[[River Song]] was known to have loved this version of the room, ([[GAME]]: ''[[The Eternity Clock (video game)|The Eternity Clock]]'') while [[Charley Pollard]] and the [[Fourth Doctor]] found it in poor taste. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Stones of Venice (audio story)|The Stones of Venice]]'', ''[[The Light at the End (audio story)|The Light at the End]]'') After later consoles, the Eighth Doctor would later restore or copy this console.

==== Origin ==== | |||
Accounts differed over how and why this version of the control room was created or came in use. Although the [[Eighth Doctor]] claimed that it was the [[#Second control room|"second" control room]] (in actuality the intended primary control room) after a spot of remodeling, many accounts suggested that it was physically the same room as the white control room used by previous incarnations of the Doctor, but had been altered for a variety of conflicting reasons. | |||
* An early version was already being used by the [[Seventh Doctor]] in the [[The Doctor's TARDIS (Blood Heat)|alternate universe TARDIS]] when he was given [[Wolsey]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Human Nature (novel)|Human Nature]]'') | |||
* The TARDIS herself changed the room after being trapped inside the Doctor's family estate, the [[House of Lungbarrow]]. It rebuilt itself to resemble the house after the Doctor temporarily severed the link between the interior and exterior to prevent his family stealing the ship. After he had restored the TARDIS, the console room retained this homier design ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Lungbarrow (novel)|Lungbarrow]]'') | |||
* The Doctor, [[Ace]] and [[Hex]] did some "redecorating" of the TARDIS. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Settling (audio story)|The Settling]]'') The Doctor's original TARDIS' console room would briefly revert back to its previous design after it dematerialised from the pocket dimension he had used to imprison the [[Elder God]]s [[Albert Marsden|Albert]] and [[Peggy Marsden|Peggy]], leaving Ace and Hex behind, while his newly grown "Black TARDIS" used its "mother"'s Victorian configuration up until its eventual destruction. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Black and White (audio story)|Black and White]]'') Following this, the TARDIS console room was restored to its Victorian layout, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Gods and Monsters (audio story)|Gods and Monsters]]'') being briefly changed to a white configuration after [[To'Koth]] used it to return to the home dimension of the [[Elder God]]s, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Signs and Wonders (audio story)|Signs and Wonders]]'') before reverting to the Victorian layout. ([[AUDIO]]: [[Fiesta of the Damned (audio story)|''Fiesta of the Damned'']]) | |||
* The Doctor — and not the TARDIS – had simply "built" it. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Excelis Decays (audio story)|Excelis Decays]]'') | |||

According to companion [[Will Arrowsmith]], this console room was not "proper Victorian" but "pseudovictorian" and apparently heavily inspired by [[H. G. Wells]]' story ''[[The Time Machine]]'', though based more upon the movie adaptation rather than the novel itself.
