Index → Timey-wimey detector → Timeline - Seventh 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 Seventh 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. None of these sources should be used solely as a source or considered a "true" timeline for stories.

Additionally there are statements on the back many BBC Past Doctor Adventures novels that state between which TV stories the novel takes place between. These can be used to narrow the field, and should be viewed as the only placing for these novels.

Limiting factors

Limiting factors for the Seventh Doctor's timeline placement are based on which companions he is travelling with at the time. However there are also several instances when the Doctor travels alone, these can often be placed in the latter part of his regeneration as they represent a more sombre character for the Doctor.

Any stories featuring Melanie Bush must take place between DW: Time and the Rani and Dragonfire.

Any stories involving a younger Ace must take place from DW: Dragonfire to NA: Love and War. Any story featuring a battle-knowledgeable Ace must take place between NA: Deceit and Set Piece.

Any stories where he travels with Bernice Summerfield must take place between NA: Love and War and Happy Endings.

Any story featuring Roz Forrester must take place between NA: Original Sin and So Vile a Sin. Any story featuring Chris Cwej must take place between NA: Original Sin and Lungbarrow.

Any story featuring Hex must take place after BFA: The Harvest.

There are however some issues with using these stories alone to define story placement as some companions (such as Ace) have contradictory departure stories. Ace departs travelling the with the Doctor in NA: Set Piece and is apparently killed in DWM: Ground Zero.
