This page lists appearances of the Ninth Doctor in the order in which he experienced them. This timeline is based upon observations of the Doctor Who universe and the events that occur during each of these stories. From these observations we have attempted to build a concise timeline. It is assumed that for each novel, comic or television series, their published, broadcast or numbered order is the order they occur in.

The layout of this timeline is in part based on the observations on Doctor Who Reference Guide and Doctor Who - The Complete Adventures, as well as Lance Parkin's AHistory and other sources that allow us to make observations, such as The Whoniverse, Doctor Who Reviews, Doc Oho's Book Reviews, The History of Doctor Who, The Discontinuity Guide, Clive Banks databanks, Whopix, and the Big Finish forums. None of these sources should be used solely as a source or considered a "true" timeline for stories.

Limiting factors

Any story featuring Callen Lennox and Doyle must take place between AUDIO: Red Darkness and AUDIO: The Green Gift.

Any story featuring Rose Tyler must be after TV: The End of the World, while stories featuring Captain Jack Harkness must be after TV: The Doctor Dances.

Likewise, any story featuring Adam Mitchell must take place between TV: Dalek and TV: The Long Game, and any story with Tara Mishra traveling alongside Rose and Jack must come after COMIC: Official Secrets, while any story with Tara that Jack is not present for must take place between COMIC: Slaver's Song and COMIC: Secret Agent Man.
