Schedule

A schedule was a plan for future events. To be on schedule was to follow optimal timing, (TV: The Time Meddler et al) and one could be early, or ahead of schedule, (TV: The Faceless Ones et al) as well as late, or behind schedule. (TV: The Savages et al) Delays could interfere with a schedule. (TV: The Dalek Invasion of Earth et al) Schedules could be computerised (TV: The Ice Warriors) or on paper. (TV: The Faceless Ones)

Space travel often involved schedules, particularly for liftoff or re-entry. (TV: The Ambassadors of Death) Major projects, such as the Inferno Project, also stuck to schedules. (TV: Inferno) Other things that operated on schedules included cargo ships, (TV: Frontier in Space) maintenance, (TV: Logopolis) buses, (TV: Rosa) and trains. (TV: Nikola Tesla's Night of Terror)

K9 Mark II once took time out of his "busy schedule" in order to interview himself. (PROSE: K9)
