Over the subsequent three years, Jericho travelled across the world with Yaz and Dan in search of information regarding [[the Flux]]. After a chance meeting with [[Joseph Williamson]], their travels eventually brought them back to England ([[TV]]: ''[[Survivors of the Flux (TV story)|Survivors of the Flux]]'') in [[1905]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Eve of the Daleks (TV story)|Eve of the Daleks]]'') Upon arriving in [[Liverpool]], the three explored the [[Williamson Tunnels]] where they encountered Williamson once again. Williamson showed them the purpose of the tunnels: to allow him to guard doorways to multiple different points in time and space. Jericho and the others later fell victim to a [[Sontaran]] attack.

The group retreated through the tunnels, travelling to [[5 December]], [[2021]]. Here, he reunited with the Doctor and accompanied her back to 1967 to recruit Claire into the Sontaran resistance. Jericho and Claire were selected by the Doctor to act as spies within a Sontaran ship, as the Sontarans' [[Psychic Command]] required a [[human]] psychic to send a message to their foes, the [[Dalek]]s and [[Cyberman|Cybermen]]. Eventually, Claire managed to escape, unintentionally leaving Jericho behind. | The group retreated through the tunnels, travelling to [[5 December]], [[2021]].
