The [[Seventh Doctor]] often cited this effect ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Dark Flame (audio story)|The Dark Flame]]''), describing butterflies as a "million multi-coloured pieces of time" and being called himself "the butterfly." ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Fearmonger]]'') According to one account, he described the butterfly effect to [[Ingiger]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Curse of Fenric (novelisation)|The Curse of Fenric]]'') He later realised that, like that theoretical butterfly, his interference in [[Earth]]'s history had resulted in [[Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart]] learning who he was and discovering time travel. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Transit]]'') [[Ace]] told [[Sesehset]] about the butterfly effect while in [[Egypt]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Set Piece]]'') After a game of [[chess]] with [[Oskar Steinmann]], the Doctor described the butterfly effect to him. Steinmann thought the solution would be to kill all the butterflies, or make them flap their wings only when ordered. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Just War (novel)|Just War]]'')

The [[Eighth Doctor]] confused the theory a several times, mentioning how a [[bat]] flaps its wings and causes a tropical storm ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Invaders from Mars]]'') and how the beat of a butterfly's wings in [[Mettula Orionsis]] caused a [[time storm]] in the [[Mutter's Spiral]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Storm Warning (audio story)|Storm Warning]]'')

[[Martha Jones]] recognised this theory from its appearances in Earth [[film]]s, and was concerned about whether or not it was safe to "move around and stuff" in her past, recalling that "You step on a butterfly, you change the future of the [[human]] race." The [[Tenth Doctor]] advised her "don't step on any butterflies", and asked her, "What have butterflies ever done to you?" ([[TV]]: ''[[The Shakespeare Code (TV story)|The Shakespeare Code]]'')
