If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.
This page lists appearances of the Ninth Doctor in the order in which he 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 or television series, their published, broadcast or numbered order is the order they occur in.
Fan sources like the Doctor Who Reference Guide should not be used solely as a source or considered a "true" timeline for stories.
Limiting factors
Any story featuring Rose Tyler must be after TV: The End of the World. Any story featuring Captain Jack Harkness must be after TV: The Doctor Dances.
Series basics
The Ninth Doctor's non-TV stories tie directly into the television series continuity, which concludes with the same companion he started with onscreen, Rose Tyler. Hence, he has no adventures with companions original-to-audio or comics, and he has a lone one-off prose companion — Ali — in a setting immediately before his travels with Rose. His era can be roughly be divided into adventures with the original to television companions:
- Rose Tyler
- Rose and Captain Jack Harkness
