Theory:Timeline - Class

This page lists appearances of the Coal Hill defenders entrusted with the protection of Coal Hill School by the Twelfth Doctor. This timeline is based upon observations of the Doctor Who universe and the events that occur during each of these stories. From these observations we have attempted to build a concise timeline. It is assumed that for each novel, comic, audio or television series, their published, broadcast or numbered order is the order they occur in.
