Missing references at least from TV: Time-Flight, The Invasion, Day of the Daleks, Warriors of the Deep, Arc of Infinity, The Twin Dilemma, GAME: Planned Obsolescence' and AUDIO: The Mutant Phase, Energy of the Daleks.

These omissions are so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Check out the discussion page and revision history for further clues about what needs to be updated in this article.

Time zone

A time zone or temporal zone was an area of specific time, utilised primarily as a means of keeping time via clocks. It was also used as a term when discussing time travel to specific destinations.

Time travel

In the war zones created by the War Lords, the Second Doctor and his companions moved from a time zone to another one passing through a mist. The intervention of the Time Lords sent the human prisoners back to their original time zones. (TV: The War Games)

After working together to defeat Omega on behalf of the Time Lords, the first three incarnations of the Doctor were returned to their respective time zones. (TV: The Three Doctors)

The Malus, while creating psychic-projections from the past, was able to directly connect two time zones, allowing Will Chandler to come from the 16th century to the 20th century. (TV: The Awakening)

The Doctor's TARDIS brought the Fifth Doctor "in the right place, but the wrong time zone" when he bumped into an older Brigadier. When on Mawdryn's spaceship, the Doctors said they had a problem about the two different time zones of the two versions of the Brigadier on the ship. (TV: Mawdryn Undead)

The Eternals collected Ephemeral ship crews from different time zones. (TV: Enlightenment)

Upon being activated by Davros, the Hand of Omega travelled to Skaro's time zone (TV: Remembrance of the Daleks) and detonated Skaro's second sun, (PROSE: The Stranger) causing the sun to go nova. (TV: Remembrance of the Daleks)

Bilis Manger claimed to be able to step across eras as one would walk into another room, thus appearing in two time zones at once. (TV: End of Days)

The stones of Stonehenge broadcasted the message about the Pandorica to every time zone. (TV: The Pandorica Opens)

Apalapucia had a two streams facility which enabled visitors dying of Chen-7, the one day plague, to live out their entire lives in the Red Waterfalls time stream, while their loved ones could watch them live in the Green Anchor time stream as it was, as the Eleventh Doctor stated, kinder than watching them die in their bed. It functioned using a temporal engine such that several time streams overlapped enabling thousands to be in the facility at one time. Amy Pond became trapped in the Red Waterfall stream when visiting with the Doctor and Rory Williams. The latter two used the TARDIS to break into her time zone, though they were 38 years late. The time zone eventually collapsed when the aged Amy helped Rory and the Doctor retrieve her younger self, being erased as her timeline ceased to be. (TV: The Girl Who Waited)

River Song hinted the technology in the warehouse where a mysterious phone call to president Nixon started from could have originated in a different time zone. (TV: The Impossible Astronaut)

The Tenth Doctor's TARDIS' desktop theme glitched in the presence of the War Doctor and the Eleventh Doctor, trying to compensate as a reaction to three versions of the Doctor from different time zones. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

When repeatedly teleported in his confession dial, the Twelfth Doctor's ability to feel time travel made him state he should have been in the same time zone he had left, but the pattern of the stars in the sky suggested he had time travelled. (TV: Heaven Sent)

After retrieving the soon-to-be deceased Clara Oswald from Eextraction chamber 7 on Gallifrey, the Doctor incorrectly anticipated that her heartbeat would resume after the TARDIS broke free of Gallifrey's time zone. (TV: Hell Bent)

The Doctor, Missy, Bill and Nardole once visited a colony ship that orbited a black hole. The time dilation it created caused there to be a gradual displacement in the time zones along the ship; the further a floor from the black hole, the faster time passed. As such, by the time 1000 years passed on Floor 1056, only a little over 2 days passed on Floor 0000, (TV: World Enough and Time) and two weeks on Floor 0507 was long enough for the Cybermen on Floor 1056 to evolve into their strongest model. (TV: The Doctor Falls)

On 30 November 1955, the Thirteenth Doctor identified Krasko as not being a native of the current time zone from his Stormcage identifier. She attempted in vain to convince him to let her take him out of the time zone. (TV: Rosa)

Standard time on Earth

In a test run of the ATMOS system preceding the Sontaran invasion of Earth in 2009, 52 humans driving ATMOS-fitted cars were killed at the exact same time in 11 different time zones across the planet, including 5 A.M. in the United Kingdom, 6 A.M. in France, 8 A.M. in Moscow and 1 P.M. in China. (TV: The Sontaran Stratagem)

While speaking with the Eleventh Doctor on the phone, thinking he was a computer technician, Clara Oswald asked if she was phoning a different time zone and if it would have showed up in her bill, since their hours didn't match. (TV: The Bells of Saint John)
