Dateline (series)
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Dateline – originally Dateline 2066, then Dateline 2088 and Dateline 2089 – was a series of short stories published in TV Century 21 and Action 21. The stories were written as articles in real-world periodicals published in 2066 or 2088 and 2089. Set in the shared universe of Gerry Anderson's supermarionation television series, several of these stories were crossovers with the Doctor Who universe through the setting of Astra, first mentioned in The Rescue, and Nikita Bandranaik.
