In 2014, (COMIC: The Fractures) while trying to work out how a forest had grown on Earth overnight, the Twelfth Doctor compared a tree to a time machine, and determined that this had to have happened due to messing with the fabric of time, as "you [couldn't] create a whole overnight forest with extra special fertiliser". He referred to a hypothetical scenario, where "[y]ou plant[ed] a little acorn in 1795, and in the year 2016, there [was] an oak tree, there in the same spot, with a tiny, little bit of 1795 still alive inside of it." (TV: In the Forest of the Night)

In July, the Twelfth Doctor joined an internet forum under the name ThetaSigma. He wrote an extremely negative post about an episode of a television series. (COMIC: Planet of the Rude) In August, the Celestial Hyperloop Corporation began using a wormhole that started in Shirov-three and passed through San Francisco. The wormhole began mutating people, first by giving them inhuman strength and flight, then by transforming them into gargoyle-like creatures. Martha Jones came to San Francisco to investigate while her husband Mickey Smith was busy in the Czech Republic, but she mutated into a Gargoyle.

Mickey followed Martha to San Francisco and realised that he was out of his depth and tried to get the attention of the Tenth Doctor. Instead, he brought the Ninth Doctor to San Francisco with Rose Tyler and Jack Harkness. The Ninth Doctor helped Mickey and Martha while also keeping Rose and Jack away to preserve the Web of Time. Rose and Jack met a group of young people who had begun mutating and Rose began mutating as well. Rose and the others flew into the wormhole and caused its stabilisers to break. The Doctor, Mickey, and Martha stopped the wormhole from hurting anyone when it collapsed. The effects the wormhole had on people wore off. (COMIC: The Transformed)

In autumn, on Maxwell Edison's 60th birthday, the Twelfth Doctor came to Stockbridge with plans to bring down Josiah W. Dogbolter's criminal empire with the help of several old friends. He froze the entire population of Stockbridge, save Maxwell, so that nobody would be hurt during the plan. Frobisher impersonated Chiyoko and brought Dogbolter from the future to 2016. Dogbolter was then brought to St Justinian's Church, where he confronted the Doctor. During the confrontation he admitted to killing countless people. Sharon Allen filmed the entire confrontation and brought the video back to Dogbolter's time, where Dogbolter was arrested. The Doctor then brought Maxwell to Cornucopia, where they celebrated Maxwell's 60th birthday with Frobisher, Sharon, Izzy Sinclair, Destrii, and Majenta Pryce. (COMIC: The Stockbridge Showdown)

On 12 October, a Shadow Kin came through the space-time rift in Coal Hill looking for Charlie and Quill. Quill had the student Kevin Williams shoot it with a displacement gun, killing both himself and the Shadow Kin.

On 13 October, April MacLean encountered Charlie and Miss Quill while she was decorating for the autumn prom and learned that they were aliens. Corakinus came through the rip and Quill tried to make April shoot him with the displacement gun. Charlie interfered and April only skimmed Corakinus with the gun. This made her share a heart with Corakinus. Seeing he could not kill April without killing himself, Corakinus left before telling Charlie and Quill he would attack the next day.

On 14 October, Coal Hill Academy held its Autumn Prom. During the prom, the Shadow Kin came to Coal Hill. Ram Singh's girlfriend Rachel Chapman was killed and everyone attending the prom was terrified. Miss Quill called the Twelfth Doctor and asked for help. When Charlie and Quill were corned in the Coal Hill school hall, the Doctor arrived and, with the help of Tanya Adeola, weakened the Shadow Kin with the school's lights. The Shadow Kin were pushed back through the space-time rip and the Doctor brought together Quill, Charlie, April, Ram, Tanya, and Matteusz near the Coal Hill School Roll of Honours Board and tasked them with the role of protecting Coal Hill from further alien attacks. (TV: For Tonight We Might Die) The rest of the students quickly forgot about the Shadow Kin.

About a week later, the Coal Hill defenders had their second alien encounter. Ram stumbled into two murders committed by a skin-peeling dragon, on 24 and 25 October. Meanwhile, Miss Quill found herself being spied on by a robot sent by the Governors, disguised as an Ofsted inspector. A second skin-peeling dragon came to Coal Hill, and killed the headteacher Mr Armitage, as well as the robot inspector, on 27 October. Ram realised that the dragons he and his friends had seen resembled the dragon tattoo on Coach Dawson, and the team confronted Dawson shortly afterwards. They learned that one dragon had been fused to Dawson and the second dragon was her mate. The second dragon joined this confrontation and, after some encouragement from Ram, grabbed Dawson and took him through the space-time rip to wherever the dragons originated from. (TV: The Coach with the Dragon Tattoo)

Later in the month of October, the Lankin came through the space-time rift in Coal Hill to feed on the grief of the inhabitants of Shoreditch. The tips of its appendages morphed into deceased loved ones and tricked many into touching the Lankin and being fed off of. After snaring the rest of her family, the Lankin sensed a large amount of grief in Tanya caused by the death of her father. The Lankin's "main branch" came to Tanya's window and impersonated her father. Tanya saw through the Lankin's attempts to mimic her father and instead of feeding the Lankin her grief, she fed it anger. This weakened the Lankin enough that when Miss Quill drove a bus into its main branch it retreated its appendages back through the rift and away from Earth. After this, Matteusz began living with Charlie and Quill. (TV: Nightvisiting)

A few weeks after the Coal Hill defenders were formed and after Matteusz began living with Charlie, practically all of the students at Coal Hill were kidnapped by aliens and taken to a facility in the Void where they were tricked into eradicating the Skandis so the aliens could sell the Skandis homeplanet. A month earlier, the aliens had made a deal with the popular vlogger Seraphin. Through Seraphin, they attracted young people to the website and encouraged them to film themselves doing dangerous and daring things and then post it online. Those that did were taken to the facility and given drugs and virtual reality helmets which helped them kill the Skandis. After the Coal Hill defenders were taken to the facility, April and Tanya befriended Seraphin and used him to access the facility's dimensional technology and break it. Without a working facility, the aliens could not continue their money-making scheme, so they sent all the students back to Earth. However, they still made a considerable amount of money through selling footage of the students fighting. (PROSE: What She Does Next Will Astound You)

In mid-November, a single petal-like creature drifted through the rift. On this day, Dorothea Ames began her job as the new headteacher at Coal Hill. Also on this day, the bond between April and Corakinus was strengthened when Rannus gave Corakinus an anchor of a life blood. As the day progressed, the petals began feeding off of small animals and multiplying and April began having violent outbursts which were only made worse by her father Huw. After school ended, Dorothea Ames asked for Miss Quill's assistance in dealing with the petals and April almost killed her father. Fearing that Corakinus would come to Earth searching for her and kill everyone, April went through the rift to the Underneath to confront him at his home. She was followed by Ram. (TV: Co-Owner of a Lonely Heart)

As the petals began reaching numbers in which they could kill humans, April and Ram made their way to Corakinus' castle. Tanya, Varun Singh, Huw MacLean, and Jackie MacLean hid from the petals in Coal Hill Academy while Miss Quill, Charlie, Matteusz, and Ames went to 1 Wellington Road to use the Cabinet of Souls to eradicate the petals. However, Charlie was tempted to use it to destroy the Shadow Kin. Before he had to make a choice, April bested Corakinus in battle and returned to Earth through her link with her mother. As the new king of the Shadow Kin, April ordered them to destroy all of the petals and then return to the Underneath sealing the way behind them. With humanity saved, the Cabinet of Souls remained unused. At this time, the anchor of life blood wore off and April lost her connection to the Shadow Kin. (TV: Brave-ish Heart)

A few days later, Miss Quill put the Coal Hill Defenders in detention while she got her arn removed. By complete chance, an asteroid prison carrying the psychic essence of a mass murderer fell through the Coal Hill rift and into the classroom where the gang were serving detention, transforming it into a prison. For 45 minutes, they tried to figure out how to escape and gradually became more and more angry with each other due to the effects of the asteroid. When Charlie went into communion with the prisoner, he was able to kill it, returning the classroom to normal. By this time Quill was finished as well and she returned to her students and destroyed the asteroid. (TV: Detained)

Unknown dates
Professor Nakatomi bought a Kaznak Simu-System off of the black market to create a video game system. He tested it by having it physically create the dreams of two young boys. The boys dreamt about two monsters from an action figure series, causing the Simu-System to create two giant monsters that fought each other in the streets, destroying building and cars. UNIT arrived on the scene, but were unsuccessful in dealing with the monsters. The Twelfth Doctor arrived in Japan looking for ramen and encountered UNIT. He used his sonic screwdriver to find the Simu-System, and then made it create his dreams instead of the boys'. The monsters briefly became a giant Twelfth Doctor before vanishing. Nakatomi was then arrested by UNIT. (COMIC: Big in Japan)

The Transhuman Sisters of the Unholy Protocol came to Hexford searching for, who had been trapped without form in his TARDIS since 1984. They killed Michael Masterson, who was guarding the TARDIS, but were unable to get into it. While Masterson's brother put the TARDIS up for auction to attract the killer, the Transhuman Sisters waited for a Time Lord who would be able to get into the TARDIS. The Fifth Doctor came to the auction and encountered one of the Sisters. The Sisters captured the Doctor, the TARDIS, and three children who had had the Master's life essence in them since 1984. After the Sisters were deactivated by two dragonmasters, the Master's mind left his TARDIS and went into the body of Michael Masterson's brother. The Master retrieved his essence from the children and left in his TARDIS. The Doctor left shortly afterwards to return to his travels and UNIT cleaned up the mess left by the Sisters' crashed spaceship. (AUDIO: And You Will Obey Me)

After the Cult of the Heretic swapped the minds of the and his future bald incarnation, the younger Master was left thinking he had regenerated into the bald Master. However, he lacked any memory of regenerating. (AUDIO: The Two Masters) He returned to an island prison where he once set up a Carmentine Mind Leach trap. When he found that he had caught a Mind Leach, he came up with a plan to lure the Doctor to the island and use the Mind Leach to transfer the Doctor's memories into himself.

The Master set up the Dominus Institute on the island and hypnotised Andrew Gobenar into being its puppet-leader. He then began masquerading as a scientist at the institute named Damien Scott. To attract the Doctor's attention and keep the Leach alive, the Master began luring the planet's smartest scientists to the Dominus Institute and draining them of intelligence. When the Sixth Doctor came to London looking for Professor Threadstone, Threadstone had already went to the island and many scientists, including Kenneth Albrecht and Arthur Makeling, had had their minds drained. The Doctor and Threadstone's daughter came to the island and put a stop to the Master's plans. The Doctor made a deal with the Mind Leach so that she only gave the Master his short-term memories. The Master tried to make the Leach take all of the Doctor's memories, but only succeeded in destroying all of his equipment and killing all of mind-drained scientists and the Leach. The Master ran away and the Doctor was left with little memory of the incident. (AUDIO: Vampire of the Mind) An agent of the older Master observed the entire scheme. (AUDIO: The Two Masters)

The Twelfth Doctor visited the annual UK Book Festival, where he encountered Charles Abbott: an alien who masqueraded as a human to write popular children's books.

The Doctor and Eliza saved Sammy and trapped Abbott in a stasis jail cell. (COMIC: Shock Horror)
