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 Fifteenth Doctor in the order in which they 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 that for each novel, comic, audio or television series, their published, broadcast or numbered order is the order they occur in.

The layout of this timeline is in part based on the observations on Doctor Who - The Complete Adventures, as well as Lance Parkin's AHistory and other sources that allow us to make observations, such as Doctor Who Reviews, and Clive Banks databanks. None of these sources should be used solely as a source or considered a "true" timeline for stories.

Limiting factors

The short story First Day of the Doctor [+]Loading...["First Day of the Doctor (short story)"] features a piece of the first page from the Fifteenth Doctor's diary, in which it can be seen that he wrote about the events of The Giggle [+]Loading...["The Giggle (TV story)"] and The Church on Ruby Road [+]Loading...["The Church on Ruby Road (TV story)"] as the first adventures he experienced, leaving little to place in the gap between the two television episodes.

A fresh start

The Fifteenth Doctor is spawned from the Fourteenth Doctor when the Toymaker triggers a bi-generation, co-existing with his previous self as a result. As his prize for helping defeating the Toymaker in a game of catch the ball, the Fifteenth Doctor uses the Toymaker's lingering influence on the universe to seemingly duplicate the TARDIS as well, so he can resume his travels whilst the Fourteenth Doctor enters "rehab" on Earth with the Noble family to allow himself to heal from the various traumas he had endured in his travels.
The Doctor decides on his new attire. Although never explicitly stated to be the fifteenth incarnation, the Doctor is given a physical description that coincidentally matches that of Ncuti Gatwa, and has a chest containing items owned by each known incarnation par the War Doctor, including a handbag presumably owned by the female incarnation from The Death List, thus implicating setting the poem's incarnation to be the one that follows her, with authorial intent being that The Death List featured the then upcoming Thirteenth Doctor.[1] Furthermore, Contents ends with the Doctor choosing to wear sturdy boots and a new hat, items of clothing featured in the Fifteenth Doctor in promotional material for Series 14.
The Doctor thinks ahead to the new adventures and friends he will have with his "new face", as well as the "pantheon" of enemies he will face, setting this shortly after The Giggle.

Adventures with Ruby

The Doctor is joined on his travels by Ruby Sunday after they stop the Goblin King eating Ruby's foster sister in December 2023.
The Doctor writes in his diary about the events of The Giggle and The Church on Ruby Road, implying that the two adventures happen in close proximity to each other.
The Doctor takes Ruby on a trip to 2424 Manchester. She encounters teleportation for the first time, suggesting a setting early in her travels.
The Doctor and Ruby travel to Wonder Central and the Deep Space Zone. The Doctor and Ruby are wearing their outfits from The Church on Ruby Road, suggesting a setting shortly after.

The Doctor is impatient about an adventure that will happen in three days time.
The Fifteenth Doctor meets Rose Noble.

Currently unplaced

These entries are placed here either due to being part of ongoing storylines that have yet to offer sufficient enough evidence to be placed in a specific part of this Doctor's timeline, unless further evidence arises in the stories to come, or due to being released early in this Doctor's tenure, and not having sufficient enough evidence to be placed in any chapter of this Doctor's run.

Solo adventures

The Fifteenth Doctor[2] attempts to help the Eleventh Doctor save Nora Wicker from a time bubble with his sonic screwdriver, but she stops them.
The Doctor's TARDIS, now painted pink, is seen on the bank of the River Thames in the 2020s.
  • PROSE: Rose [+]Loading...{"ed":"2023 Illustrated Edition","1":"Rose (novelisation)"}
The Doctor is photographed sometime prior to 5 March 2005.
The Doctor materialises his TARDIS in Wolf Studios and confronts Jason Quinn, Richard Atkinson and Mike Jones. Given the meta-fictional nature of the story, such as the inclusion of the then-current total number of issues of Doctor Who Magazine, this story is likely set near the events of Mancopolis.

Awaiting placement

These entries are placed here until a suitable position in the timeline can be determined based on the available evidence.
The Doctor arrives in 2023 with an unnamed companion, presumably Ruby. After he gets separated from his companion, he defeats the Spikemaster, and proposes taking his companion to Cardiff when they reunite.
The Doctor goes on Match of the Day in the future. Potentially follows Wonder Chase, as the Doctor would have met Gary Lineker at Wonder Central.
  • TV: Untitled [+]Loading...{"noital":"1","1":"Untitled 1 (May 2024 TV story)","2":"Untitled"}
The Doctor does a continuity announcement for BBC One, likely around the same time as his appearance on Match of the Day.
