"Zog" was a colloquialism Donna Noble once employed to indicate to the Tenth Doctor that she was referring to "a hypothetical planet". (DW: The Unicorn and the Wasp)
Behind the scenes

- In The End of Time, Jack visits an unnamed bar in an unnamed city on an unnamed planet. Though the episode as televised leaves the audience clueless as to the identity of these places, the script and online commentary were more forthcoming.
