Theory:Timeline - Doctor Who universe/TV

This page lists the order of television stories in the Doctor Who universe timeline from the pre-universe to the after-universe with a focus on events between Event One and the far future. This timeline is based upon observations of the Doctor Who universe and the events that occur during each of these stories.

Timeline rules:
 * Only list stories. References to dates that the story does not take place in are to be excluded.
 * Stories without any clear indication of an era should be omitted. (e.g. TV: Mummy on the Orient Express)
 * Many stories will contradict each other, so these contradictions should be noted but treated equally. (e.g. TV: The Enemy of the World and other stories set in 2018)
 * Direct quotes indicating the time period the story takes place should be provided. (Quotes sourced from another story should indicate the story it is from.)

The Power of Three dating controversy

 * All 21st century stories featuring the Amy and Rory Pond after The God Complex should be placed here. See The Power of Three dating controversy.


 * Autumn 2011 - TV: The God Complex
 * The Doctor gives Amy Pond and Rory Williams a new house. A common theory to explain this dating controversy is that the Doctor dropped Amy and Rory off a few years in the past, but Amy is a famous model in 2011 would certainly draw the attention of their families and their past selves.

 * After Autumn 2011? - TV: Closing Time
 * NOTE: Amy is now a famous model for Petichor, implying this story is set after The God Complex. However, the Colchester Evening News is dated 19th April 2011. That date is problematic because Amy and Rory would need to be in Utah in only a few days, Amy is unfamiliar with the word petrichor in The Doctor's Wife, and Alfie is rather old given Craig and Sofie started their relationship in 2010.
