Moving In (comic story)

 was a comic story published in Doctor Who Magazine in 2016. Picking up from where The Pestilent Heart left off, it depicted the Twelfth Doctor moving in with Jess Collins and her family, fully beginning the short story arc in which the Doctor is invited to live under their roof following the TARDIS being temporarily put out of commission.

It was split into four, three-page vignettes, which each depicted the Doctor getting to know each member of the Collins family.

 * The Doctor muses over the fact that Space Invaders hasn't been invented yet.
