Index → Timey-wimey detector → Timeline - Fifth 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 Fifth Doctor in the order in which he experienced them. This timeline is based on observations of the Doctor Who universe and the events in each of these stories. From these observations we have attempted to build a concise timeline. It is assumed, much like their TV story counterparts, that each novel or audio series their published/numbered order is the order they occur in[statement unclear]. There are also many gaps between stories.

The layout of this timeline is based in part on the observations on Doctor Who Reference Guide and Doctor Who - The Complete Adventures, 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.

Limiting factors

Companions

Any story with Adric must take place before DW: Earthshock. Any story with Nyssa must take place before DW: Terminus or after BFA: Cobwebs. Any story with Tegan Jovanka must take place before DW: Resurrection of the Daleks. Any story with Turlough must take place after DW: Mawdryn Undead and before DW: Planet of Fire. Any story with Peri Brown must take place after DW: Planet of Fire.
