Having not watched [[The Invasion of Time]] in a while, I can't verify this, but I seem to recall the Transduction Barrier working similarly to the way davros hid the 27 planets in the Medusa Cascade. | Having not watched [[The Invasion of Time]] in a while, I can't verify this, but I seem to recall the Transduction Barrier working similarly to the way davros hid the 27 planets in the Medusa Cascade. It put the Gallifrey system seven seconds out of phase from the rest of the universe, rendering it inaccessible unless one were piloting a TARDIS. Anyone got a copy handy to check?

Once or twice, haven't they said Gallifrey is 250 million light years away? | Once or twice, haven't they said Gallifrey is 250 million light years away? (Definitely said that in the 1996 film and possibly somewhere in the TV series) That would put it in a different galaxy, about 100 times farther away than Andromeda.

It seems so. [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v283/factorialinfinity/prlggallifrey.jpg I have proof.] Tell me those aren't the coordinates for Gallifrey! (The picture does not have the entire coordinates, but the whole thing is mentioned in the episode "Green Courage" of PW: Lost Galaxy.) | It seems so.

Those are the co-ordinates, but that's likely an in-joke rather than the actual planet. Plus, Power Rangers isn't licenced by the BBC. -- [[User:Tybort|Tybort]] 23:03, July 18, 2011 (UTC) | |||

:I have a question on this as well. In the 1996 TV Movie, Gallifrey and the Time Lords still exist. But, by the time of the episode [[Rose]], the planet and the Time Lords have been destroyed. My question is, is there anything written, (ie: novel, etc) that outlines what happened, and was it the 8th or 9th Doctor that actually destroyed everything? | :I have a question on this as well.

: The Time War was established in the episode ''[[The End of the World (TV story)|The End of the World]]'' (with it loosely alluded to in the previous episode ''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]''). Nothing's outlined the history of the Time War (or the Eighth Doctor's regeneration) in any detail; just that the Doctor ended it, and that various combatants escaped the Time Lock at various points. I'm not familiar enough with Time Lord lore to explain the "did it never exist" bit (I wouldn't assume so; no less than three races that never fought in or were otherwise effected by the war remember the Time Lords), but I think Gallifrey has its own laws on time. Also, Gallifrey HAS been destroyed in other media, though [[Russell T Davies]] specified they have nothing to do with its fall in The Last Great Time War, implying that these were undone. -- [[User:Tybort|Tybort]] 23:03, July 18, 2011 (UTC) | |||
