The '''Sydney Harbour Bridge''' was an iconic part of the [[Sydney]] skyline. From many vantage points, it could be glimpsed alongside the [[Sydney Opera House]]. | The '''Sydney Harbour Bridge''' was an iconic part of the [[Sydney]] skyline.

In the [[1970s]], the bridge was destroyed by the [[Dalek]]s, who had launched missiles from stolen nuclear [[submarine]]s. The Daleks attacked Sydney with the hope of turning it into a base from which to take over the rest of [[Earth|the world]]. Since they carried out the attack by sub, they would have to sail into the Harbour to make their landing. This required that they sail their submarine underneath the remains of the bridge — where the [[Third Doctor]] and Lt [[Davis (*Sub Zero)|Davis]] had a trap in store for them. As the submarine passed underneath, Davis sent down an electrically-charged cable to the deck, which killed all the Daleks.

On [[1 January]] [[2000]], the [[Thirteenth Doctor]], [[Graham O'Brien|Graham]], [[Yasmin Khan|Yaz]] and [[Ryan Sinclair|Ryan]] watched the [[New Year's Day]] [[fireworks]] from on top of Sydney Harbour Bridge. This was Ryan's favourite [[New Year's Eve]], out of the twenty [[Team TARDIS]] visited in succession.

By [[2009]], the bridge had apparently been rebuilt, as a news report showed fireworks being launched over Sydney Harbour Bridge in celebration of the [[Earth]]'s return to its normal place in space.

In [[2010]], a [[chronal wave]] brought a large number of [[dinosaur]]s into modern times on the Sydney Harbour Bridge, where they attacked fleeing [[human]]s and fought each other. Later, when another chronal wave froze Sydney in ice from the [[Ice Age]], the Harbour Bridge was frozen and badly damaged, and the dinosaurs on it froze to death.
