The Doctor and Rose fall back into a familiar pattern adventuring at first, but when Rose discovers that she's not the first companion that The Doctor has had, there begins to be some tension. The Doctor and Rose wind up in another universe at the advent of a technological menace - the [[Cyberman|Cybermen]]. But this universe happens to be one where Rose's father is still alive. Ultimately, however, she resolves to continue adventuring with The Doctor, and they return to their own universe. Not long after, they find themselves caught in the crossfire between two warring enemies. The Cybermen have followed them through the void between worlds, and a small group of Daleks hid themselves and a Dalek prison ship in that same void, opening cracks just enough for the Cybermen to get through. The Doctor and Rose, with help from the resistance movement from the other universe, devise a plan to force all of the combatants back to the void. But because Rose and The Doctor have traveled through it, they too are at risk, and need to be in a safe location. Ultimately, Rose slips, but is saved by her father from the other world before the opening between the two universes is closed permanently. | The Doctor and Rose fall back into a familiar pattern adventuring at first, but when Rose discovers that she's not the first companion that The Doctor has had, there begins to be some tension.

The Doctor is alone yet again, and finds himself somewhat lonely. In a series of coincidences, he bumps into the bride from before, [[Donna Noble]], played by [[Catherine Tate]]. He invites her to come with him, to see the stars. She readily accepts, having only temporary jobs and her marriage falling through. One notable adventure places the two of them in a library spanning an entire planet, where The Doctor meets a mysterious woman, [[River Song]], who seems to know him in great detail, even though he's never met her before. Ultimately, she sacrifices herself in order to save his life, and the life of everyone else on the planet. Not too long after, the pair return to where Earth should be, but find that it has vanished, along with 26 other planets. They attempt to track it down, but are unable to do so. Meanwhile, on Earth, many of the people that have been impacted by The Doctor, including Martha and Rose, who has managed to find her way back from the other universe, are organizing to resist the Daleks, who are the ones who have abducted the Earth. Ultimately they manage to get a signal out to The Doctor and he manages to land on Earth. When he arrives, he sees Rose, and due to his distraction a Dalek shoots him. He begins to regenerate, but he forces the regeneration energy into his hand that was cut off years ago, halting the process. The Daleks abduct the TARDIS with The Doctor and his friends inside, taking them to a space station where they're monitoring everything. The Doctor and company, sans Donna, leave the TARDIS, and learn that the plan is to use these planets to power a machine to wipe out all of reality. The Daleks shunt off the TARDIS to be destroyed, and Donna manages to trigger the latent regeneration energy in the hand, causing a human version of [[Meta-Crisis Doctor|The Doctor]] to grow from it. The pair escape from destruction, and manage to return to the space station. The Daleks manage to stop this new Doctor as well, but don't account for the fact that Donna has gained some of The Doctor's memories as well, and she manages to halt the detonation, sending all the planets back to their proper place. However, the human Doctor causes all of the Daleks to self destruct, disappointing The Doctor, and causing him to place both his human clone and Rose back in the parallel universe. Donna's brain, ultimately, buckles under the strain from having part of The Doctor's mind imprinted on it, and The Doctor decides to wipe her memory, leaving him alone yet again. Not long after he will sacrifice himself to save Donna's grandfather from dying from radiation poisoning. | The Doctor is alone yet again, and finds himself somewhat lonely.

Not too long later, Amy and Rory, after celebrating their honeymoon in space, settle into married life and receive vague letters with a time and location. Upon arriving in Utah on that date, they find both River and The Doctor present, reminiscing about their shared adventures. Not too long after, as the group has a picnic by a lake, an astronaut rises from water and strikes The Doctor dead. The other three head to a nearby diner where they find The Doctor earlier in his own timeline. The group travels to 1969, not long before the moon landing, and encounter a young girl in an astronaut suit, manipulated by [[Silent|menacing figures in suits]] who leave the memory when not being seen. These figures are forced to leave Earth by the group, and they continue to have adventures. Throughout these, Amy is unsure as to whether or not she is pregnant. She thinks she is at first, but then doesn't, and the TARDIS scanner cycles back and forth on the issue. This is explained when it's shown that Amy was kidnapped by those figures in suits some time before, replacing her with a duplicate. They're part of the same [[The Silence|organization]] that blew up his TARDIS and wish to use her baby as a weapon. The Doctor assembles a coalition of allies and storms their base, attempting to rescue the two. He does so, but the baby was once again a duplicate, and has been spirited away to be raised by this organization. Not long after The Doctor finds Amy and Rory's child, fully grown as an assassin trained to kill him, River Song. Upon meeting him for the first time she has a change of heart, and defects. Nevertheless, that same organization kidnaps her once more, and forces her into a mechanized astronaut suit, forcing her to kill The Doctor. The Doctor, however, prepared for this, and used the entire situation as a way to fake his own death due to his ever expanding reputation. | Not too long later, Amy and Rory, after celebrating their honeymoon in space, settle into married life and receive vague letters with a time and location.

Years later, The Doctor finds himself lecturing at [[St Luke's University]], and notices a young woman who audits a class of his without being enrolled, [[Bill Potts]], played by [[Pearl Mackie]]. He offers to tutor her, and she finds herself drawn into his world slowly but surely. The Doctor, for his part, has been guarding a vault with [[Nardole]], played by [[Matt Lucas]], and uses trips with Bill as an excuse to travel discretely off world, shirking his duty. In the end it's revealed that the vault contains Missy, and The Doctor has sworn to guard her for one hundred years, slowly trying to reform her, little by little. She finally accompanies Bill, Nardole, and The Doctor on a test run - an adventure on a colony ship, and everything goes wrong. Another [[Saxon Master|incarnation]] of The Master is present, as are Cybermen, and while Bill ultimately manages to make it off the ship the group is on, Missy and her earlier self wound each other lethally, and The Doctor forces himself to the brink of regeneration saving the colonists. He insists, however, back inside his TARDIS, that he won't change again. He's done becoming someone else, and just wants it to end. His TARDIS takes him back to meet his [[First Doctor|first incarnation]] who's wrestling with much the same dilemma. Eventually, they both decide to take one step more. And The Doctor regenerates into the [[Thirteenth Doctor]], played by [[Jodie Whittaker]]. | Years later, The Doctor finds himself lecturing at [[St Luke's University]], and notices a young woman who audits a class of his without being enrolled, [[Bill Potts]], played by [[Pearl Mackie]].

They continue with their travels, fighting [[Spy Master|a new incarnation of the Master]], robotic postmen and [[Judoon]]. The Master reveals to the Doctor that he has destroyed Gallifrey once more, and the Doctor discovers that this is true. Heartbroken, the Doctor nonetheless continues on her travels, and she meets an earlier incarnation of herself, one she has no memory of, and one who has no memory of her. This mysterious incarnation, known retroactively as the [[Fugitive Doctor]], works for shadowy organisation [[Division]], but has run away and become a human on Earth. The Thirteenth Doctor helps her escape from Division, and carries on her way across the universe. Later, she comes across a lone Cyberman by the name of [[Ashad]]. She manages to temporarily defeat him, but must now face of hundreds of Cybermen in an epic battle. Alone with the last of humanity, she must battle the Cybermen and the Master, who had allied himself with the Cybermen. The Master takes her aside to Gallifrey and reveals to her that she is, in fact, no Time Lord, and that everything that she has ever been told about the Time Lords is a lie. She was discovered by a wormhole by the early Time Lords, and from her biology they discovered the secret to regeneration. This was the reason that there Master has destroyed Gallifrey. This was the explanation for the mysterious earlier incarnation of herself. This was a very contentious and controversial retcon alongside Doctor Who fans, who are mostly idiots. The Doctor manages to save her companions and the rest of the universe from the Cybermen, but is captured by the Judoon and trapped in prison. | They continue with their travels, fighting [[Spy Master|a new incarnation of the Master]], robotic postmen and [[Judoon]].
