In one unique iteration, '''[[the Doctor's TARDIS]]''' featured a console room composed entirely of pieces from various other TARDIS consoles. This console room, rather than having a traditional central console, was a compact space where controls were dispersed across the walls and ceiling. The [[Fifth Doctor]] speculated that this particular TARDIS was a "'''remembered TARDIS'''", a sentiment echoed by the [[Seventh Doctor]], who referred to it as "'''a [[memory]]'''".
}}{{The Doctor's TARDIS counterparts}}
A [[TARDIS]], called a "'''Remembered TARDIS'''" by the [[Fifteenth Doctor]] ([[TV]]: {{cs|Empire of Death}}) and the [[Fifth Doctor]], ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}}) and called a "'''[[Memory]] TARDIS'''" by the [[Seventh Doctor]], ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)}}) was [[memory construct|a physical memory]] of [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] created inside [[UNIT]]'s [[Time Window]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Empire of Death (TV story)}}) It featured a [[TARDIS control room|console room]] composed entirely of pieces from various versions of the Doctor's TARDIS console across their adventures through [[time]] and [[space]]. The console room, rather than having a traditional central console, was a compact space where controls were dispersed across the walls and ceiling. The ship had [[TARDIS exterior (The Ghost Monument)|the same TARDIS exterior used by the Thirteenth to Fifteenth Doctors]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}})
 
== Nature ==
The Remembered TARDIS was created when [[UNIT]]'s [[Time Window]] was used to revisit the abandonment of [[Ruby Sunday]] at the [[Church, Ruby Road|church]] on [[Ruby Road]] on [[Christmas Eve]] in [[2004]]. The [[Fifteenth Doctor]] observed that the projection of [[The Doctor's TARDIS|his TARDIS]] looked "almost solid" and wondered aloud that if "[[time]] is [[memory]], and memory is time, then what is the memory of a time machine". Due to the moment in time being "raw", with the [[Snow (The Church on Ruby Road)|snow]] and [[Carol of the Bells|song]] from that night following the Doctor and Ruby throughout their adventures, as well as the Doctor's memory of what happened that night changing, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Legend of Ruby Sunday (TV story)}}) the remembered TARDIS was able to fully manifest, becoming its own separate vessel - a memory of the Doctor's own TARDIS. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Empire of Death (TV story)}})
 
In order to continue sustaining its own existence, the remembered TARDIS needed to "feed" on [[Story|stories]]. This was deduced by the [[Fifth Doctor]] after he and [[Tegan Jovanka]] found themselves transported there long after Tegan had [[Duplicate Incident|parted ways]] with him. The Doctor quickly figured out the purpose of the remembered TARDIS, explaining that it was a memory which had reached out and remembered the two of them. Tegan called it a "'''gimcrack TARDIS'''", and was initially reluctant to participate in the storytelling process after the Doctor suggested that they should share "the strongest of all the stories" out of all their adventures - that being their [[Cyber-invasion (Earthshock)|confrontation]] with the [[Cybermen]] which resulted in the [[death]] of [[Adric]]. Ultimately, however, Tegan conceded and was willing to do it in Adric's memory. ([[TV]] {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}}) Other Doctors came to similar conclusions as to the nature of the memory TARDIS; the [[Sixth Doctor]] described the remembered TARDIS as housing the stories he and his companions shared, like "ripples on an eternal [[pond]] [that were] forever moving [and] forever repeating", ([[TV]]: {{cs|Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)}}) while the [[Seventh Doctor]] added that the memory TARDIS was "a special place where old friends [could] come together to share stories, to remember, and to confront difficult truths". ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)}})
 
While its nature was understood, the purpose of the TARDIS, however, was uncertain. Tegan hypothesised that the TARDIS was a chance for TARDIS travellers to sit down and think about the ramifications of their adventures, with the Fifth Doctor agreeing that it provided [[therapy]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}}) [[Zoe Heriot]] believed that the TARDIS was responsible for undoing the [[Time Lord]]s' erasure of her and [[Jamie McCrimmon]]'s memories. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Mind Robber (TotT TV story)}}) How the TARDIS operated was also a mystery, such as how the visitors managed to arrive; while Tegan and the Fifth Doctor implied that they appeared in the TARDIS after falling asleep, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}}) [[Ace]] remarked that she had been taken from a business meeting when she appeared in the TARDIS. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)}}) When [[Peri Brown]] appeared before the Sixth Doctor, who had been relaxing with a book in the TARDIS, a distinct sound was heard, indicating she had been teleported in, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)}}) with the same sound being heard when [[Clyde Langer]] left. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Three Doctors (TotT TV story)}})
 
While some Doctors and companions remained on board to use the remembered TARDIS as a standard ship, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)}}, {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)}}) Zoe believed staying in the TARDIS to be a temporary affair, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Mind Robber (TotT TV story)}}) with [[Jo Jones]] implying that the occupants had a measure of control on when they could leave. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Three Doctors (TotT TV story)}})
 
The incarnations of the Doctor preceding the Fifteenth Doctor that arrived in the TARDIS were also older-looking, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Empire of Death (TV story)}}, {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}}, {{cs|Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)}}, {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)}}) with the Seventh Doctor cryptically saying was due to the [[time stream]]s being "all a matter of perspective." ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)}})
 
By one account, this TARDIS was one of several existant [[Memory TARDIS (TARDIS variant)|Memory TARDIS]]es. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|I, TARDIS (novel)}})


== History ==
== History ==
=== Origins ===
=== Escaping the Empire of Death ===
The [[Sixth Doctor]] described the remembered TARDIS as housing the stories he and his companions shared, like "ripples on an eternal [[pond]] [that were] forever moving [and] forever repeating". ([[TV]]: ''[[Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)|Vengeance on Varos]]'') Tegan hypothesised that the TARDIS was a chance for TARDIS travellers to sit down and think about the ramifications of their adventures, with the Fifth Doctor agreeing that it provided [[therapy]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Earthshock (TotT TV story)|Earthshock]]'') [[Zoe Heriot]] believed that the TARDIS was responsible for undoing the [[Time Lord]]s' erasement of her and [[Jamie McCrimmon]]'s memories. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Mind Robber (TotT TV story)|The Mind Robber]]'')
While visiting [[UNIT HQ, City of London|UNIT HQ]], the [[Fifteenth Doctor]] requested use of a [[Time Window]] developed by [[UNIT]] that allowed them to observe historical events in a [[hologram]] projector room. Using the window to revisit the abandonment of his [[companion]], [[Ruby Sunday]], at the [[Church, Ruby Road|church]] on [[Ruby Road]] on [[Christmas Eve]] in [[2004]], the Doctor observed that the projection of [[The Doctor's TARDIS|his TARDIS]] looked "almost solid" and wondered aloud that if "[[time]] is [[memory]], and memory is time, then what is the memory of a time machine".
 
As [[Sutekh]] prepared to give his "gift of death" to [[N-Space|the universe]], wreaking destruction at every point in time and [[space]] simultaneously to create his [[Empire of Death]], ([[TV]]: {{cs|Empire of Death (TV story)}}) the Fifteenth Doctor ordered Ruby to return to the Time Window. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Legend of Ruby Sunday (TV story)}}) There, she would be joined by the Doctor and [[Melanie Bush]], who used the Remembered TARDIS to escape the oncoming apocalypse after the Doctor asked Ruby to remember the TARDIS as much as she could to stabilise its manifestation.
 
With the Doctor's own TARDIS having been taken by Sutekh, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Empire of Death (TV story)}}) the Doctor went on to reflect on his first battle with Sutekh with Ruby inside the remembered TARDIS.  There, the Doctor told Ruby about [[Sarah Jane Smith]], who he fondly remembered as being "amazing", and how she and the [[Fourth Doctor]] fought and defeated Sutekh deep in the [[English]] [[countryside]] in the [[summer]] of [[1911]] - a story he started with [[Marcus Scarman]]'s [[looting]] of the [[Egypt]]ian [[tomb]]s. Concluding his telling, the Doctor confessed his uncertainty as to whether or not he could again defeat Sutekh, who had since [[evolution|evolved]] into a "Titan". ([[TV]]: {{cs|Pyramids of Mars (TotT TV story)}})
 
The Remembered TARDIS would go on to play a vital role in saving the universe, before the Doctor ultimately reclaimed his own original TARDIS back from Sutekh. After leaving it in [[2046]], the Doctor kissed its doors goodbye. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Empire of Death (TV story)}})

After sharing the story of their encounter with the Cybermen and the loss of Adric with Tegan, the Fifth Doctor found that [[Adric's badge]], which had been destroyed in the incident, was intact in his [[hand]] as he and Tegan reflected on their continued travels following his death. The Doctor admitted that he never looked back. At the Doctor's request, Tegan then told him about the life she had led after leaving the Doctor's company. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}})
 
When Jo Jones and Clyde Langer found themselves in the remembered TARDIS, reuniting with each other as they looked through what Langer called "cool [[junk]]", the two recognised their surroundings as resembling the Doctor's TARDIS, but "not so much". After Jo played with the [[Third Doctor's sonic screwdriver]], Clyde noted that the Doctor was not present, but Jo voiced her belief that all the Doctors and their [[companion]]s, including the late [[Sarah Jane Smith]], were with them as the TARDIS "never really [let] go". Having heard of the death of [[Clifford Jones]], Clyde offered his condolences and, at Jo's request, told her about what he, [[Luke Smith]] and [[Rani Chandra]] were doing, with both of them admitting that they missed the "old days". When Clyde asked Jo how many Doctors she knew, Jo told him of [[First Omega Crisis|the time]] she was with three or "two and a bit" Doctors at once.
 
Jo admitted that she missed [[Third Doctor|her Doctor]] just as Clyde missed Sarah Jane. She urged Clyde to tell Rani that he loved her, telling him that people were made of stories and that the two of them would make the most important story just as she had with Cliff. Clyde went off to find Rani whilst Jo remained behind to see what other memories would come to call, assuring Clyde that the TARDIS would show him the way. Following Clyde's departure, Jo found the [[Metebelis crystal]] and reflected on how the Doctor brought her and Cliff together when, to her amazement, Cliff appeared before her. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Three Doctors (TotT TV story)}})
 
== Layout ==
The Remembered TARDIS had a busy layout which could be viewed as having the following areas: the usable floor where visitors could move; the circular shelving which surrounded the room like a wall and had six panels of [[TARDIS control console|TARDIS consoles]]; and the ceiling, which had [[TARDIS console (Planet of Evil)|a full TARDIS console]].
 
Two girders resembling those from [[TARDIS control room (Doctor Who)|the Eighth Doctor's control room]] connected the floor to the ceiling. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}}, etc.)
 
=== Usable floor ===
The Memory TARDIS's flooring had the same general patterns as that of the [[TARDIS control room (The Star Beast)|Fourteenth and Fifteenth Doctor's control room]], but with two additional orange circles of lights. One orange circle was slightly raised in the centre of the room, with the floor's patterning revolving around it; this was where the [[crystal fire]] appeared during reminiscing, resembling a [[campfire]], and more specifically, part of the [[TARDIS control room (The Ghost Monument)|Thirteenth Doctor's TARDIS control room]]. The other orange circle was at the back left of the room.
 
Chairs also appeared when visitors were remembering the past, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}}) with the ship being about to summon chairs from the [[TARDIS control room (The Eleventh Hour)|Eleventh Doctor's first control room]] and the [[TARDIS control room (Rose)|Tenth Doctor's control room]], ([[TV]]: {{cs|Pyramids of Mars (TotT TV story)}}) as well as at least four different armchairs. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Mind Robber (TotT TV story)}}, {{cs|Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)}}, {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)}}) [[Clyde Langer]] found a [[Verron puzzle box]] on the armchair that appeared for him. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Three Doctors (TotT TV story)}})
 
The edges of the floor were filled with objects which were part of the collection of the shelving, with the shelving's first row using the floor as its base. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}}, {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)}})
 
=== Ceiling ===
[[File:Remembered TARDIS ceiling Time Meddler.jpg|thumb|left|The [[TARDIS console (Planet of Evil)|Fourth Doctor's console]] on the ceiling. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Time Meddler (TotT TV story)}})]]
The [[TARDIS console (Planet of Evil)|Fourth Doctor's TARDIS console]] hung from the ceiling, and was capable of being used to control the ship. 
 
Behind the console was a section of ceiling resembling the middle ceiling of [[TARDIS control room (The Star Beast)|the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Doctor's control room]]. Surrounding this section was a strip of lighting roundels from the [[TARDIS control room (Rose)|Ninth and Tenth Doctor's control room]], but they could change colours like those of the former room.
 
A [[bowtie]] and the [[First Doctor's pocket watch]] were hanging from wires on the right side of the ceiling above the panel from [[TARDIS console (An Unearthly Child)|the First Doctor's console]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}}, etc.)
 
=== Shelves ===
{{oou box|This section is arranged with columns listed in clockwise order from the [[TARDIS door]]s and rows listed bottom-to-top, such that "Column 1, Row 1" refers to the lowest shelf to the immediate right of the doors.}}
[[File:Remembered TARDIS interior doors Earthshock.jpg|thumb|right|The interior [[TARDIS door]]s. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}})]]
The Memory TARDIS's wall was a circular shelf which surrounded the room, stretching from one side of the [[TARDIS door]]s to the other.

The first row had the [[TARDIS scanner]] from the [[TARDIS console (The Eleventh Hour)|Eleventh Doctor's first console]] on the floor in front of it. Behind it was the [[Twelfth Doctor's guitar (Hell Bent)|Twelfth Doctor's red guitar]]. Behind this, there was a large red box. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Three Doctors (TotT TV story)}})
 
The third row had a brown [[television]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)}})
 
The fourth row had various pieces of metal technology. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)}})
 
[[File:WHO 1 Mind Robber.jpg|thumb|left|The shelf with [[WHO 1]] on it. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Mind Robber (TotT TV story)}})]]

The third row had a black circle. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)}})
 
The fourth row was obscured by the section from the [[TARDIS console (The Eleventh Hour)|Eleventh Doctor's first console]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Three Doctors (TotT TV story)}})
 
The fifth row had a jar with an object like an insect inside it, as well as a pair of black gloves. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Three Doctors (TotT TV story)}})
 
The sixth row had a black bandana, the [[scanner/typewriter]] from the [[TARDIS console (The Eleventh Hour)|Eleventh Doctor's first console]], and a gramophone cone reminiscent of the one on the Eleventh Doctor's first console. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Three Doctors (TotT TV story)}})
 
==== Console segments centred between Columns 5 and 6 ====
[[File:Remembered TARDIS left wall Three Doctors.jpg|thumb|left|The left wall of the Remembered TARDIS, with the two consoles. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Three Doctors (TotT TV story)}})]]
Centred between the fifth and sixth columns from the door, there were two panels of consoles hanging from the shelf.
 
The lower panel was a segment of [[TARDIS console (The Five Doctors)|the console first used by the Fifth Doctor]].
 
The higher panel was the Helm Panel segment of [[TARDIS console (The Eleventh Hour)|the Eleventh Doctor's first console]], which rested a wider shelf resembling [[TARDIS control room (The Eleventh Hour)|the associated control room]]'s flooring, with a space on the shelf fitted for the screen from the [[Time Window]] to rest. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Empire of Death (TV story)}}) This panel had a drawer that housed the [[Eleventh Doctor's sonic screwdriver]], the [[Second Doctor's sonic screwdriver]], the [[Twelfth Doctor's second sonic screwdriver]], the [[Third Doctor's sonic screwdriver]], the [[Thirteenth Doctor's sonic screwdriver]] and the [[Seventh Doctor's sonic screwdriver]]. It also once gave [[Jo Grant]] a [[Metebelis crystal]]. On the left side of this console was the [[force field generator (The Three Doctors)|force field generator]], complete with [[the Doctor's recorder]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Three Doctors (TotT TV story)|The Three Doctors]]'') [[River Song's sonic screwdriver]] once rested against the left edge of the console.

* With the dialogue in ''Tales of the TARDIS'' referring to this TARDIS as both a "remembered TARDIS" and a "Memory TARDIS", one might take "Memory TARDIS" to be the more proper name (indeed, the scripts for these episode refer to the setting as "INT MEMORY TARDIS"), but [[Russell T Davies]] has referred to it as the "Remembered TARDIS" in the [[DWM 601]] ''[[Letter from the Showrunner]]''.
* The set was altered slightly for its use in [[Empire of Death (TV story)|''Empire of Death'']] and [[Pyramids of Mars (TotT TV story)|''Pyramids of Mars'']]. A notable change was the chairs; in ''[[Tales of the TARDIS]]'', an armchair was used alongside a tall wooden chair, whereas in the latter stories these were switched for chairs which resembled those from the [[TARDIS control room (Rose)|Ninth and Tenth Doctors' TARDIS]]. In ''[[Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)|Vengeance on Varos]]'', a chair was missing and the [[Sixth Doctor]] was sat in a different chair which could spin.
* Russell T. Davies created the Remembered TARDIS for ''Empire of Death'' and then re-used it for ''Tales of the TARDIS'' because he felt the set was so well-realized that it would be a waste to use it in only one story.

Remembered TARDIS
Gallery

A TARDIS, called a "Remembered TARDIS" by the Fifteenth Doctor (TV: Empire of Death [+]Loading...["Empire of Death"]) and the Fifth Doctor, (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TotT TV story)"]) and called a "Memory TARDIS" by the Seventh Doctor, (TV: The Curse of Fenric [+]Loading...["The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)"]) was a physical memory of the Doctor's TARDIS created inside UNIT's Time Window. (TV: Empire of Death [+]Loading...["Empire of Death (TV story)"]) It featured a console room composed entirely of pieces from various versions of the Doctor's TARDIS console across their adventures through time and space. The console room, rather than having a traditional central console, was a compact space where controls were dispersed across the walls and ceiling. The ship had the same TARDIS exterior used by the Thirteenth to Fifteenth Doctors. (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TotT TV story)"])

Nature[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Remembered TARDIS was created when UNIT's Time Window was used to revisit the abandonment of Ruby Sunday at the church on Ruby Road on Christmas Eve in 2004. The Fifteenth Doctor observed that the projection of his TARDIS looked "almost solid" and wondered aloud that if "time is memory, and memory is time, then what is the memory of a time machine". Due to the moment in time being "raw", with the snow and song from that night following the Doctor and Ruby throughout their adventures, as well as the Doctor's memory of what happened that night changing, (TV: The Legend of Ruby Sunday [+]Loading...["The Legend of Ruby Sunday (TV story)"]) the remembered TARDIS was able to fully manifest, becoming its own separate vessel - a memory of the Doctor's own TARDIS. (TV: Empire of Death [+]Loading...["Empire of Death (TV story)"])

In order to continue sustaining its own existence, the remembered TARDIS needed to "feed" on stories. This was deduced by the Fifth Doctor after he and Tegan Jovanka found themselves transported there long after Tegan had parted ways with him. The Doctor quickly figured out the purpose of the remembered TARDIS, explaining that it was a memory which had reached out and remembered the two of them. Tegan called it a "gimcrack TARDIS", and was initially reluctant to participate in the storytelling process after the Doctor suggested that they should share "the strongest of all the stories" out of all their adventures - that being their confrontation with the Cybermen which resulted in the death of Adric. Ultimately, however, Tegan conceded and was willing to do it in Adric's memory. (TV Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TotT TV story)"]) Other Doctors came to similar conclusions as to the nature of the memory TARDIS; the Sixth Doctor described the remembered TARDIS as housing the stories he and his companions shared, like "ripples on an eternal pond [that were] forever moving [and] forever repeating", (TV: Vengeance on Varos [+]Loading...["Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)"]) while the Seventh Doctor added that the memory TARDIS was "a special place where old friends [could] come together to share stories, to remember, and to confront difficult truths". (TV: The Curse of Fenric [+]Loading...["The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)"])

While its nature was understood, the purpose of the TARDIS, however, was uncertain. Tegan hypothesised that the TARDIS was a chance for TARDIS travellers to sit down and think about the ramifications of their adventures, with the Fifth Doctor agreeing that it provided therapy. (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TotT TV story)"]) Zoe Heriot believed that the TARDIS was responsible for undoing the Time Lords' erasure of her and Jamie McCrimmon's memories. (TV: The Mind Robber [+]Loading...["The Mind Robber (TotT TV story)"]) How the TARDIS operated was also a mystery, such as how the visitors managed to arrive; while Tegan and the Fifth Doctor implied that they appeared in the TARDIS after falling asleep, (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TotT TV story)"]) Ace remarked that she had been taken from a business meeting when she appeared in the TARDIS. (TV: The Curse of Fenric [+]Loading...["The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)"]) When Peri Brown appeared before the Sixth Doctor, who had been relaxing with a book in the TARDIS, a distinct sound was heard, indicating she had been teleported in, (TV: Vengeance on Varos [+]Loading...["Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)"]) with the same sound being heard when Clyde Langer left. (TV: The Three Doctors [+]Loading...["The Three Doctors (TotT TV story)"])

While some Doctors and companions remained on board to use the remembered TARDIS as a standard ship, (TV: Vengeance on Varos [+]Loading...["Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)"], The Curse of Fenric [+]Loading...["The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)"]) Zoe believed staying in the TARDIS to be a temporary affair, (TV: The Mind Robber [+]Loading...["The Mind Robber (TotT TV story)"]) with Jo Jones implying that the occupants had a measure of control on when they could leave. (TV: The Three Doctors [+]Loading...["The Three Doctors (TotT TV story)"])

The incarnations of the Doctor preceding the Fifteenth Doctor that arrived in the TARDIS were also older-looking, (TV: Empire of Death [+]Loading...["Empire of Death (TV story)"], Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TotT TV story)"], Vengeance on Varos [+]Loading...["Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)"], The Curse of Fenric [+]Loading...["The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)"]) with the Seventh Doctor cryptically saying was due to the time streams being "all a matter of perspective." (TV: The Curse of Fenric [+]Loading...["The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)"])

By one account, this TARDIS was one of several existant Memory TARDISes. (PROSE: I, TARDIS [+]Loading...["I, TARDIS (novel)"])

History[[edit] | [edit source]]

Escaping the Empire of Death[[edit] | [edit source]]

While visiting UNIT HQ, the Fifteenth Doctor requested use of a Time Window developed by UNIT that allowed them to observe historical events in a hologram projector room. Using the window to revisit the abandonment of his companion, Ruby Sunday, at the church on Ruby Road on Christmas Eve in 2004, the Doctor observed that the projection of his TARDIS looked "almost solid" and wondered aloud that if "time is memory, and memory is time, then what is the memory of a time machine".

As Sutekh prepared to give his "gift of death" to the universe, wreaking destruction at every point in time and space simultaneously to create his Empire of Death, (TV: Empire of Death [+]Loading...["Empire of Death (TV story)"]) the Fifteenth Doctor ordered Ruby to return to the Time Window. (TV: The Legend of Ruby Sunday [+]Loading...["The Legend of Ruby Sunday (TV story)"]) There, she would be joined by the Doctor and Melanie Bush, who used the Remembered TARDIS to escape the oncoming apocalypse after the Doctor asked Ruby to remember the TARDIS as much as she could to stabilise its manifestation.

With the Doctor's own TARDIS having been taken by Sutekh, (TV: Empire of Death [+]Loading...["Empire of Death (TV story)"]) the Doctor went on to reflect on his first battle with Sutekh with Ruby inside the remembered TARDIS. There, the Doctor told Ruby about Sarah Jane Smith, who he fondly remembered as being "amazing", and how she and the Fourth Doctor fought and defeated Sutekh deep in the English countryside in the summer of 1911 - a story he started with Marcus Scarman's looting of the Egyptian tombs. Concluding his telling, the Doctor confessed his uncertainty as to whether or not he could again defeat Sutekh, who had since evolved into a "Titan". (TV: Pyramids of Mars [+]Loading...["Pyramids of Mars (TotT TV story)"])

The Remembered TARDIS would go on to play a vital role in saving the universe, before the Doctor ultimately reclaimed his own original TARDIS back from Sutekh. After leaving it in 2046, the Doctor kissed its doors goodbye. (TV: Empire of Death [+]Loading...["Empire of Death (TV story)"])

Further guests[[edit] | [edit source]]

This section's awfully stubby.

Info from The Mind Robber, Vengeance on Varos, The Time Meddler and The Curse of Fenric needs to be added

After sharing the story of their encounter with the Cybermen and the loss of Adric with Tegan, the Fifth Doctor found that Adric's badge, which had been destroyed in the incident, was intact in his hand as he and Tegan reflected on their continued travels following his death. The Doctor admitted that he never looked back. At the Doctor's request, Tegan then told him about the life she had led after leaving the Doctor's company. (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TotT TV story)"])

When Jo Jones and Clyde Langer found themselves in the remembered TARDIS, reuniting with each other as they looked through what Langer called "cool junk", the two recognised their surroundings as resembling the Doctor's TARDIS, but "not so much". After Jo played with the Third Doctor's sonic screwdriver, Clyde noted that the Doctor was not present, but Jo voiced her belief that all the Doctors and their companions, including the late Sarah Jane Smith, were with them as the TARDIS "never really [let] go". Having heard of the death of Clifford Jones, Clyde offered his condolences and, at Jo's request, told her about what he, Luke Smith and Rani Chandra were doing, with both of them admitting that they missed the "old days". When Clyde asked Jo how many Doctors she knew, Jo told him of the time she was with three or "two and a bit" Doctors at once.

Jo admitted that she missed her Doctor just as Clyde missed Sarah Jane. She urged Clyde to tell Rani that he loved her, telling him that people were made of stories and that the two of them would make the most important story just as she had with Cliff. Clyde went off to find Rani whilst Jo remained behind to see what other memories would come to call, assuring Clyde that the TARDIS would show him the way. Following Clyde's departure, Jo found the Metebelis crystal and reflected on how the Doctor brought her and Cliff together when, to her amazement, Cliff appeared before her.

Layout[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Remembered TARDIS had a busy layout which could be viewed as having the following areas: the usable floor where visitors could move; the circular shelving which surrounded the room like a wall and had six panels of TARDIS consoles; and the ceiling, which had a full TARDIS console.

Two girders resembling those from the Eighth Doctor's control room connected the floor to the ceiling. (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TotT TV story)"], etc.)

Usable floor[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Memory TARDIS's flooring had the same general patterns as that of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Doctor's control room, but with two additional orange circles of lights. One orange circle was slightly raised in the centre of the room, with the floor's patterning revolving around it; this was where the crystal fire appeared during reminiscing, resembling a campfire, and more specifically, part of the Thirteenth Doctor's TARDIS control room. The other orange circle was at the back left of the room.

Chairs also appeared when visitors were remembering the past, (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TotT TV story)"]) with the ship being about to summon chairs from the Eleventh Doctor's first control room and the Tenth Doctor's control room, (TV: Pyramids of Mars [+]Loading...["Pyramids of Mars (TotT TV story)"]) as well as at least four different armchairs. (TV: The Mind Robber [+]Loading...["The Mind Robber (TotT TV story)"], Vengeance on Varos [+]Loading...["Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story)"], The Curse of Fenric [+]Loading...["The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)"]) Clyde Langer found a Verron puzzle box on the armchair that appeared for him. (TV: The Three Doctors [+]Loading...["The Three Doctors (TotT TV story)"])

The edges of the floor were filled with objects which were part of the collection of the shelving, with the shelving's first row using the floor as its base. (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TotT TV story)"], The Curse of Fenric [+]Loading...["The Curse of Fenric (TotT TV story)"])

Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]

  • With the dialogue in Tales of the TARDIS referring to this TARDIS as both a "remembered TARDIS" and a "Memory TARDIS", one might take "Memory TARDIS" to be the more proper name (indeed, the scripts for these episode refer to the setting as "INT MEMORY TARDIS"), but Russell T Davies has referred to it as the "Remembered TARDIS" in the DWM 601 Letter from the Showrunner.
  • The set was altered slightly for its use in Empire of Death and Pyramids of Mars. A notable change was the chairs; in Tales of the TARDIS, an armchair was used alongside a tall wooden chair, whereas in the latter stories these were switched for chairs which resembled those from the Ninth and Tenth Doctors' TARDIS. In Vengeance on Varos, a chair was missing and the Sixth Doctor was sat in a different chair which could spin.
  • Russell T. Davies created the Remembered TARDIS for Empire of Death and then re-used it for Tales of the TARDIS because he felt the set was so well-realized that it would be a waste to use it in only one story.
