The Tenth Doctor decided to take Rose to Slough to visit William Herschel's 40-foot telescope, where they met Chevalier D'Eon. After travelling to Christopher Dalliard's house, Rose spent her time trying to find the aliens that the Doctor had located. She was then enchanted by Joxer and Hempel to be sold as a slave and managed to escape the ship and rescued Darcy and the rest of the slaves. (AUDIO: The Sword of the Chevalier)

When a Nestene control sphere was falling to Earth in the 2010s, Petronella Osgood narrowed down the landing site to a 15 mile radius with three high-density population areas. Josh Carter commented "God help us if it lands on Slough". When Colonel Shindi suggested that they shoot it down, Osgood noted it would spread the debris over a wider area, to which Carter replied "Goodbye Slough, and Reading". (AUDIO: Vanguard)
