The Eighth Doctor's | == Limiting factors == | ||
Any story with the Doctor's silver sonic screwdriver must take place either between ''Doctor Who'' and ''The Silver Turk'', where it is destroyed. Between ''Sword of Orion'' and ''Natural Regression'', the Doctor uses a wooden sonic. He switches back to his silver sonic screwdriver at some point during the [[Last Great Time War]]. | |||
== Complications == | |||
=== Split continuities === | |||
Following the release of ''Doctor Who'', both ''[[Doctor Who Magazine]]'' and ''[[BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures]]'' took to continuing the Eighth Doctor's adventures in [[1997 (releases)|1997]]; they were joined by [[Big Finish Productions]] in [[2001 (releases)|2001]]. For the most part, each of these storylines should not be interrupted or intertwined: in other words, there are few gaps in each series' storyline where the Doctor could feasibly take a break from one set of companions and to travel with a different set of companions from another series. Both the ''BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures'' books and ''Doctor Who Magazine'' comics advertised themselves as continuing directly from the TV Movie, but only the novels actually portrayed an newly-regenerated Eighth Doctor, with ''Doctor Who Magazine'' instead depicting an Eighth Doctor that was comfortable with his body and personality. For this reason, the most commonly accepted framework is that, after the telemovie, ''BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures'' happened, followed by ''Doctor Who Magazine'', and then continued with Big Finish Productions, who show the development of the Doctor that leads to ''The Night of the Doctor''. | |||
There are very few exceptions to this general rule: | |||
* In the BBC Books novel ''[[Vampire Science (novel)|Vampire Science]]'', companion [[Sam Jones]] mentions that the Doctor once dropped her off at a [[Greenpeace]] rally and had (what he told her was) a year's worth of adventures before picking her up again. ''[[Radio Times]]''{{'}}s comic mini-series with the Eighth Doctor takes place in at least part of this gap, as the events are referenced in ''[[Placebo Effect (novel)|Placebo Effect]]'' a few books later. | |||
* A gap of unknown size takes place between the Eighth Doctor's travels with [[Charlotte Pollard]] in Big Finish's [[Main Range]] and his adventures with [[Lucie Miller]] in the ''[[Eighth Doctor Adventures (audio series)|Eighth Doctor Adventures]]''. | |||
=== Gallifrey === | === Gallifrey === | ||
During the [[War in Heaven]], multiple [[Nine Gallifreys|duplicate Gallifreys]] were created, each believing themselves to be the original. One of these, [[Romana III's Gallifrey]], was destroyed in ''[[The Ancestor Cell (novel)|The Ancestor Cell]]''; anything involving Romana III must therefore take place before ''The Ancestor Cell'' or the reversal of Romana II's regeneration in ''Enemy Lines''. | |||
Alternatively, anything involving Gallifrey could take place either on a different duplicate Gallifrey or sometime after a hypothetical recreation of Romana III's Gallifrey following ''[[The Gallifrey Chronicles (novel)|The Gallifrey Chronicles]]''. However, such a restoration is never mentioned in the comics or audios. | |||

Latest revision as of 12:03, 25 December 2024
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.
This page lists appearances of the Eighth 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, much like its TV story counterparts that for each novel or audio series their published/numbered order is the order they occur in. This does not apply to short stories which are often ambiguous about their placement. There are also many gaps between stories.
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, two Big Finish forums and the Divergent Universe forum. None of these sources should be used solely as a source or considered a "true" timeline for stories.
Limiting factors[[edit source]]
Any story with the Doctor's silver sonic screwdriver must take place either between Doctor Who and The Silver Turk, where it is destroyed. Between Sword of Orion and Natural Regression, the Doctor uses a wooden sonic. He switches back to his silver sonic screwdriver at some point during the Last Great Time War.
Complications[[edit source]]
Split continuities[[edit source]]
Following the release of Doctor Who, both Doctor Who Magazine and BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures took to continuing the Eighth Doctor's adventures in 1997; they were joined by Big Finish Productions in 2001. For the most part, each of these storylines should not be interrupted or intertwined: in other words, there are few gaps in each series' storyline where the Doctor could feasibly take a break from one set of companions and to travel with a different set of companions from another series. Both the BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures books and Doctor Who Magazine comics advertised themselves as continuing directly from the TV Movie, but only the novels actually portrayed an newly-regenerated Eighth Doctor, with Doctor Who Magazine instead depicting an Eighth Doctor that was comfortable with his body and personality. For this reason, the most commonly accepted framework is that, after the telemovie, BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures happened, followed by Doctor Who Magazine, and then continued with Big Finish Productions, who show the development of the Doctor that leads to The Night of the Doctor.
There are very few exceptions to this general rule:
- In the BBC Books novel Vampire Science, companion Sam Jones mentions that the Doctor once dropped her off at a Greenpeace rally and had (what he told her was) a year's worth of adventures before picking her up again. Radio Times's comic mini-series with the Eighth Doctor takes place in at least part of this gap, as the events are referenced in Placebo Effect a few books later.
- A gap of unknown size takes place between the Eighth Doctor's travels with Charlotte Pollard in Big Finish's Main Range and his adventures with Lucie Miller in the Eighth Doctor Adventures.
Gallifrey[[edit source]]
During the War in Heaven, multiple duplicate Gallifreys were created, each believing themselves to be the original. One of these, Romana III's Gallifrey, was destroyed in The Ancestor Cell; anything involving Romana III must therefore take place before The Ancestor Cell or the reversal of Romana II's regeneration in Enemy Lines.
Alternatively, anything involving Gallifrey could take place either on a different duplicate Gallifrey or sometime after a hypothetical recreation of Romana III's Gallifrey following The Gallifrey Chronicles. However, such a restoration is never mentioned in the comics or audios.
Timeline[[edit source]]
- Previous page: Seventh Doctor
New adventures[[edit source]]
- The Doctor regenerates from his previous incarnation in the Walker General Hospital morgue, suffering complete amnesia due the anaesthetic in his system. Seeking aid from Dr. Grace Holloway, the Doctor's memory is restored when Chang Lee opens the Eye of Harmony within his TARDIS for the Bruce Master, only to leave Earth vulnerable to being absorbed into the Eye. The Doctor and Grace steal a beryllium chip from an atomic clock and bring it to the TARDIS in time for a final fight with the Master in the TARDIS' Cloister Room, culminating with the Master falling into the Eye of Harmony after Grace fixes the TARDIS with a temporal orbit. Parting ways with Grace and Lee, the Doctor settles down to read The Time Machine.

With the ship under attack from the Daleks and his TARDIS missing, the Doctor leads a band of survivors, such as Bliss and Quarren and Rupa Maguire, into a Dalek ship to escape, leading directly into Echoes of War.
- The Dalek ship crash lands on to a jungle planet, where the Doctor finds his TARDIS, but the damage done to it has left it non-operational. The Doctor and the survivors are rescued by Cardinal Ollistra, and taken to a Time Lord training camp, leading directly into The Conscript.
- The Doctor's TARDIS is still repairing itself, and is currently unable to travel in time, and he receives a new sonic screwdriver from Ollistra. The Doctor has gained a reputation for his neutrality in the Time War, and learns about Time Lord Conscription for the first time, setting this before All Hands on Deck. Failing to convince the Time Lords to stop the Time War diplomatically, the Doctor is caught in an attack on the training camp by the Daleks, leading directly into One Life.
- Failing to escape the Daleks, the Doctor discovers that the Daleks and the Time Lords have been tracking Quarren Maguire from the Theseus. Before he erases himself from their memories, Quarren leaves Bliss aboard the fully repaired TARDIS with the Doctor. The cover depicts roundels similar to those found in the War Doctor's TARDIS interior and the Victorian parlour sound effects are replaced, suggesting that the TARDIS interior has been reconstructed into the control room used by the War Doctor after being damaged in The Starship of Theseus.
- The Doctor takes Bliss back to her family on her home planet, Derilobia, where he finds that Carvil, a Time Lord soldier, altered the planet's history to have it manufacturing weapons for the Time Lords. After they acquire the coordinates, the Daleks destroy the planet, although the Doctor promises to find a way to restore Derilobia for Bliss, after they are rescued by Major Tamasan.
- The Doctor and Bliss encounter the Twelve while on holiday, and learn that she is now working with the Time Lords, and wants the Doctor's aid to investigate the mystery of an Ogron possessing his DNA and some of his brain patterns. The Doctor, Bliss and the Twelve are captured by the Daleks, leading into In the Garden of Death.
- The Doctor, Bliss and the Twelve are taken to a Dalek prison facility with their memories suppressed, but they manage to escape.
- The Doctor, Bliss and the Twelve return to Gallifrey to collect the Doctor's TARDIS, setting this immediately after In the Garden of Death.
- The Doctor and Bliss have just recovered the TARDIS from the Time Lords, setting this directly after Jonah. While using the TARDIS' telepathic circuits to study Bliss's timeline, the Doctor regains his memories of Sheena. After seeing her biodata fracture around her due to use of a quantum anomaly by Calla, Bliss asks the Doctor to take her someplace she can save to help her cope with her fluxing past, leading directly into The Famished Lands.
- The cover depicts the Doctor using his silver sonic screwdriver. After he and Bliss successfully free the Vale of Iptheus from the restrictions the Time War had put on their supply routes, the Doctor is asked to perform a favour for Tamasan, leading directly into Fugitive in Time.
- Tamasan brings the Doctor and Bliss to Thellian to help her learn how Shonnath survived the deletion of the Helixara.

However, they also discover that the Dalek Time Strategist escaped into another dimension and follow it's path.
- Set immediately after The War Valeyard, with the Doctor and Bliss arriving on Skaro in a parallel universe, where they end up embroiled in the temporal scheme of the Time Strategist and the parallel Davros, who is tricked into becoming a mirror of his missing N-Space counterpart when the Time Strategist merges him with his alternative selves in the multiverse. However, the Doctor and Bliss are able to escape to N-Space by using the fluxing timelines to their advantage, though are unable to stop the Time Strategist from rebuilding a Dalek army.
- Following on from Palindrome, the Doctor and Bliss arrive on Gallifrey, where they stop the Twelve from bargaining her way onto the High Council, but are unable to prevent her escape.
- Set immediately after Dreadshade, with the Doctor trying to leave Gallifrey as they prepare for the Daleks return to N-Space, though Bliss pushes him to become more involved and help those affected by the Time War, starting with the people of Cosca, who are revealed to be in an alliance with the parallel Davros against the Daleks.
