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 Charley Pollard in the order in which she 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, much like its TV story counterparts that for each novel or audio series their published/numbered order is the order they occur in. This does not apply to short stories which are often ambiguous about their placement. There are also many gaps between stories.

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

Timeline

Travels with the Eighth Doctor

A broken Web of Time

Landing on the doomed airship R101, the Doctor violates the Laws of Time by saving the life of stowaway Charley Pollard, and takes her aboard the TARDIS as his new companion. The TARDIS has its Victorian parlour interior design.
The Doctor is traveling with Charley, but she is at a disco during this adventure. Seeing as they are not spending Christmas together, it seems likely that this story is set early on in their travels, when their relationship is not as close as it later becomes.
Charley has only been travelling with the Doctor for a few days.

"Sam" is listed as one of the Doctor's former companions by Gideon Crane, either referencing Samantha Jones or Samson Griffin.
Charley still has the black eye and bruises she acquired in Minuet in Hell.
Authorial intent places this "sometime during the second series of Charlotte Pollard Eighth Doctor adventures". Charley does not know about regeneration.
The Doctor learns that Orson Welles is ignorant of William Shakespeare's identity, that there are forty-nine states in the USA, and that the CIA are active in 1947. The Doctor decides to take Charley to Singapore.

Charley seems comfortable with the Doctor's methods, placing this closer to Neverland.
The Doctor uncovers the cause of the time disruptions from Invaders from Mars, Seasons of Fear and The Time of the Daleks, and discovers why there were Type 70 TARDISes in the Time Vortex during Embrace the Darkness; Charley has become a portal into a world of anti-time, causing cracks in the Web of Time. Ending leads directly into Zagreus.
Fighting off an infection of Anti-Time, the Doctor is exiled to the Divergent Universe by Romana, with Charley following him. Rassilon leaves the Matrix, setting this after The Final Chapter.

During a fight with the Cybermen, the Doctor is separated from Charley when the TARDIS' HADS are activated in a collapsing Cyber-ship.

While under the guise of Charley, Mila has already been travelling with the Doctor for some time before she is killed. In order to preserve future events, Charley has the Viyrans edit the Doctor's memory so that his memories of his time with her are replaced with the memory of Mila, as well as a more peaceful departure for her in place of her death.
