Theory:Timeline - 22nd century
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.
This page lists the order of stories in the Doctor Who Universe timeline from 1 January 2100 to 31 December 2199 in Earth's Gregorian calendar. (For the purposes of this timeline, 2000 will be considered part of the 21st century given the "Year 0" discrepancy.)
The layout of this timeline is in part based on the observations on Doctor Who - The Complete Adventures, as well as Lance Parkin's AHistory and other sources that allow us to make observations, such as Doctor Who Reviews, Clive Banks databanks, and LegoK9's timeline. None of these sources should be used solely as a source or considered a "true" timeline for stories.
