The '''London Borough of Barnet''' was a part of [[London]] somewhat proximate to [[Heathrow Airport]]. A lay-by on the [[Barnet Bypass]] was the site of one of the last remaining [[police box]]es in England. [[Vanessa (Logopolis)|Tegan's aunt]]'s car once broke down there in [[1981]], within a few yards of what appeared to be the aforementioned police box but was in fact [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] — which itself had materialised around [[the Master's TARDIS]]. [[The Watcher (Logopolis)|The Watcher]] first appeared to the [[Fourth Doctor]] in this borough, as well. ([[TV]]: ''[[Logopolis (TV story)|Logopolis]]'') | |||
[[Chad Boyle]] and his family moved to Barnet before he reached Seniors. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Timewyrm: Revelation (novel)|Timewyrm: Revelation]]'') | |||
In [[2009]], [[Colin Stretton]] lived in Barnet, at [[41 Clement Street]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Partners in Crime (TV story)|Partners in Crime]]'') | |||

* This location was established by a sign immediately to the left of the TARDIS, which read <small>PLEASE TAKE YOUR LITTER HOME</small>. Unfortunately, in the finished programme, the sign is right next to a litter bin — therefore begging the question as to what the bin is supposed to be used for... | |||
* In real life, though not established in ''Doctor Who'' fiction, the airport is some 34 miles north-northwest of central High Barnet, the major conurbation of the borough. High Barnet is also some 15 miles north of [[Ealing]], the setting of ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]'', and Ealing is separated from Barnet by only one borough, Brent. | |||
