Lancashire

Lancashire was a county in England.

The county included the town of Blackpool, home to both Lucie Miller (AUDIO: Death in Blackpool) and Clara Oswald. (TV: Robot of Sherwood)

History

In the mid-19th century, ten families from Lancashire founded the village of Dinorben. (PROSE: Cat's Cradle: Witch Mark)

In the 1940s, the Eighth Doctor spent some time in Lancashire. (PROSE: Grimm Reality)

In the 1980s, the Seventh Doctor and Bernice Summerfield attended a Laurel and Hardy convention in Ulverston, Lancashire. (PROSE: The Pit)

References

The Eleventh Doctor joked that the star whale's mouth at the heart of Starship UK — which he at the time thought a rubbish dump — might be the spaceship's version of the county. (TV: The Beast Below) While searching the wrecked TARDIS, the Eleventh Doctor used Gregor's Scanner to find Clara based on her Lancashire origins. Later, the scanner picked up that one of the Time Zombies was also from Lancashire, denoting that this was a future version of her. (TV: Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS)

Behind the scenes
