The Worshipful and Ancient Law of Gallifrey was a book that was once stored in the Panopticon Archive on Gallifrey. It was also the 'key' to Shada the Time Lord's prison planet, when the pages were turned within a TARDIS it would take the craft to Shada. (DW: Shada, WC: Shada)
The text of the book is written in ancient Gallifreyan and reads largely as gibberish though the book itself has several remarkable features:
- It absorbs radiation
- It has no atomic structure
- Time runs backwards over it
- It is impervious to damage
- It cannot be spectrographically analysed
Removal from Gallifrey and subsequent use
It was stolen from Gallifrey by Salyavin, who subsequently requested that the Doctor return it to Gallifrey for him. Following this meeting it was stolen by Skagra, who used it and the Doctor's TARDIS to travel to Shada. (DW: Shada, WC: Shada)
