After settling down on Earth, the Fourteenth Doctor bought a home, for himself and for the Noble family to frequently visit, although they still lived in their home in London.
The house seemingly also existed in Earth-33⅓.
Location[[edit] | [edit source]]
The house was located in the countryside, seemingly not too far from London, in the middle of "rolling fields and green hills". It was also near a pond, an estate agency, Scout Hut and a fire station. (PROSE: The Giggle [+]Loading...["The Giggle (novelisation)"]) In Earth-33⅓, it was near a newsagent's. (COMIC: The Continuing Adventures of Doctor no. 14 [+]Loading...["The Continuing Adventures of Doctor no. 14 (comic story)"])
Appearance[[edit] | [edit source]]
Interior[[edit] | [edit source]]
It specifically had a corridor, which pleased the Fourteenth Doctor. It also had a Sun Room on the ground floor, which Wilfred Mott was given, and an en suite. (PROSE: The Giggle [+]Loading...["The Giggle (novelisation)"])
Exterior[[edit] | [edit source]]
The house had a white exterior. The conservatory lead into the garden. Outside, it had a roofed patio, many potted trees, tables and chairs, (TV: The Giggle [+]Loading...["The Giggle (TV story)"]) and a greenhouse. The Fourteenth Doctor thought it looked "happy". (PROSE: The Giggle [+]Loading...["The Giggle (novelisation)"])
History[[edit] | [edit source]]
Before the Fourteenth Doctor, people spent their entire lives in the home, which left ghosts of past lives there, seemingly literally.
After the Giggle in November 2023,[nb 1] the Doctor sought a place to call home, initially considering a castle, mansion or a beach hut. He later found a countryside house in an advert, meeting with Tiff at a pond before travelling back to the estate agency while discussing the purchase. The house connected with the Doctor profoundly due to the lives that had been lived there and the amenities being to the Doctor's liking.
He attempted to purchase the home for £60, but Tiff informed him of the house's true cost. He soon discovered that UNIT actually had been paying him for his years of service, so he was able to purchase the house with ease; Tiff gave him the keys whilst skipping over complications such as the council tax, parking zones, catchment areas, mortgage and forms, earning her the nickname "Just This Once Tiff" from her co-workers.
The Noble family, whom he adopted as his own, stayed with him often, with Wilfred Mott using the Sun Room. Sylvia often made teas for the Scout Hut. There was also an incident with a toaster, and the fire station asked the Doctor to not attempt cooking again. The Doctor occasionally spent time in the greenhouse, seemingly laughing at jokes told by the house's ghosts. (PROSE: The Giggle [+]Loading...["The Giggle (novelisation)"])
One day, the Fourteenth Doctor had a garden party with the Nobles and Melanie Bush, who claimed to have arrived late on a Zingo, entertaining them with stories about his adventures. As he told Donna Noble, the Doctor was the happiest he had been in his entire life at that exact moment. (TV: The Giggle [+]Loading...["The Giggle (TV story)"])
Other realities[[edit] | [edit source]]
In Earth-33⅓, the Fourteenth Doctor bought a newspaper from a newsagent's, before reading it in his home. He then pottered around his garden. (COMIC: The Continuing Adventures of Doctor no. 14 [+]Loading...["The Continuing Adventures of Doctor no. 14 (comic story)"])
Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Technically, the Fourteenth Doctor's home was first seen in The Star Beast [+]Loading...["The Star Beast (TV story)"], as in the pre-titles scene, a shot of Rose Noble was used from the garden party scene in The Giggle [+]Loading...["The Giggle (TV story)"]. However, given the ambiguity surrounding the scene, it is hard to determine the context the footage plays in-universe.
- While some people online assumed the house in The Giggle [+]Loading...["The Giggle (TV story)"] to be the same house as 23 Bachelor Road, the Nobles' home from The Star Beast [+]Loading...["The Star Beast (TV story)"], the two houses look distinctly different and the novelisation of The Giggle [+]Loading...["The Giggle (novelisation)","the novelisation of ''The Giggle''"] directly clarifies that these are indeed different houses.
