Throughout '''1999''', much concern was raised on [[Earth]] over a feared [[computer]] glitch known as Y2K or the Millennium Bug. This had the potential to cause technological havoc as clocks changed from 1999 to 2000 (the "00" in the date being expected to cause problems for many computer systems).

Throughout 1999, much concern was raised on Earth over a feared computer glitch known as Y2K or the Millennium Bug. This had the potential to cause technological havoc as clocks changed from 1999 to 2000 (the "00" in the date being expected to cause problems for many computer systems). The concern ended up being unfounded, though not without some help from one, or possibly two incarnations of the Doctor. (PROSE: Millennium Shock)
