'''1965''' was a [[year]].


At some point in '''1965''', the [[British government]] was contacted by an [[alien]] race dubbed [[the 456]]. They demanded a dozen children in exchange for an anti-virus to an [[influenza]] outbreak that would otherwise killed millions. [[Jack Harkness]] of the [[Torchwood Institute]] was ordered to deliver a busload of children from an orphanage in [[Scotland]]. One child, [[Clem McDonald]], escaped and ended up on the run, destined to spend the next forty-five years in asylums. With the children delivered, the anti-virus was provided and the flu outbreak was quelled. ([[TV]]: ''[[Children of Earth: Day One]]'', ''[[Children of Earth: Day Four]]'')

In an alternate timeline in which Nazi Germany won World War II as a result of the Seventh Doctor and Ace accidentally leaving laser technology in Colditz Castle in October 1944, Elizabeth Klein travelled back in time to Colditz during that incident using the Doctor's TARDIS.
