On [[Xeros]], [[Barbara Wright]] was the first to notice the silence, describing it as "the sort of silence you can almost hear." [[Ian Chesterton]] likened it to that of a [[graveyard]]. The silence was the result of the [[the Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] having jumped a [[time track]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Space Museum (TV story)|The Space Museum]]'')

On a [[Planet (Galaxy 4)|doomed planet]], the [[First Doctor]] was the first to notice silence, which reminded him of Xeros. In this case, the silence was due to the complete lack of [[animal]] life. ([[TV]]: ''[[Galaxy 4 (TV story)|Galaxy 4]]'')

Silence was the cause which [[the Church]] of the [[Papal Mainframe]], led by [[Mother Superious]] [[Tasha Lem]], dedicated itself to at the start of the [[Siege of Trenzalore]], becoming the Church of [[the Silence]]; among their ranks were a [[species]] known as the [[Silent]]s, who served as confessional priests. The Church was reformed as such to ensure that the [[Eleventh Doctor]] would not speak [[The Doctor's name|his name]] and thus answer [[the Question]] sent by the [[Time Lord]]s from the [[crack in time]] on the [[planet]] [[Trenzalore]]; were he to do so, the Time Lords would return to [[N-Space|the universe]], resulting in a new [[Time War]] with the [[Dalek]]s and the many other races waiting above Trenzalore. Realising this, the Doctor indeed never spoke his name, and so the Siege ultimately ended with the Time Lords remaining in their [[pocket universe]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Time of the Doctor (TV story)|The Time of the Doctor]]'') Eventually, [[Gallifrey]] returned to the universe in a more discrete manner, at the [[end of the universe]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Hell Bent (TV story)|Hell Bent]]'')
