In [[1939]], the [[Seventh Doctor]] called the [[SS]] soldiers who had been conditioned by the [[War Lord]]s, zombies. These troops were able to avoid death owing to a literal realisation of the [[Prussia]]n [[military]] phrase, "[[corpse]] discipline": discipline that could make a corpse jump to attention. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Timewyrm: Exodus (novel)|Timewyrm: Exodus]]'') He later encountered much more conventional zombies on [[Arviem 2]] with [[Bernice Summerfield]]; the result of a latent magnetronic field placed upon a swamp to convert and reanimate any dead organic matter, these zombies retained higher brain functions, and sometimes did not realise what they had become. They nonetheless harbored a desire to eat people's [[brain]]s, preferably highly developed ones. As they were essentially walking corpses, the zombies kept decaying, and occasionally lost body parts; they did not appear able to feel this when it happened, and would remark curiously on how odd it was that they suddenly found organs on the ground around them.

In [[2008]], [[Sarah Jane Smith]] watched the people who had drunken [[Bubble Shock!]], were under the control of the [[Bane Mother]] and were calling "Drink it". Sarah Jane thought they were spreading out like an army of zombies. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Invasion of the Bane (novelisation)|Invasion of the Bane]]'') A few time later [[Chrissie Jackson]] also compared these people to zombies.
