This story/companion's era is considered to be set in the early [[21st century]], and can very likely be narrowed down to the [[2000s]]; however, there is conflicting narrative evidence as to which year ''specifically'' it is set. The writing team for the most part did not place a year in most of [the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' scripts set on contemporary Earth]/[''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]''{{'}} scripts]/[''[[Torchwood (TV series)|Torchwood]]''{{'}}s scripts], but to at least the contemporary television audience, the visual language shows the era is very clearly intended to be <!--[[-->Earth<!--]]--> in the present day. There has been conflicting narrative evidence as to which year and exactly how close to the air date the "present day" stories take place.

''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]'' is noted in several subsequent narratives to have taken place in [[2005]]. Notably, in ''[[The End of the World (TV story)|The End of the World]]'', the [[Ninth Doctor]] describes [[12005]] as ten thousand years into [[Rose Tyler|Rose]]'s future. ''[[Aliens of London (TV story)|Aliens of London]]'', the first story where Rose returns home after her travels, features missing posters for Rose clearly dated <!--6?--> March 2005. In ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]'', the [[Tenth Doctor]] briefly meets Rose on [[1 January]] 2005 before she meets the Ninth Doctor and believes she will have a great year.

Following this, the "contemporary" early 21st century stories relative to Rose Tyler's home era have generally taken place a year after transmission, though few stories explicitly confirm or contradict this. Nonetheless, in the [[2006 (releases)|2006]] episode ''[[Love & Monsters (TV story)|Love & Monsters]]'', [[Elton Pope]] directly describes the events of the [[2005 (releases)|2005]] episode ''Rose'' as "two years ago" and the 2005 Christmas special ''[[The Christmas Invasion (TV story)|The Christmas Invasion]]'' as "[[Christmas]] just gone". In ''[[School Reunion (TV story)|School Reunion]]'', also from 2006, [[Sarah Jane Smith|Sarah Jane]] describes the [[Sycorax]]' [[Sycorax spaceship|ship]] over [[London]] from ''Invasion'' similarly as "Christmas just gone".
