At some point near the end of the [[Seventh Doctor]]'s life, he began to use a [[TARDIS control room]] which resembled a '''victorian parlour'''. This console room was then inherited by the [[Eighth Doctor]] ([[TV]]: ''[[Doctor Who (TV story)|Doctor Who]]''), who used it with the majority of his companions. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Eight Doctors (novel)|The Eight Doctors]], [[The Taint (novel)]], [[Interference (novel)|Interference]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[Storm Warning]], [[Blood of the Daleks (audio story)|Blood of the Daleks]], [[The Great War (audio story)|The Great War]]'', et al.)

==Description==
This console room was much larger than any that came before or after it. Additionally, the actual [[TARDIS control console]] was not the main feature - like most other models - but instead one feature in the middle. A homely [[fireplace]] was in one corner, with an [[arm chair]] next to it, which the Doctor often read in. The walls all around where covered in books, including in an alcove to the side.
Contrasting with the Doctor's prior console room(s), this one was not at all evenly lit, with multiple light sources focusing attention on different areas, creating an all-round homely feel. ([[TV]]: ''[[Doctor Who]]'').
