Arthur's World was a mythic-seeming alternate Earth with both advanced technology and magic.

History

On this Earth, King Arthur was a historical British king and not merely a shadowy figure of myth. It produced several exceptional sorcerers (or users of advanced psychic powers).

Arthur ruled here before his overthrow (and probable killing) by Morgaine and her son, Mordred. Morgaine imprisoned Merlin, a version of the Doctor himself, leaving the knight Ancelyn, loyal to Arthur, and others to survive. Ancelyn knew of TARDISes and recognized the Doctor's seventh incarnation, though not by his face. The Doctor theorized that one of his future incarnations would move to Arthur's world. This incarnation left a note for him. (DW: Battlefield)

The Doctor had, however, earlier met another version of Merlin.

Other information

  • Arthur's world was accessible from the Doctor's universe, though possibly only if a certain ritual is performed linking the two worlds. The exit point in the main timeline is located in Carbury near Lake Vortigern, in rural England.
