History[[edit] | [edit source]]

Tegan Jovanka was born in Brisbane on 22 September 1960. (AUDIO: The Gathering) When Nyssa defined a Zero Room as an "isolated space, cut off from the rest of the universe," Tegan joked that this essentially described Brisbane. (TV: Castrovalva) Following her departure from the TARDIS in London in 1984, Tegan returned to Brisbane, where she was still living in 2006. (TV: Resurrection of the Daleks, AUDIO: The Gathering)

In 2008, John Dixon's father lived in Brisbane. (AUDIO: Cuddlesome)

Brisbane was among the world's major cities where forces of flying Cybermen emerged led by Missy. Taking to the skies, they created a cloud of cyber-pollen above the city. These pollen clouds would then rain upon the graves, recruiting the dead of the Earth into a new Cyberman army. When control of the Cyberman army went to the hands of the recently-converted Danny Pink, he ordered all Cybermen to return to the skies and self-destruct, taking the pollen clouds with them in their combined explosions. (TV: Death in Heaven)

In the 51st century, Magnus Greel's massacre of approximately a hundred thousand earned him the nickname "Butcher of Brisbane." (TV: The Talons of Weng-Chiang) During this era, it was known as the Brisbane Dead Zone due to the fact that it was filled with the corpses of the hundreds killed during Zygma energy experiments.
