The Fourteenth Doctor gained a new TARDIS control room during his early existence, which was also used by the Fifteenth Doctor.

It was very spacious, sported controllable coloured lights, and had a pristine hexagonal console. The Fifteenth Doctor's version of the room added a jukebox.

Layout

The interior was a curved room with roundels and multiple walkways dominating the area, leading to various pathways into the TARDIS corridors. The roundels provided most of the light in the room, and could change colour from white to orange, green, purple or blue. Similar to the interiors used by the Eleventh and Twelfth Doctors, the TARDIS had multiple levels, accessed by ramps, and many doors leading deeper into the ship. The console was in the centre of the room, and appeared to be a mix of built-in controls and spare parts.

The time rotor once again connected to the ceiling, and contained an intricate internal mechanism, with a blue light inside that rose while the ship was in flight. (TV: The Star Beast [+]Loading...["The Star Beast (TV story)"]) The TARDIS scanner had returned to being a screen, albeit smaller than previous scanners, attached to the console via an arm that could rotate around the console, and had several buttons included. (TV: Wild Blue Yonder [+]Loading...["Wild Blue Yonder (TV story)"])

This control room also had a wheelchair ramp that folded out from the bottom of the TARDIS doors, making this control room wheelchair-accessible.

History

Following his adventure with Donna Noble and Beep the Meep, the Fourteenth Doctor returned to the TARDIS to find the interior had changed, much to his delight. (TV: The Star Beast [+]Loading...["The Star Beast (TV story)"])

This control room was temporarily destroyed when Donna Noble accidentally spilled coffee on the console, causing the Doctor to complain that he'd liked the new design. When the Doctor triggered the TARDIS to regenerate from the damage, it simply repaired the console room, (TV: The Star Beast [+]Loading...["The Star Beast (TV story)"], Wild Blue Yonder [+]Loading...["Wild Blue Yonder (TV story)"]) rather than replacing it like the TARDIS did after regenerating from the Tenth and Twelfth Doctor's regenerations.

The Fifteenth Doctor in his TARDIS’ control room. (TV: The Giggle [+]Loading...["The Giggle (TV story)"])

After the Fourteenth Doctor's bi-generation, the Fifteenth Doctor used the last remnants of the Toymaker’s power to duplicate the TARDIS. The control rooms of both TARDISes were identical save the Fifteenth Doctor’s one including a jukebox, which surprised the Fourteenth Doctor and the addition of a wheelchair ramp that folded out from the bottom of the TARDIS doors. Before departing on his adventures, the Fifteenth Doctor changed the roundels’ colour to orange. (TV: The Giggle [+]Loading...["The Giggle (TV story)"]) When Ruby Sunday came aboard for the first time, the interior appeared white again.
