Theory talk:Timeline - Norton Folgate

Parasite
On this timeline, we've placed Torchwood: Parasite before God Among Us. On the official Torchwood timeline, we've placed it after God Among Us in the period when Andy is working alone, leading up to Doctor Who: Stranded. I'll be listening to Parasite very soon to see if I can work out which is correct but if anyone has any information that can clear up which placement is more accurate, then we can rectify it. :) The  Farty  Doctor   Talk  15:55, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

It's on the timeline twice. Once from Norton's perspective and then again from Andy's. It takes place in the 1950s, and Andy travels back from the 2010s. The placements as they stand are as correct as they can be with the information that we have. SarahJaneFan ☎  16:30, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

God Among Us?
on this timeline and the torchwood one, why has the god among us stories been placed just before madam i'm and the soho box sets.

goodbye piccadilly, madam im, parasite, and ashenden all naratively lead into each other. where black knight goes is beyond me but slotting god among us where it is feels wrong.

norton is stuck back in the time loop at the end of GAU2 and he hasnt gotten out yet as far as im aware, so that should go last?


 * In terms of his development it makes far more sense that it’s all more or less in release order. Particularly as there’s no suggestion that he’s meeting Andy out of order and it does go in release order for him. In God Among Us, Goodbye Piccadilly is the last time Andy and Norton met. At least from Andy’s perspective anyway. And again there’s no suggestion that they have out of order meetings. Norton gets himself into scrapes all the time, just because where he ends up at the end of GAU has been explicitly resolved doesn’t mean it’s his end. Basically every audio he appears in features him wriggling his way out of situations just like that. GAU was the end of his involvement with the committee and him finally deciding to stand with Torchwood and the human race, these are themes that the Soho series picks up on.

Madam I'm, 1955 or 1957?
From the Norton Folgate timeline:


 * AUDIO: Madam, I'm


 * Norton is working with Lizbeth Hayhoe in Room 13, setting this between Goodbye Piccadilly and Parasite. Norton wonders if they should do something about the Suez Canal crisis, which based on real world information would place this story in early 1957,

From the Torchwood timeline:


 * AUDIO: Madam, I'm


 * Norton is working with Lizbeth Hayhoe in Room 13, setting this between Goodbye Piccadilly and Parasite. Lizbeth implies that 8 June that year was a Wednesday which, using real-world knowledge, would place this story in 1955.

1957. SarahJaneFan ☎
