Stand well clear, Jo!

This topic might have a better name.

Either Memory TARDIS, as it's been called that in publicity material, and it's explicitly called such in dialogue by McCoy, or Remembered TARDIS as that is also said in dialogue by Davison and used in publicity material. Perhaps "Memory TARDIS" could be a generic page for this special model of TARDIS.

Talk about it here.

This article needs a big cleanup.

We need some citations. Literally, there's none. T:CITE

These problems might be so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Talk about it here or check the revision history or Manual of Style for more information.

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".

History

Origins

How the TARDIS operated was a mystery, such as how the victors managed to arrive; while Tegan Jovanka and the Fifth Doctor implied that they appeared in the TARDIS after falling asleep, (TV: Earthshock) Ace remarked that she had been taken from a business meeting when she appeared in the TARDIS. (TV: The Curse of Fenric)

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)

The incarnations of the Doctor that arrived in the TARDIS were also older looking, (TV: Earthshock, Vengeance on Varos, The Curse of Fenric) with the Seventh Doctor cryptically satying was due to the time streams being "all a matter of perspective." (TV: The Curse of Fenric)

(TV: Earthshock)

(TV: The Curse of Fenric)

Appearance

The exterior of the TARDIS resembled a police box, with the same colouring as that of the Thirteenth Doctor's TARDIS exterior.

The TARDIS interior features a cluttered collection of various other TARDIS control consoles, such as a segment of the First and Second Doctor's console, a segment of the Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Doctor's console, the metal girders from the Eighth Doctor's console room, a segment of the War Doctor's console, some coral "roundels" from the Ninth and Tenth Doctor's console room, a segment of the Eleventh Doctor's first console, a segment of the Twelfth Doctor's console, some hexagonal "roundels" from the Thirteenth Doctor's console room, and the Third and Fourth Doctor's console in the ceiling. When stories were told, a miniature version of the Thirteenth Doctor's console rested on the floor between chairs, resembling a campfire, as the stories were played on a black and white 4:3 television. (TV: Earthshock)

Amongst the clutter in the TARDIS included a fez, a hobby horse, the helmet of Sanctuary Base 6 space suit, an "Out of Order" sign, Adric's badge, (TV: Earthshock)



and a hatstand that housed Ace's baseball bat, the Sixth Doctor's coat, the Fifth Doctor's panama hat, (TV: Earthshock)

  • Various sonic screwdrivers, including the Second Doctor's, the Third Doctor's, the War Doctor's, the Eleventh Doctor's, the Twelfth Doctor's, and the Thirteenth Doctor's, contained within a drawer in the segment of the Eleventh Doctor's first console
