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 or outright state a year. Nonetheless, in the [[2006 (releases)|2006]] ''Doctor Who'' television story ''[[Love & Monsters (TV story)|Love & Monsters]]'', [[Elton Pope]] directly describes the events of the [[2005 (releases)|2005]] ''Doctor Who'' television story ''Rose'' as "two years ago" and the 2005 ''Doctor Who'' Christmas special ''[[The Christmas Invasion (TV story)|The Christmas Invasion]]'' as "[[Christmas]] just gone". In the ''Doctor Who'' television story ''[[School Reunion (TV story)|School Reunion]]'', also from 2006, [[Sarah Jane Smith|Sarah Jane]] describes the [[Sycorax spaceship|giant ship]] over [[London]] from ''Invasion'' similarly as "Christmas just gone". | 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 or outright state a year.

[Doctor Who] The ''Doctor Who'' television story ''[[The Runaway Bride (TV story)|The Runaway Bride]]'', featuring [[Donna Noble]], notes [[Battle of Canary Wharf|the Cyberman invasion in Canary Wharf]] from Rose's last regular appearance in the ''Doctor Who'' television stories ''[[Army of Ghosts (TV story)|Army of Ghosts]]'' and ''[[Doomsday (TV story)|Doomsday]]'' as having happened, and describes ''The Christmas Invasion''{{'}}s robot Santas as being from "last year". This would set that story (along with Rose's "present" during [[Series 2 (Doctor Who)|series 2]]) in [[2007]]. The ''Doctor Who'' Christmas special ''[[Voyage of the Damned (TV story)|Voyage of the Damned]]'' also mentioned the people around the world standing on roofs from ''The Christmas Invasion'' taking place "[the] Christmas before last", and the [[Webstar|giant Christmas star over London]] and the draining of the [[River Thames|Thames]] from ''The Runaway Bride'' happening "last year", which both affirms the Martha Jones era (which mentions the Christmas star) and this episode as having taken place in 2008. | [Doctor Who] The ''Doctor Who'' television story ''[[The Runaway Bride (TV story)|The Runaway Bride]]'', featuring [[Donna Noble]], notes [[Battle of Canary Wharf|the Cyberman invasion in Canary Wharf]] from Rose's last regular appearance in the ''Doctor Who'' television stories ''[[Army of Ghosts (TV story)|Army of Ghosts]]'' and ''[[Doomsday (TV story)|Doomsday]]'' as having happened, and describes ''The Christmas Invasion''{{'}}s robot Santas as being from "last year".

[Torchwood] Several ''Torchwood'' stories are explicitly set in the aftermath of the [[Battle of Canary Wharf]], which was Rose's last regular appearance as a companion. This would mean that up to and including the ''Torchwood'' television story ''[[Out of Time (TV story)|Out of Time]]'', which is set around Christmas (and according to the ''Torchwood'' television story ''[[Captain Jack Harkness (TV story)|Captain Jack Harkness]]'', has [[Diane Holmes|Diane]] go through the Rift on [[24 December]]), [[Series 1 (Torchwood)|series 1]] is set in the year [[2007]]. The ''Torchwood'' television stories ''[[Combat (TV story)|Combat]]'' and ''Captain Jack Harkness'' are clearly not set immediately after ''Time'' and so the last episodes of series 1, including ''Combat'' and ''Harkness'', can be safely said to be set in [[2008]]. | [Torchwood] Several ''Torchwood'' stories are explicitly set in the aftermath of the [[Battle of Canary Wharf]], which was Rose's last regular appearance as a companion.
