On [[22 January]], [[James Stevens]] began writing ''[[Who Killed Kennedy]]''.

The [[Eleventh Doctor]], having taken the shorter route from 102, seemed to be killed by a [[Stone Dalek]]. [[River Song]] killed it shortly afterward. This was a ruse to sneak past and shoot the Pandorica with the Doctor inside into his exploding [[The Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] to [[Big Bang Two|reboot the universe]] being destroyed by the [[Time Field]].

On [[16 November]], the girl group [[Blood Honeys]] had their "spontaneous" first [[concert]] at the [[Tripod]] [[nightclub]] in [[Dublin]]. Nineteen-year-old [[Donna Noble]], in the city for a [[hen night]], attempted to persuade her friends to go to Tripod, but was unsuccessful. An older Donna, travelling with the [[Tenth Doctor]], asked him to take her to the concert, whereupon they discovered that the [[band]] had come under the influence of three [[psiren]]s who wanted to use them to conquer the [[Earth]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Wannabes (novel)}})
* Fox Television in America began airing trailers for its upcoming broadcast of [[DW]]: ''[[Doctor Who (1996)|Doctor Who]]''. The trailers incorporated special effects footage from episode 1 of the 1986 serial [[DW]]: ''[[The Mysterious Planet]]''.
* [[18 April|18]] - [[NA]]: ''[[Death and Diplomacy]]'' was first published. It was the first appearance of recurring character [[Jason Kane]].
** [[MA]]: ''[[The Eye of the Giant]]'' was first published.
** ''[[Who Killed Kennedy]]'' was first published. This was the only original ''Doctor Who'' novel published by [[Virgin Publishing]] after 1991 not to be considered part of either the [[Virgin New Adventures]] or [[Virgin Missing Adventures]] lines (although it's often lumped in with the MA line as it featured past incarnations of [[The Doctor]]).
* [[24 April|24]] - [[Preston Lockwood]] died.
=== [[May]] ===
On [[17 November]], the Doctor and Donna went to the [[Gresham Hotel]], the site of the Blood Honeys' second concert, to stop the psirens and free the band. [[Celeda Morathine]], who had been doubting the [[Daughters of Khizerax]]'s warring ways, turned on her sisters and helped the Doctor and Donna stop the invasion plan. Donna persuaded the members of the Blood Honeys to continue with their music career. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Wannabes (novel)}})
* [[12 May|12]] - CITV in Edmonton, [[Canada]], was the first broadcaster to air the [[DW]]: ''[[Doctor Who (1996)|Doctor Who]]'' TV movie, two days before its "official" premiere in the US.
* [[14 May|14]] — [[DW]]: ''[[Doctor Who (1996)|Doctor Who]]'' was first broadcast on the [[Fox Broadcasting Company]] in America, marking the return of ''Doctor Who''to the screen. [[Sylvester McCoy]] regenerated into [[Paul McGann]] for McGann's (to date) only on-screen appearance as [[Eighth Doctor|The Doctor]]. The film introduced a new theme music arrangement by [[John Debney]] (the late [[Ron Grainer]] was not credited, however), and reinstated the [[Jon Pertwee]] era logo from [[1970]]-[[1973]]. This logo would replace the [[1987]] series logo as the franchise branding, and continued to be used into [[2009]] to denote "past Doctor"-related products following the [[2005]] series revival. The ratings proved to be a disappointment, and Fox declined to commission a TV series or further movies. Subsequently, issues over rights and licensing prevented the telefilm from being released to home video in North America until 2011, although UK home video release occurred not long after its broadcast there.
* [[16 May|16]] - [[NA]]: ''[[Happy Endings]]'' was first published. Promoted as the fiftieth book in the [[Virgin New Adventures]] line, it featured cameo appearances by many characters from both the TV series and the NA books, and was notable for "outing" [[Mike Yates]]. [[Benny Summerfield]] ceased to be a regular companion with this novel, though she returned in later volumes and ultimately took over the New Adventures line after Virgin lost the ''Doctor Who'' licence.
** [[MA]]: ''[[The Sands of Time]]'' was first published.
** [[REF]]: ''[[A History of the Universe|Doctor Who: A History of the Universe]]'' was first published.
* [[17 May|17]] - ''[[Doctor Who - The Script of the Film]]'' was first published.
* [[20 May|20]] - [[Jon Pertwee]] died from a heart attack in his sleep whilst in Connecticut.
* [[25 May|25]] - The [[Doctor Who (1996)|TV movie]] was promoted on the cover of the ''[[Radio Times]]''.
* [[27 May|27]] - [[DW]]: ''[[Doctor Who (1996)|Doctor Who]]'' was first broadcast on [[BBC1]]. The UK broadcast included some minor edits related to violence, and also included an on-screen dedication to the memory of Jon Pertwee. Unlike the US showing, the UK broadcast was considered a ratings winner, but without US support, the telefilm did not result in a series revival.
* ''[[Doctor Who - The Novel of the Film]]'' was first published. This was the first novelisation of a televised story to not be published by [[Target Books]] or an affiliate. It was the first ''Doctor Who'' novel to be published by [[BBC Books]], and led to the imprint taking over the ''Doctor Who'' fiction licence from [[Virgin Books]] (it was not, however, considered part of the later [[Eighth Doctor Adventures]] line). It was the last novelisation of a televised ''Doctor Who'' story to date, and the last novelisation of any kind until [[WC]]: ''[[Scream of the Shalka (webcast)|Scream of the Shalka]]'' was adapted in 2004.
=== Spring 1996 ===
On [[17 December]], [[the Toymaker]] came to [[Stockbridge]] to get revenge on the Doctor. The villagers were transformed into the Toymaker's puppets. [[Maxwell Edison]] and [[Izzy Sinclair]] were in [[Wells Wood]] at the time and managed to evade the Toymaker's powers.
* Around the time the novelisation of the telefilm was published, a major shake-up occurred in the ''Doctor Who'' publishing world when it was announced that [[BBC Books]] had taken on the licence to publish fiction featuring the Doctor and other BBC-owned characters and concepts from the franchise. [[Virgin Books]], which had been publishing original novels since 1991 and also owned the [[Target Books]] line which dated back to 1973, announced its [[Virgin New Adventures]] and [[Virgin Missing Adventures]] lines would conclude in 1997, after several remaining commissioned novels were published. Virgin, however, also announced it would continue the New Adventures line after that point, focusing on the character of [[Benny Summerfield]].
=== [[June]] ===
On [[19 December]], the [[Eighth Doctor]] came to Stockbridge. He met up with Maxwell and Izzy. The Toymaker brought them to his newly created castle and used the [[Imagineum]] to create a copy of the Doctor. The Doctor was forced to fight the copy to the death, but he talked the copy out of fighting. The Doctor then used the Imagineum on the Toymaker. The Toymaker became caught in a stalemate with his copy and was banished back to where he came from. Afterwards, Izzy began travelling with the Doctor. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Endgame (DWM comic story)}})
* ''Doctor Who'' novel writer [[Jonathan Blum]] wrote and played the [[Seventh Doctor]] in an unofficial video production, ''[[Time Rift (film)|Time Rift]]''.
