Theory:Timeline - First Doctor

This page lists appearances of the First Doctor in the order in which he experienced them. This timeline is based upon observations of the Doctor Who universe and the events that occur during each of these stories. From these observations we have attempted to build a concise timeline. It is assumed, much like its TV story counterparts that for each novel, comic story and audio series their published/numbered order is the order they occur in. This does not apply to short stories which are often ambiguous about their placement. There are also many gaps between stories.

The layout of this timeline is in part based on the observations on Doctor Who Reference Guide and Doctor Who - The Complete Adventures, as well as information in Lance Parkin's AHistory which allow us to make observations on placement of stories, such as Doctor Who Reviews, Doc Oho's Book Reviews, The History of Doctor Who, The Discontinuity Guide, Clive Banks Databank, Whopix, the Big Finish forums, The Whoniverse and the Divergent Universe forums. None of these sources should be used solely as a source or considered a "true" timeline for stories.

Additionally there are statements on the back of Virgin Missing Adventures and BBC Past Doctor Adventures novels that state between which TV stories the novel takes place between. These can be used to narrow the field, and should be viewed as the only placing for these novels.

Arrival in 1963
Accounts differ as to when exactly the Doctor and Susan arrived in 76 Totter's Lane. In An Unearthly Child, Susan refers to "the happiest [five] months of her life" in November, implying she's been in Shoreditch since around June. This was reaffirmed in Operation Proteus, where Raldonn claims to have noticed the the Doctor's arrival in London four months prior. Ground Zero confirms that Operation Proteus took place in October 1963. Hunters of Earth is also set in October 1963 and on multiple occasions indicates that they had been there for four months. Indeed, The Time Lord Letters contains Susan's application for admission, dated to 21 June 1963.

According to Time and Relative, however, Susan had already been in Shoreditch for five months by March, though she acknowledges that the Doctor's "tinkering" with the TARDIS had been throwing her timekeeping out. In The Rag & Bone Man's Story, the Doctor had allegedly been paying rent to the owner of the junkyard, Hawkins, for nine months prior to his departure in November.

Placement of The Five Doctors
There are at least two contradictory accounts of when The Five Doctors takes place in the First Doctor's personal time-stream.

The first account, the 1994 Brief Encounter Roses, establishes that the Doctor travels to a rose garden shortly after the events of The Daleks' Master Plan to recover from the loss of several friends in quick succession, while Steven Taylor rests in the TARDIS. This is when he is time-scooped by Borusa and involved in the events of The Five Doctors.

However, the 1998 Past Doctor Adventure The Witch Hunters establishes a period of time where the First Doctor is travelling alone with complete control of his TARDIS and tying up loose ends as the result of "a boon granted by Rassilon after the Death Zone affair", which he uses to deal with "unfinished business" before "he let his first life end". During the story, the Doctor signs his name as "Benjamin Jackson", heavily implying a placement after The War Machines.

TV Comics placement
The First Doctor's travels with John and Gillian are very difficult to place in the Doctor's timeline, as between The Experimenters and The Extortioner, the Doctor is inexplicably replaced by his second incarnation.

The stories Conundrum and The Land of Happy Endings hypothesise that these adventures are either stories created by the Master of the Land of Fiction or the Doctor's dreams.

"The coldest place in the world" conundrum
All adventures featuring the First Doctor, Ben and Polly were originally supposed to lead into each other, which created a problem for stories featuring them between The Smugglers and The Tenth Planet, as they depicted Ben and Polly's first and last adventure with the First Doctor respectively. At first, the solution was simple; writers merely ignored this fact, though PROSE: The Three Paths took advantage of the ambiguity of the statement "coldest place in the world" to reveal that they had many adventures set in mostly cold places. The Bonfires of the Vanities eventually gave an explanation as to how to insert more adventures into the same gap.
