Forum:Eighth Doctor Books and Audio, which take place first?

Assuming both are canon, do the Big Finish Audios featuring the Eighth Doctor (the monthly releases and the new EDAs) or the BBC Books Eighth Doctor Adventures take place first (from the Doctor's perspective). TemporalSpleen 18:02, February 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Have a look at Eighth Doctor - Timeline, this a timeline this wiki uses in order to assist in the placement of stories in the Timeline sections of articles. --Tangerineduel

I suggest that the wiki timeline should be changed, this is because of new accounts such as the company of friends that suggets the big finish audios take place after the books and comics. i think that BBC Books Eighth Doctor Adventures take place first (with the comics filling the gap between the eight doctors and vampire science) then after gallifrey is presumably restored after the gallifrey chronicles the Big finish audio adventures occur with the new gallifrey in place and romana being set back to the regeneration she was when she assumed office (2nd).

 * Well, Eighth Doctor - Timeline says it's based on the Doctor Who Reference Guide. And it should be noted that the DWRG itself has changed its mind, along the lines that Revanvolatrelundar suggests. As for it being "the timeline this wiki uses", um, says who exactly? I don't recall a vote on that.  Czech Out  ☎ | ✍ 17:44, February 4, 2010 (UTC)

The Reference guide has changed since i last looked i must admit, but i still believed the BFA's should be placed after the BBC books in the timeline.Revanvolatrelundar 18:28, February 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * I don't really know how it came about, I think as Doug86 was working through the Timeline sections the user in question came up with a list that could be referred back to. Perhaps a re-wording at the top of all the timeline articles along the same lines as the History of the Daleks page is in order something like: "This is one attempt to place all the appearances of the X Doctor in a concise timeline. The Doctor's history is somewhat convoluted at times." --Tangerineduel 14:43, February 5, 2010 (UTC)
