This page lists '''appearances of the [[Tenth Doctor]] in the order in which he experienced them'''. This timeline is based upon observations of the [[Doctor Who universe|''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, anthology, comic, audio or television series, their published, broadcast or numbered order is the order they occur in.


Fan sources like the Doctor Who Reference Guide should '''not''' be used solely as a source or considered a "true" timeline for stories.  
The layout of this timeline is in part based on the observations on [http://www.drwhoguide.com/who.htm#10TH Doctor Who Reference Guide] and [http://www.eyespider.org.uk/drwho/dt/list.html Doctor Who - The Complete Adventures], as well as Lance Parkin's ''[[AHistory]]'' and other sources that allow us to make observations, such as [http://www.whoniverse.net/biography/timeline10 The Whoniverse], [http://docohobigfinish.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/tenth-doctor.html Doctor Who Reviews], [http://docohosreviews.blogspot.com/p/contents-page.html Doc Oho's Book Reviews], [http://www.doctorwhoreviews.altervista.org/Tenth%20Doctor.htm The History of Doctor Who], [http://www.whoniverse.net/discontinuity The Discontinuity Guide], [http://www.clivebanks.co.uk/ Clive Banks databanks], [https://whopix.wordpress.com/chronology/10th-doctor/ Whopix], and [http://forums.bigfinish.com/threads/6135-The-Tenth-Doctor-s-Timeline the Big Finish forums].

== Series basics ==
:* [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Final Darkness (short story)|The Final Darkness]]''
There are two notable divisions in the varying Tenth Doctor media, those where he is almost constantly travelling with a companion and those, set after his hearts were broken by all his losses in [[TV]]: ''[[Journey's End (TV story)|Journey's End]]'', where he spends most of the time travelling alone.
:: Set during the events of ''The Christmas Invasion'', showing the events from the Sycorax's perspective.


The era while he constantly travels with someone can be further divided into adventures with original to television companions:
:: (<u>REFERENCE</u>)
* [[Rose Tyler]]
:: ''Shortly after Christmas dinner with the Tylers and Mickey, the Doctor goes to join the celebration in [[Trafalgar Square]], where a photograph of him is taken by [[Ursula Blake]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Love & Monsters (TV story)|Love & Monsters]]'')''
* Rose and [[Mickey Smith]]
* Rose (again)<ref>There are clear signs of Rose travelling alone before and after Mickey, notably mentioning events of [[TV]]: ''[[Tooth and Claw (TV story)|Tooth and Claw]]'' in [[TV]]: ''[[School Reunion (TV story)|School Reunion]]'' and references to Mickey staying on [[Pete's World]] in [[TV]]: ''[[Love & Monsters (TV story)|Love & Monsters]]'' and ''[[Army of Ghosts (TV story)|Army of Ghosts]]'' / ''[[Doomsday (TV story)|Doomsday]]''.</ref>

{{SourceFilterEnd}}

* [[Gabby Gonzalez]]


His adventures with Matthew and Emily are said to take place towards the end of his time alone. The Doctor's refusal to take on companions such as [[Christina de Souza]] along after Donna makes the placement of Heather, Wolfgang and Gabby's travels with him, which span over 50 stories, uncertain.

After all, the TARDIS being the TARDIS, he could have taken him away to see another world, another time, and still been able to bring him back in time for dinner. No, he decided. He had done the right thing. Besides, he liked his own company. There was nothing wrong with travelling alone. No one to answer to, nobody to nag him or question him. He quite liked it, in fact. Couldn't be happier. It was just that the TARDIS could seem a very empty place sometimes.

Index → Timey-wimey detector → Timeline - Tenth Doctor
Spoilers are strongly policed here.
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.

This page lists appearances of the Tenth 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, anthology, comic, audio 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[[edit source]]

Any story with Rose Tyler travelling must be after TV: The Christmas Invasion and before TV: Army of Ghosts. Any story with Martha Jones travelling must be after TV: Smith and Jones and before TV: Utopia. Any story with Donna Noble must be after TV: Partners in Crime and before TV: Turn Left.

Though multiple stories that predate TV: Journey's End feature the Doctor travelling alone, TV: Smith and Jones and TV: Partners in Crime both strongly imply that it hasn't been long since the Doctor travelled with Rose and Martha respectively.

Quotes[[edit source]]

  1. ↑ MICKEY: "It's a spaceship. Brilliant! I got a spaceship on my first go."
  2. ↑ ROSE-THE-CAT: "I hope you at least said the 'L' word to her while she was still around..."
    DOCTOR: "'Lilith'?! Now look here, Rose! She only broke one of my hearts and that was completely different!!"
  3. ↑ DONNA: "Still on your own?"
    DOCTOR: "Yup. Well, no. I had this friend. Martha she was called. Martha Jones. She was brilliant."
  4. ↑ "I'd normally, um, offer to give you a little trip somewhere. As a kind of thank you. But at the moment, I'm... sort of experimenting with... travelling alone." He scratched his ear awkwardly, swivelled on one heel and looked at a point just beyond her head. "Seeing how it works out." He swallowed uncomfortably. "You know. Easy come, easy go, and all that."
  5. ↑ No one else was around to tell him not to. He sighed again. One day, he would meet someone to share his travels with him – he always did eventually. He'd had a peculiar feeling for some time recently that change was coming, he was sure of it, he could feel something lurking in his near future, something big, terrible and yet inevitable... The Doctor shook his head. No point moping about things that hadn't happened yet. The future – his future – was a blank book. He had no way of knowing what it held for him; what monsters he might fight, what evil he might encounter, what worlds he might see, but he did know one thing... it would be an adventure!
  6. ↑ He thought about what Jake had asked him, or at least very nearly asked him, and wondered whether he had made the right decision. After all, the TARDIS being the TARDIS, he could have taken him away to see another world, another time, and still been able to bring him back in time for dinner. No, he decided. He had done the right thing. Besides, he liked his own company. There was nothing wrong with travelling alone. No one to answer to, nobody to nag him or question him. He quite liked it, in fact. Couldn't be happier. It was just that the TARDIS could seem a very empty place sometimes. Empty and very quiet.
  7. ↑ The neck was longer than the last time he'd encountered them, some 800 years in Earth's future, and the tail much longer, with a forked tip. Very much the traditional representation of the Devil in this period. How apt.
  8. ↑ Not for the first time, the Doctor felt incredibly alone. He longed for someone like Martha or Donna, someone who would understand, someone who could help. He thought of Stella, and a deep sense of grief suddenly washed over him. She would have understood. She would have helped.
  9. ↑ "OK," said the Doctor, stepping back from the controls. "Just as I promised. Back the moment we left." June felt cold, watching the controls, not wanting it to be over. "Can't I stay?" she asked in a quiet voice. "You'll miss your train home," he told her, nodding at the rucksack parked under a chair. "And there are people waiting to see you." She nodded, reaching for the bag that contained so much of her old, real life.
  10. ↑ "Or I could give you a lift." She looked him up and down. "Straight home to Birmingham. No detours." "Scout's honour." "No answering distress signals? Nothing dangerous or mad?" "Of course not," he said. And then he smiled at her. His dark eyes twinkled with mischief. Laughing, June followed him inside.
  11. ↑ He needed to get back to the TARDIS. He turned, wanting companionship, more than anything, but there was no one beside him.
  12. ↑ DOCTOR: "Anyway. Better get going. Emer wants to find out what it's like to live, so I promised I'd show her around the universe."
  13. ↑ DOCTOR: "No, because someone told me just recently. They said I was going to die. They said he will knock four times."
  14. ↑ Last time he had met the Krillitanes in this time period, they were frying school chips in their oil.
