony, because Forgotten presents him escaping from the Eye of Harmony.
Final adventures with Izzy
- On Ophidius, the Doctor's green frockcoat is destroyed, and Izzy has her body switched with Destrii, who is apparently disintegrated before they can switch back.
- While Izzy deals with the fallout of the events of Ophidius, the Doctor replaces his destroyed frockcoat with a blue jacket.
- Izzy is kidnapped by Destrii's pursuers, leading into Uroboros.
