Dateline (series)

Dateline – originally Dateline 2065, then Dateline 2066, Dateline 2067, Dateline '69, 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 2065, 2066, 2067, and 2069, 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 settings of Astra, first mentioned in The Rescue, or Unity City, first mentioned in Duel of the Daleks, and Nikita Bandranaik.
