Forum:"Children of Earth" takes place in late 2009: confirm/deny?

evidence for September 2009
freeze-framing a newspaper headline in "Day Two" shows a date of "September 2009". (the paper looks like a daily, but it has a blank in front of the September.) any solid evidence that the story doesn't take place then? (other than the usual assumption that the two spin-off shows take place a year from today.) the Radio Four Torchwood radio plays explicitly take place in 2009. they don't say which month, though.) --Stardizzy2 21:40, 15 July 2009 (UTC)


 * It occurring in 2009 doesn't seem to cause any issues. It just means 2009 is a pretty bad year for Earth all things considered.
 * So the only thing for the placement in 2010 category is the (relatively established) fact that the Earth based TV stories occur a year ahead of 'now'? --Tangerineduel 15:17, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
 * On screen evidence would overrule the "year ahead" theory. --Raukodraug 18:08, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

It seems like it's set in 2010. Why? Because Journey's End is set in 2009. SJA series 2 is set after Journey's end. TWCoE is set in 2010.

Simply, it's set in the summer of 2010.
